How can you find the number of neutrons that are in an atom of an element

Chemistry
1 answer:
Temka [501]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

You just have to take the periodic table of the elements, take the element that interests you. Then, you look at the formula of the element, at the top left you find the number of neutrons and protons and at the bottom left you find the number of protons. Then you just have to make the number from the top left minus the number from the bottom left.

A 115.0-g sample of oxygen was produced by heating 400.0 g of potassium chlorate.2KClO3 Right arrow. 2KCI + 3O2What is the perce
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

73.4% is the percent yield

Explanation:

2KClO₃ →  2KCl  + 3O₂

This is a decomposition reaction, where 2 moles of potassium chlorate decompose to 2 moles of potassium chloride and 3 moles of oxygen.

We determine the moles of salt: 400 g . 1. mol /122.5g= 3.26 moles of KClO₃

In the theoretical yield of the reaction we say:

2 moles of potassium chlorate can produce 3 moles of oxygen

Therefore, 3.26 moles of salt, may produce (3.26 . 3) /2 = 4.89 moles of O₂

The mass of produced oxygen is: 4.89 mol . 32 g /1mol = 156.6g

But, we have produced 115 g. Let's determine the percent yield of reaction

Percent yield = (Produced yield/Theoretical yield) . 100

(115g / 156.6g) . 100 = 73.4 %

A chemist measures the energy change ?H during the following reaction: 2HgO (s) ?2Hg (l) +O2 (g) =?H182.kJ Use the information t
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

A. endothermic.

A. Yes, absorbed.

Explanation:

Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.

2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)  ΔH = 182 kJ

The enthalpy of the reaction is positive (ΔH > 0), which means that the reaction is endothermic.

182 kJ are absorbed when 2 moles of HgO react (molar mass 216.59 g/mol). The heat absorbed when 72.8 g of HgO react is:

72.8g.\frac{1mol}{216.59g} .\frac{182kJ}{2mol} =30.6kJ/mol

What is the molarity of 50.84 g of Na2CO3 dissolved in 0.400 L solution?
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

1.20 M

Explanation:

Convert grams of Na₂CO₃ to moles.  (50.84 g)/(105.99 g/mol) = 0.4797 mol

Molarity is (moles of solute)/(liters of solvent) = (0.4797 mol)/(0.400 L) = 1.20 M
