Answer:

The number of protons also determines the identity of the element. ... Since the atom is electrically neutral, the number of electrons must equal the number of protons.

If you react 2.00 g of hydrogen completely using 15.87 g of oxygen to produce water, how much water (in grams) will you have?

leonid [27]

Answer:

The amount (mass) of water we will have is 17.869 grams

Explanation:

The molar mass of hydrogen gas H₂ = 2.016 grams/mole

The molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.999 g/mol

Therefore, 2.00 g of hydrogen will give;

2.00/2.016 = 0.9921 moles of H₂ gas and

15.87 g of O₂ will give;

15.87/31.999 = 0.49595 moles

The reaction is as follows;

2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) → 2H₂O (l)

Two moles of H₂ react with one mole of O₂ to produce two moles of H₂O

Therefore 0.9921 moles of H₂ will react with 0.9921/2 or 0.49595 moles of O₂ to produce 0.9921 moles of H₂O

From the above we note that all the H₂ and O₂ are completely consumed to form 0.9921 moles of H₂O

Molar mass of H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol

Number of moles = Mass/(Molar mass)

∴ Mass of H₂O = (Molar mass) × (Number of moles)

= 18.01528 g/mol × 0.9921 moles = 17.869 grams

Therefore the amount (mass) of water we will have = 17.869 grams.

An energy of 6.8 x 10^-19 J/atom is required to cause an aluminum atom on a metal surface to lose an electron.

Nana76 [90]

Wavelength of the light is 2.9 × 10⁻⁷ m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Planck - Einstein equation shows the relationship between the energy of a photon and its frequency, and they are directly proportional to each other and it is given by the equation as E = hν,

where E is the energy of the photon

h is the Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J s

ν is the frequency

From the above equation, we can find the frequency by rearranging the equation as,

ν = $$ \frac{E}{h}$ = $$ \frac{6.8 \times 10^{-19}}{6.626\times10^{-34}} = 1.03\times10^{15} s^{-1}$

Now the frequency and the wavelength are in inverse relationship with each other.

ν × λ = c

It can be rearranged to get λ as,

λ = c / ν

= $$\frac{3\times 10^{8} ms^{-1}}{1.03\times10^{15}s^{-1}} = 2.9\times 10^{-7} m$

So wavelength is 2.9 × 10⁻⁷ m.

HELP PLSSSS

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Groups like the Halogens, which include Chlorine and Flourine, share similar properties both behaviorally and structurally. The Periodic Table is essentially a bunch of patterns and trends and the groups (like the one with Sodium and Potassium) were grouped together because of these similarities.
