Answer:

protons plus neutrons

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons.

The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom.

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

while the number of protons or number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

I’ve gotten the answer as x=.478 but when plugging back in, .46/.478 ≠ .22. Help please
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

15. 2.66 moles .

16. 2.09L.

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solvent. Mathematically, it is represented as:

Molarity = mole /Volume.

With the above formula, let us answer the questions given above

15. Data obtained from the question include the following:

Volume of solution = 1.4L

Molarity = 1.9M

Mole of solute =.?

Molarity = mole /Volume

1.9 = mole / 1.4

Cross multiply

Mole = 1.9 x 1.4

Mole = 2.66 moles

Therefore, the mole of the solute present in the solution is 2.66 moles.

16. Data obtained from the question include the following:

Mole of solute = 0.46 mole

Molarity = 0.22M

Volume of solvent (water) =.?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.22 = 0.46/Volume

Cross multiply

0.22 x Volume = 0.46

Divide both side 0.22

Volume = 0.46/0.22

Volume = 2.09L

Therefore, 2.09L of water is required.

A neutral atom has 8 electrons and 8 neutrons. Which of the following correctly represents the atom? A) carbon-16 B) oxygen-16 C
bija089 [108]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table. This means that oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons. In order to get the number of neutrons you take the atomic weight in this case 15.9999~16 and you subtract it by the number of protons (16-8).

A certain solid has a density of 8.0 g/cm3. if 4.0 g of this solid are poured into 4.00 ml of water, which drawing below most cl
Alexandra [31]
Answer is: <span>the volume of water after the solid is added</span> is 4.5 ml.
d(gold) = 8.0 g/cm³; density of gold.
m(gold) = 4 g; mass of gold.
V(gold) = m(gold) ÷ d(gold); volume of gold.
V(gold) = 4 g ÷ 8 g/cm³.
V(gold) = 0.5 cm³ = 0.5 ml.
V(water) = 4.00 ml = 4.00 cm³.
V(flask) = V(gold) + V(water).
V(flask) = 0.5 cm³ + 4 cm³.V = 4.5 cm³.

An unknown aqueous metal analysis yielded a detector response of 0.255. When 1.00 mL of a solution containing 100.0 ppm of the m
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

1.022ppm is the unknown concentration of the metal

Explanation:

Based on Lambert-Beer law, the increasing in signal of a detector is directly proportional to its concentration.

The unknown concentration (X) produces a signal of 0.255

99mL * X + 1mL * 100ppm / 100mL produces a signal of 0.502

0.99X + 1ppm produce 0.502, thus, X is:

0.255 * (0.99X + 1 / 0.502) =

X = 0.503X + 0.508

0.497X = 0.508

X =

1.022ppm is the unknown concentration of the metal
