Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1.57 \ g \ Pt}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the mass of 4.84 × 10²¹ platinum (Pt) atoms.

<h3>1. Atoms to Moles </h3>

First, we convert atoms to moles using Avogadro's Number of 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are platinum atoms. There are <u>6.022 × 10²³ platinum atoms in 1 mole of platinum. </u>

We will convert using dimensional analysis, so we set up a ratio using the underlined information.

$\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Pt }{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

We are converting 4.84 × 10²¹ platinum atoms to moles, so we multiply the ratio by this value.

$4.84 \times 10^{21} \ atoms \ Pt *\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Pt }{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

Flip the ratio so the units of atoms of platinum cancel.

$4.84 \times 10^{21} \ atoms \ Pt *\frac{ 1 \ mol \ Pt} {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Pt }$

$4.84 \times 10^{21} *\frac{ 1 \ mol \ Pt} {6.022 \times 10^{23} }$

$\frac{4.84 \times 10^{21} } {6.022 \times 10^{23} } \ mol \ Pt$

$0.008037196945 \ mol \ Pt$

<h3>2. Moles to Grams </h3>

Next, we convert moles to grams using the molar mass. This is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is found on the Periodic Table because it is equal to the atomic mass, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units.

Look up the molar mass of platinum.

Pt: 195.08 g/mol

Set up another ratio using the molar mass.

$\frac {195.08 \ g \ Pt}{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

We multiply the ratio by the number of moles we calculated.

$0.008037196945 \ mol \ Pt * \frac{195.08 \ g \ Pt}{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

The units of moles of platinum cancel.

$0.008037196945 * \frac{195.08 \ g \ Pt}{ 1 }$

$0.008037196945 * {195.08 \ g \ Pt}$

$1.56789638 \ g \ Pt$

<h3>3. Round </h3>

The original value of atoms has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the hundredth place. The 7 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7.

$1.57 \ g \ Pt$

4.84 × 10²¹ platinum atoms have a mass of <u>1.57 grams.</u>

How/why is maintaining healthy soil a social justice issue for our area and community

podryga [215]

Answer:

Social justice aims to give individuals and groups fair treatment and an impartial share of social, environmental and economic benefits. The concept promotes the fair distribution of advantages and disadvantages within a society, regardless of background and status.

Environmental justice deals explicitly with the distribution of environmental benefits and the burdens people experience, at home, at work, or where they learn, play and spend leisure time. Environmental benefits include attractive and extensive greenspace, clean air and water, and investment in pollution abatement and landscape improvements. Environmental burdens include risks and hazards from industrial, transport-generated and municipal pollution.

How many liters of hydrogen gas at stp are produced from the reaction of 50.0g of magnesium and 75g of hydrochloric acid

ss7ja [257]

Here's how to do it:

<span>Balanced equation first: </span>
<span>Mg + HCl = H2 + MgCl2 unbalanced </span>
<span>Mg + 2 HCl = H2 = MgCl balanced </span>
<span>Therefore 1 mole Mg reacts with 2 moles Hcl. </span>
<span>50g Mg = ? moles (a bit over 2; you work it out) </span>
<span>75 g HCl = ? moles (also a bit over 2; you work it out) </span>
<span>BUT, you need twice the moles HCl; therefore it is the Mg that is in excess. (you can now work out how many moles are in excess, and therefore how much mg is left over). </span>

<span>So, 2 moles HCl produce 1 mole H2(g) </span>
<span>therefore, the amount of H2 produced is half the number of moles of HCl </span>
<span>At STP, there are X litres per mole of gas (look it up - about 22 from memory) </span>
<span>Therefore, knowing the moles of H2, you can calculate the volume</span>

A mixture consists of saw dust, salt, and pebbles. Which of the following instruments or materials would not be useful in separa

andriy [413]

The screen will not be useful in separating the mixture of saw dust, salt and pebbles.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

The separation of individual elements from the mixture can be done easily if the size of the elements in the mixture is varying significantly. Just like in the present case, the size of sawdust and salt is very small compared to that of pebbles.

So by using sieves having pores of smaller sizes, pebbles can be separated from the mixture as pebbles will not pass through the minute pores. Even depending upon the size of pores, the saw dust can also be separated using it.

Similarly, we can use water also to separate this mixture as sawdust have least density it will float in water surface and pebbles being the highest density will sink and settle in the bottom of the container.

Remaining salt will get dissolved in water which can be obtained by heating the water in order to precipitate the salt. Even filter paper with different mess size will also help in separating this mixture. But as this mixture is not permeable through screen, the screen cannot be used to separate this mixture.

Answer:

NH3 —> base

We will see ammonia attach itself to silver and not the other way around, silver therefore accepts electrons. So, silver is a Lewis acid and ammonia is a Lewis base, so this reaction is complex as ammonia reacts with the silver cation .

Any group that contains an empty orbital in its valence shell can be considered a Lewis acid, but the bases do not differ in the Brønsted system from those in the Lewis system. Thus, acids are divided into types, including:

Simple Cations

Theoretically, they can be considered as acids and therefore we can also expect their acidic strength to increase for the following reasons:

1. By increasing the positive charge on the cation.

2. Increasing the charge of the nucleus from one atom to another in any period in the periodic table.

3. By decreasing the radius of the cation.

4. Decrease in the number of electron shells in the cation.

Therefore, the acidity of cations of any chain of transition elements increases with increasing atomic number when their positive charge is equal. There are some examples that show the reaction of cations as Lewis acids:

A) the reaction of the silver ion with ammonia

b) aluminum ion hydration

c) Adding alcohol to the lithium ion

D) formation of a ferric cyanide ion
