Answer:
32, 30 and 41
Explanation:
The problem here is to find the number of:
Protons, neutrons and electrons in Ge²⁺
In this ion,
We must understand that for a net positive charge to remain on an atom, the number of protons must be greater than the number of electrons.
Ge is Germanium with atomic number of 32;
So the number of protons is 32
Since the atom has lost two electrons;
Number of electrons now is 32 - 2 = 30
Number of neutrons is 41 from the periodic table.
Answer:
Solid:- Particles vibrate in a rigid structure and do not move relative to their neighbors.
Liquid:- It takes the shape of its container but keeps a constant volume.
Gas:- Particles move rapidly and independently of each other.
Plasma:- It is the most common state of matter in the universe.
Explanation:
Solids are one of the three states of matter and, unlike liquids or gases, they have a definite shape that is not easy to change. Different solids have particular properties such as stretch, STRENGTH, or hardness that make them useful for different jobs.
A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure
Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume. Gases have lower density than other states of matter, such as solids and liquids. When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container.
A plasma is a gas that has been energized to the point that some of the electrons break free from, but travel with, their nucleus.
Answer:
Empirical CHO
molecular C4H4O4
Explanation:
From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.
This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%
Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.
C = 41.39/12 = 3.45
O = 55.14/16 = 3.45
H = 3.47/1 = 3.47
Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.
Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO
Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.
To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.
Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g
Then 1 mole = xg
x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116
[CHO]n = 116
(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116
29n = 116
n = 116/29 = 4
The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4
The thermochemical equation is the chemical equation including the net change of enthalpy (heat).
The chemical equation for the decomposition of methanol to form methane and oxygen is:
2CH3OH --> 2CH4 + O2
The thermochemical equation is:
2CH3OH ---> 2CH4 + O2 - 252.8 kJ
Note that the heat is placed as negative at the right side because it is absorbed during the decomposition, so the environment will have 252.8 kJ less per each mole of O2 produced.
You can equivalently write:
2CH3OH + 252.8 kJ --> 2CH4 + O2
