If an atom of Phosphorous has 17 neutrons, what is its mass number?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alina [70]3 years ago
4 0
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.

If all the water in 430.0 mL of a 0.45 M NaCI solution evaporates what is the mass of NaCI will remain
skad [1K]

Answer:

11.31 g.

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the no. of moles of a solute per 1.0 L of the solution.

M = (no. of moles of solute)/(V of the solution (L)).

<em>∴ M = (mass/molar mass)of NaCl/(V of the solution (L)).</em>

<em></em>

<em>∴ mass of NaCl remained after evaporation of water = (M)(V of the solution (L))(molar mass)</em> = (0.45 M)(0.43 L)(58.44 g/mol) = <em>11.31 g.</em>

A certain liquid X has a normal boiling point of 133.60°C and a boiling point elevation constant Kb= 2.46°C kg mol^-1.Calculate
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

136.63 °C

Explanation:

ΔTb=Tb solution - Tb pure

Where; Tb pure = 133.60°C

molar mass of solute = 121.14 g/mol

number of moles of solute; 52.2g/121.14 g/mol = 0.431 moles

molality = 0.431 moles/350 * 10^-3 = 1.23 molal

Then;

ΔTb = Kb * m * i

Kb = 2.46°C kg mol^-1

m = 1.23 molal

i = 1

ΔTb = 2.46 * 1.23 * 1

ΔTb = 3.03 °C

Hence;

Tb solution = ΔTb + Tb pure

Tb solution = 3.03 °C + 133.60°C

Tb solution = 136.63 °C

How many moles are there in 78.3g of CO2?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
The molar mass of CO2 can be calculated as follows;
CO2 — 12 + (16x2) = 12+ 32 = 44 g
Therefore molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol
In 44 g of CO2 there’s 1 mol of CO2
Then 1 g of CO2 there’s 1/44 mol of CO2
Therefore in 78.3 g of CO2 there’s — 1/44 x 78.3 =1.78 mol of CO2
