Fluorine

Explanation:

By looking at the periodic table, you will see that Fluorine has 9 protons. Since the number of electrons equal the number of protons, Fluorine has 9 electrons as well. Meanwhile, it's mass number of 19, minus 10 neutrons, gives you 9 protons or electrons. Hence, the atom would be Fluorine.

Calling all chemists...please help me!  Ive attached a screen shot of the problem
Olin [163]
This is an acid-base reaction where HF is the acid and H2O is the base (it's amphoteric and can be an acid or a base). The products would then H3O+ (the conjugate acid) and F- (the conjugate base). Now, we can simply construct a reaction using the found products and reactants. This acid-base reaction would be HF + H2O <--> H3O+ + F-.

Hope this helps!

Calculate the volume in liters required to prepare a 5.00 m solution of nacl using 15.4 g of nacl
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
<span>52.7 ml First, determine how many moles of NaCl you have Atomic weight sodium = 22.989769 Atomic weight chlorine = 35.453 Molar mass NaCl = 22.989769 + 35.453 = 58.442769 g/mol Moles NaCl = 15.4 g / 58.442769 g/mol = 0.263505653 mol Now molarity is defined as moles/liter, so let's set up an equation for the number of liters we can make. molarity = moles/liter Substitute the known values 5.00 = 0.263505653/liter And solve for liters 5.00 = 0.263505653/liter 5.00* liter = 0.263505653 liter = 0.263505653/5.00 liter = 0.052701131 So you can make 0.0527 liters of the solution. Or 52.7 ml</span>

When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, the directions say to put the 255 grams of filled pasta into 3 quarts of boiling water. why
kondaur [170]
<span>When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, you should use three quarts of water instead of one so that the raviolis have room to move around in the boiling water and so that while they are moving around, they will not stick to each other or the pan.</span>

In the same science fair,Tina ask the question "does caffeine increase the heart rate of an earthworm?" In test 1,she measures t
Alborosie
<span>The independent variable is the one that does not change depending on other variables - so here it would be the presence or the absence of caffeine - this is dependent on Tina's actions, but not on other variables in the experiment. The dependent variable is the heart rate - it is assumed to depend on the presence or absence of caffeine. A hypothesis could be that "Caffeine causes an increase of heart rate in earthworms" - and this hypothesis is what the experiment is testing.</span>

How do dominant genes and recessive genes affect taste?
kherson [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

Because it is genetic, taste is thus inherited based on the allele combination, or “to taste, or not to taste”. The ability is highlighted here; the ability to taste PTC shows a dominant pattern of inheritance. A single copy of a tasting allele (T) conveys the ability to taste PTC.
