Based on the information contained in the figure above, do you think that neon has any isotopes? Explain your answer.

1 answer:

5 0

Based on the figure, Neon has an atomic number of 10 and a Mass number of 20.18. We must take note that the atomic number is equal to the number of protons, while the Mass number is equal to the number of protons PLUS neutrons, so:

number of protons = 10

protons + neutrons = 20.18

hence,

10 + neutrons = 20.18

number of neutrons = 10.18

A neutron can be a considered as a whole single atom so it cannot have a decimal. The only way that the number of neutrons is fractions is only when it is a combination of isotopes. So the answer is:

<span>Yes, Neon has isotopes</span>

The flask contains 10.0 mL of HCl and a few drops of phenolphthalein indicator. The buret contains 0.160 M NaOH. It requires 18.

Answer:

Approximately $0.291\; \rm M$ (rounded to two significant figures.)

Explanation:

The unit of concentration $\rm M$ is the same as $\rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ (moles per liter.) On the other hand, the volume of both the $\rm NaOH$ solution and the original $\rm HCl$ solution here are in milliliters. Convert these two volumes to liters:

$V(\mathrm{NaOH}) = 18.2\; \rm mL = 18.2 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm L = 0.0182\; \rm L$ .
$V(\text{$\mathrm{HCl}$, original}) = 10.0\; \rm mL = 10.0\times 10^{-3}\; \rm L = 0.0100\; \rm L$ .

Calculate the number of moles of $\rm NaOH$ in that $0.0182\; \rm L$ of $0.160\; \rm M$ solution:

$\begin{aligned} n(\mathrm{NaOH}) &= c(\mathrm{NaOH})\cdot V(\mathrm{NaOH})\\ &= 0.160\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} \times 0.0182\; \rm L \approx 0.00291\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

$\rm HCl$ reacts with $\rm NaOH$ at a one-to-one ratio:

$\rm HCl\; (aq) + NaOH\; (aq) \to NaCl\; (aq) + H_2O\; (l)$ .

Coefficient ratio:

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{HCl})}{n(\mathrm{NaOH})} = 1$ .

In other words, one mole of $\rm NaOH$ would neutralize exactly one mole of $\rm HCl$ . In this titration, $0.291\; \rm mol$ of $\rm NaOH\!$ was required. Therefore, the same amount of $\rm HC$ should be present in the original solution:

$\begin{aligned}&n(\text{$\mathrm{HCl}$, original})\\ &= n(\mathrm{NaOH})\cdot \frac{n(\mathrm{HCl})}{n(\mathrm{NaOH})} \\ &\approx 0.00291\; \rm mol \times 1 = 0.00291\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the concentration of the original $\rm HCl$ solution:

$\displaystyle c(\text{$\mathrm{HCl}$, original}) = \frac{n(\text{$\mathrm{HCl}$, original})}{V(\text{$\mathrm{HCl}$, original})} \approx \frac{0.00291\; \rm mol}{0.0100\; \rm L} \approx 0.291\; \rm M$ .

The number of chlorine atoms present on the product side of the reaction is 6

<h3>What is a chemical equation? </h3>

Chemical equations are representations of chemical reactions using symbols and formula of the reactants and products.

The balancing of chemical equations follows the law of conservation of matter which states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but can be transferred from one form to another.

<h3>How to determine the number of atoms of Cl</h3>

How many water molecules (H2O) can be produced from 6 molecules of hydrogen gas (white) reacting with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

Vladimir79 [104]

I think you can only have 3 water molecules because you need 2 hydrogen molecules in every water molecule and you have 6 hydrogen molecules so 6/2=3 and the reactant that is limited would be hydrogen since it limits the amount of water molecules you can have
