<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic mass of an atom is defined as the sum of number of neutrons and number of protons that are present in an atom. It is represented as 'A'.

Atomic number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

We are given:

Number of protons = 6

Number of neutrons = 6

Number of electrons = 6

Atomic mass = 6 + 6 = 12

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

Add a constant temperature when the volume of the gas is decreased what happens to its pressure
Margaret [11]

Answer:

<h2>Pressure will increase</h2>

Explanation:

At a constant temperature, the pressure of gas will increase proportional to the decrease in volume of the gas.

P1V1= P2V2

Decrease in volume result in increase in pressure as the equation has to hold true.

Measurements show that unknown compound X has the following composition: element mass % carbon 41.0% hydrogen 4.58% oxygen 54.6%
anastassius [24]

Answer:

CHO

Explanation:

Carbon = 41%,  Hydrogen = 4.58%, oxygen = 54.6%

Step 1:

Divide through by their respective relative atomic masses

41/ 12,         4.58/1,         54.6/16

3.41              4.58            3.41

Step 2:

Divide by the lowest ratio:

3.41/3.41,      4.58/3.41,     3.41/3.41

1,                    1,                  1

Hence the empirical formula is CHO

How many liters of hydrogen gas will be produced at STP from the reaction of 7.179 x 1023 atoms of magnesium with 54.21 g of pho
wlad13 [49]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

18.58 liters of hydrogen gas

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • The equation;

3Mg + 2H₃(PO₄) → Mg₃(PO₄)₂ + 3H₂

  • Atoms of Magnesium = 7.179 x 10^23 atoms
  • Mass of phosphoric acid as 54.21 g

We are required to determine the volume of hydrogen gas produced;

Step 1; moles of Magnesium

1 mole of an element contains 6.02 × 10^23 atoms

therefore;

Moles of Mg = (7.179 x 10^23 ) ÷ (6.02 × 10^23)

                   = 1.193 moles

Step 2: Moles of phosphoric acid

moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Molar mass of phosphoric acid = 97.994 g/mol

Therefore;

Moles of Phosphoric acid = 54.21 g ÷ 97.994 g/mol

                                           = 0.553 moles

Step 3: Determine the rate limiting reagent

From the mole ratio of Mg to Phosphoric acid (3 : 2);

1.193 moles of magnesium requires 0.795 moles of phosphoric acid while,

0.0553 moles of phosphoric acid requires 0.8295 moles of Mg

Therefore, phosphoric acid is the rate limiting reagent

step 4: Determine the moles of hydrogen produced

From the equation, w moles of phosphoric acid reacts to produce 3 moles of hydrogen;

Therefore; moles of Hydrogen = moles of phosphoric acid × 3/2

                                                   = 0.553 moles × 3/2

                                                   = 0.8295 moles

Step 5: Volume of hydrogen gas

1 mole of a gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters at STP

Therefore;

Volume of Hydrogen = 0.8295 moles × 22.4 L/mol

                                  = 18.58 Liters

Therefore; 18.58 liters of hydrogen gas  will be produced
