What causes attraction and repulsion between atoms?

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Repulsive forces exist only when atoms are very close to each other. (3/14) "They [the atoms] will approach until both nuclei will simply shove each other because both of them are positive." The balance between the attraction and repulsion forces determines how close the atoms can get. The relationships between the magnitude and direction of repulsive and attractive forces. A stable state of a bond is when attractive forces balance repulsion forces. “A stable state between two atoms is when they attract each other with a force that equals the force that they repel each other.”

Which can lead scientists to change a theory that has already been accepted? Check all that apply. changes to scientific laws ne

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

New experimental methods

Technological inventions

Explanation:

A scientific theory is usually not based on speculation. Scientific theories must have a solid empirical basis.

However, experimental methods are limited to the caliber of equipments available at the time in which a theory is formulated. With advancing years, more technological sophistication leads to the invention of new instruments and ultimately, the development of new experimental methods.

These innovations are likely to alter existing scientific theories as new evidences emerge, hence the answer.

If the percent yield for the following reaction is 75.0%, and 25.0 g of NO₂ are consumed in the reaction, how many grams of nitr

victus00 [196]

Answer:

17.1195 grams of nitric acid are produced.

Explanation:

$3NO_2+H_2O\rightarrow 2HNO_3+NO$

Moles of nitrogen dioxide :

$\frac{25.0 g}{56 g/mol}=0.5434 mol$

According to reaction 3 moles of nitrogen dioxides gives 2 moles of nitric acid.

Then 0.5434 moles of nitrogen dioxides will give:

$\frac{2}{3}\times 0.5434 mol=0.3623 mol$ of nitric acid.

Mass of 0.3623 moles of nitric acid :

$0.3623 mol\times 63 g/mol=22.8260 g$

Theoretical yield = 22.8260 g

Experimental yield = ?

$\%Yield=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$75\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{22.8260 g}$

Experimental yield of nitric acid = 17.1195 g

What are the atomic number and mass number of this atom

lina2011 [118]

No diagram is given therefore I cannot answer however, use this for reference.
The atomic mass of an atom would be the number of protons PLUS the number of neutrons. Because this atom shown has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, they add up to 12. In this case, the atomic mass of this atom is 12. Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, in this case it is 6. The atomic number is 6.
