Please help!!! I appreciate it

scientists want to place a telescope on the moon to prove their view of distant planets. The telescope weighs 200 pounds on Eart

The weight itself technically will not change. The pull of gravity lessens, making it appear that it is lighter on the moon.

To gain an idea as to how many atoms are in a gram or so of copper, use the larger balance

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must understand the relationship between mass of a substance and the number of atoms.

Atoms are the smallest indivisible particles of any matter. A substance can be made up of several number of atoms in their space.

The mass of any substance is a function of the amount of atoms its contains.

The mass of a substance is related in chemistry to the amount of atoms its contains using the parameter called the number of moles.

A mole is the amount of substance that contains the Avogadro's number of particles. This number is 6.02 x 10²³ particles. The particles here can be protons, neutrons, electrons, atoms e.t.c.

Now,

Number of moles = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

Molar mass of copper = 63.6g/mole

Number of moles = $\frac{2}{63.6}$ = 0.03mole

Since 1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³atoms

0.03 mole of copper will contain 0.03 x 6.02 x 10²³atoms

= 1.89 x 10²² atoms

He needs to add 1.89 x 10²² atoms to make 2g of the sample.

What are the prefixes for molecular compounds?

fredd [130]

Answer:

In nomenclature of simple molecular compounds, the more electropositive atom is written first and the more electronegative element is written last with an -ide suffix.

The Greek prefixes are used to dictate the number of a given element present in a molecular compound.

Prefixes can be shortened when the ending vowel of the prefix “conflicts” with a starting vowel in the compound.

Common exceptions exist for naming molecular compounds, where trivial or common names are used instead of systematic names, such as ammonia (NH3) instead of nitrogen trihydride or water (H2O) instead of dihydrogen monooxide.

Terms

nomenclatureA set of rules used for forming the names or terms in a particular field of arts or sciences.

electronegativeTending to attract electrons within a chemical bond.

electropositiveTending to not attract electrons (repel) within a chemical bond.

Chemical Nomenclature

The primary function of chemical nomenclature is to ensure that a spoken or written chemical name leaves no ambiguity concerning to what chemical compound the name refers. Each chemical name should refer to a single substance. Today, scientists often refer to chemicals by their common names: for example, water is not often called dihydrogen oxide. However, it is important to be able to recognize and name all chemicals in a standardized way. The most widely accepted format for nomenclature has been established by IUPAC.

Molecular compounds are made when two or more elements share electrons in a covalent bond to connect the elements. Typically, non-metals tend to share electrons, make covalent bonds, and thus, form molecular compounds.

Rules for Naming Molecular Compounds:

Remove the ending of the second element, and add “ide” just like in ionic compounds.

When naming molecular compounds prefixes are used to dictate the number of a given element present in the compound. ” mono-” indicates one, “di-” indicates two, “tri-” is three, “tetra-” is four, “penta-” is five, and “hexa-” is six, “hepta-” is seven, “octo-” is eight, “nona-” is nine, and “deca” is ten.

If there is only one of the first element, you can drop the prefix. For example, CO is carbon monoxide, not monocarbon monoxide.

If there are two vowels in a row that sound the same once the prefix is added (they “conflict”), the extra vowel on the end of the prefix is removed. For example, one oxygen would be monooxide, but instead it’s monoxide. The extra o is dropped.

Generally, the more electropositive atom is written first, followed by the more electronegative atom with an appropriate suffix. For example, H2O (water) can be called dihydrogen monoxide (though it’s not usually). Organic molecules (molecules made of C and H along with other elements) do not follow this rule.

What volume of 0.05 mol/L HCl is required to react with 5.00g of manganese dioxide according to this equation?

adell [148]

217 ml of 0.05 M HCl will be required to react with 5 gm of MnO2 according to the equation given.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is given as:

4HCl(aq) + MnO2(s) → 2H2O(l) + MnCl2(aq) + Cl2(g)

This shows that 4 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of MnO2

the mass of Manganese oxide is given as 5 grams

molar mass of MnO2 = 86.93 grams/mole
