Ca(OH)2

Make sure your charges are balanced when you write the compound. Ca has a +2 charge and OH has a -1 charge so you need 2 of OH.

Compound Y has the elements C, H, N and O. It's exact mass is 91.0425. Answer the following questions. Isotope Exact Mass 1H 1.0
Talja [164]

Answer:

Six C atoms (C₆); five H atoms (H₅); one N atom (N); no O atoms

Explanation:

The rule of 13 states that the formula of a compound is a multiple n of 13 (the molar mass of CH) plus a remainder r.

MF = CₙHₙ₊ᵣ

Y has a molecular mass of 91 u

91/13 =7r0

The formula can't be C₇H₇ because a hydrocarbon must have an even number of H atoms,

The odd mass and the odd number of H atoms make it reasonable to add an N atom and subtract CH₂ (CH₂ = 14):

C₇H₇ + N - CH₂ = C₆H₅N

Check:

6C = 6 × 12.000 = 72.000 u

5H = 5 ×   1.008 =   5.040

1N =  1 × 14.003 =  <u>14.003    </u>

             TOTAL =   91.043 u

This is excellent agreement with the observed mass of 91.0425 u.

There are six  C atoms (C₆)

There are five H atoms (H₅)

There is    one N atom   (N)

There are no   O atoms.

2. Write the charge of each sub-atomic particle in the helium atom above.
algol [13]

Explanation:

The charge of a helium atom is zero

It is neutral because

The number of unit negative charges = number of unit positive charges

One unit negative charge = -1.6 x 10^(-19) which is basically the charge of an electron

One unit positive charge = +1.6 x 10^(-19) which is basically the charge of a proton

A helium atom has 2 protons and 2 electrons, so it is neutral

NOTE: an alpha-particle (He2+) is a charged helium atom it has 2 protons and 0 electrons. Charge of an alpha particle = +3.2 x 10^(-19).
