Answer:

23

This particular isotope of potassium-42 contains 42 nucleons (i.e., protons and neutrons, combined;) Like other isotopes of potassium 19 out of these nucleons are protons; the rest 42−19=23 are therefore neutrons.

What are two things that you observed when you heated the mixture of tin and nitric acid over the Bunsen burner in the virtual l
Rus_ich [418]
1. The reaction for this would be:

Sn + 4 HNO₃ →  SnO₂ + 4 NO₂ + 2 H₂O

The first observation would be bubbling of the solution and brown acrid smoke is produced due to the presence of NO₂ gas. Another observation would be the presence of a white solid which is SnO₂.

2. Heating was required to get rid of the H₂O. When all moisture is gone, you weigh the sample. Afterwhich, you further heat it to get ride of the oxygen. By doing this, you would know the individual mass of each element. Then, you can solve for the empirical formula of the oxide of tin.

Imagine an alternate universe where the value of the Planck constant is 6.6207 x 10^-36 J*s.
hoa [83]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Louis de Broglie, particles could exhibit wavelike properties and have an associated wavelength.

Now for a turtle with a mass of 450. g, 29. cm long, moving at 2.7 cm/s, recall that we can only describe a by quantum mechanics when the body is very small and its associated wavelength is large.

This object has a large mass, hence it is discussed by classical rather than quantum mechanics

Which of the following was not a contribution by Niels Bohr?Electrons are in orbits. There is a relationship between the outer s
lara31 [8.8K]
Neil Bohr contributed towards science in many ways, but his contributions did not include the charge of an electron. Neil Bohr recognized a relationship between the chemical properties of a substance and the number of valence shell electrons. Moreover, he introduced the atomic model in 1913 and provided the liquid-drop model to explain nuclear fusion.

Why is a phenol more acidic than a regular alcohol? Group of answer choices
Aleks [24]

Answer:

a.Phenols have the ability to spread out the negative charge that forms.

Explanation:

This happens because of  the aromatic ring the phenols have. When loosing the proton, the anion formed have different resonance isomers due to the double bonds in the aromatic ring. This resonance makes the anion more stable and prevents the reaction going backwards.

On the other hand, regular alcohol doesn't have resonace and the reaction of loosing the proton goes leftward and righward: is in equilibrium.

That equilibrium decreases the acidity of the alcohol.
