An atom has 18 protons, 18 electrons, and 20 neutrons. This atom has _____.
Lera25 [3.4K]

an atom that has 18 protons, 18 neutrons and 20 neutrons. This atom has mass number of 38

mass number is calculated as number of protons + number on neutrons

therefore the mass number of the atom = 18+20= 38

Since the atom has a electronic configuration of 2.8.8,the atom cannot be negatively or positively charged because it is stable.

The atomic number of the atom is 18 since atomic number is equal to number of protons

1. A gas expands and does p-v work on the surroundings equal to
azamat

The change in energy of the system : -63 J

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

279 J work

216 J heat

Required

The change in energy

Solution

Laws of thermodynamics 1

ΔU=Q+W

Rules :

  • receives heat, Q +  
  • releases heat, Q -  
  • work is done by a system, W -  
  • work is done on a system, W +  

a gas work on the surrounding : W =-279 J

a gas absorb heat from surrounding : Q = +216 J

Internal energy :

= -279+216

= -63 J

During an experiment, the percent yield of calcium chloride from a reaction was 82.38%. Theoretically, the expected amount shoul
gregori [183]

Answer:

Actual yield = 86.5g

Explanation:

Percent yield = 82.38%

Theoretical yield = 105g

Actual yield = x

Equation of reaction,

CaCO₃ + HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O

Percentage yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100

82.38% = actual yield / theoretical yield

82.38 / 100 = x / 105

Cross multiply and make x the subject of formula

X = (105 * 82.38) / 100

X = 86.499g

X = 86.5g

Actual yield of CaCl₂ is 86.5g
