differentiate between the characteristics, composition, and location of comets, asteroids, and meteoroids.

Answer:

Asteroids

At first glance, asteroids may seem like run-of-the-mill space rocks, but these ancient solar system remnants come in all shapes, sizes and flavors

Comets

For millennia, the sight of a comet elicited fear and awe. Ancient astronomers believed comets foretold the death of princes and the outcomes of wars. Modern astronomers know comets are the ice-clad leftovers from the material that formed our solar system billions of years ago.

Meteoroids

Meteoroids are the true space rocks of the solar system. No larger than a meter in size (3.3 feet) and sometimes the size of a grain of dust, they are too small to be considered asteroids or comets, but many are the broken pieces of either. Some meteoroids originate from the ejected debris caused by impacts on planets or moons.

A sample that weighs 103.75 g is a mixture of 30% helium atoms and 70% krypton atoms. How many particles are present in the samp
aalyn [17]
1) we calculate the molar mass of He (helium) and Kr (Krypton).
atomic mass (He)=4 u
atomic mas (Kr)=83.8 u

Therefore the molar mass will be:
molar mass(He)=4 g/mol
molar mass(Kr)=83.8 g/mol.

1) We can find  the next equation:
mass=molar mass  x number of moles.

x=number of moles of helium
y=number of moles of helium. 

(4 g/mol) x  +(83.8 g/mol)y=103.75 g
Therefore, we have the next equation:

(1)

4x+83.8y=103.75


2) We can find other equation:

We have 30% helium atoms and 70% Kryptum atoms, therefore we have 30% Helium moles and 70% of Krypton moles.

1 mol  is always 6.022 * 10²³ atoms or molecules, (in this case atoms).

Then:
x=number of moles of helium
y=number of moles of helium.
(x+y)=number of moles of our sample.

x=30% of (x+y)

Therefore, we have this other equation:
(2)

x=0.3(x+y)


With the equations(1) and (2), we have the next system of equations:

4x+83.8y=103.75

x=0.3(x+y)  ⇒ x=0.3x+0.3y  ⇒    x-0.3x=0.3y  ⇒ 0.7 x=0.3y ⇒ x=0.3y/0.7
⇒x=3y/7

We solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x=3y/7

4(3y/7)+83.8y=103.75
lower common multiple)7
12y+586.6y=726.25
598.6y=726.25
y=1.21

x=3y/7=3(1.21)/7=0.52

We have 0.52 moles of  helium and 1.21 moles of Krypton.

1 mol=6.022 * 10²³ atoms

Total number of particles=(6.022 *10²³ atoms /1 mol) (number of moles of He+ number of moles of Kr).

Total number of particles=6.022 * 10²³ (0.52+1.21)=6.022 * 10²³ (1.73)=
=1.044 * 10²⁴ atoms.

Answer: The sample have 1.044 * 10²⁴ atoms.

You react 2.33 g of iron (III) chloride with 50.0 mL of 0.500 M solution of sodium phosphate to
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

2.33g of iron (iii) chloride

50.0 mL of 5.00 M of sodium phosphate

FeCl3 + Na3PO4 > Fe(PO4) + 3NaCl

mol = conc × vol = 0.5 × 50/1000 = 0.025 mol Na3PO4

from the equation:

1 mol of Na3PO4 reacts with 1 mol FeCl3 = 3 mol of NaCl

0.025 mol = x

x = 0.0025 × 3 = 0.075 mol NaCl

mass = 0.075 g × 59 g/mol = 4.425 g NaCl

i guessed all of this so i dont know i it is correct
