Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of phosphorus is equal to the atomic number of phosphorus, which is 15. If an atom of phosphorus has 17 neutrons, then the mass number would be 15 protons + 17 neutrons = 32. Thus, the correct answer choice here is B.

A gas occupies a volume of 85.0 liters at a pressure of 2.24 atm and a temperature of 22.5 degrees celsius. How many moles of ga
White raven [17]

Answer:

n = 7.86 mol

Explanation:

This question can be solved using the ideal gas law of PV = nRT.

Temperature must be in K, so we will convert 22.5C to 295 K ( Kelvin = C + 273).

R is the ideal gas constant of 0.0821.

(2.24atm)(85.0L) = n(0.0821)(295K)

Isolate n to get:

n = (2.24atm)(85.0L)/(0.0821)(295K)

n = 7.86 mol

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The time taken for the cross mark to disappear decreases steadily down the column.

Explanation:

Now if we look at the data provided, we will discover that the volume of the HCl was held constant while the volume of the thiosulphate was increased steadily and the volume of water decreased steadily.

Recall that a system is more concentrated when it contains less volume of water and more volume of reactants. Hence as the volume of water in the system is being reduced, the concentration of reactants is increased.

It has been established that an increase in the concentration of reactants lead to an increase in the rate of reaction. The disappearance of the cross shows the completion of the reaction between HCl and thiosulphate. The faster or slower the cross disappears, the faster or slower the rate of reaction.

Since increase in concentration of reactants increases the rate of reaction, it is observed that as the volume of the thiosulphate increases (reactant concentration increases) the cross disappears faster (rate of reactant increases). Hence as the volume of thiosulphate increases, it takes a shorter time for the cross to disappear. This implies that the time column in the table (refer to the question) will decrease steadily as the volume of thiosulphate increases.

Law Incorporation [45]

Complete Question

To make use of an ionic hydrate for storing solar energy, you place 422.0 kg of sodium sulfate decahydrate on your house roof. Assuming complete reaction and 100% efficiency of heat transfer, how much heat (in kJ) is released to your house at night? Note that sodium sulfate decahydrate will transfer 354 kJ/mol.

Answer:

The amount of energy released is x = 4.63650 *10^5 KJ

Explanation:

Number of moles is mathematically represented as

                         n =\frac{mass}{Molar\ Mass}

substituting 422.0kg = 422 *10^3g for mass of sodium sulfate decahydrate(Na_2 SO_4 \cdot 10H_2 O), 322.2g/mol (This value is a constant )for the molar mass of sodium sulfate decahydrate

                        n= \frac{422*10^3}{322.2}

                           = 1309.7 \ moles

From the question we are told that

            1 mole of sodium sulfate decahydrate generates 354KJ of energy

         So  1309.7 mole would generate  x

Now stating the relation mathematically

                 1 mol → 354KJ

                 1309.7 mol → x

=>      x = 4.63650 *10^5 KJ
