What is this atom structure?

How many electrons are there in second principal energy level(n=2) of a phosphorus atom?

salantis [7]

Answer:

8 electrons

Explanation:

Phosphorous is the element of group 15 and third period. The atomic number of chlorine is 15 and the symbol of the element is P.

The electronic configuration of the element phosphorus is:-

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3$

Thus, from the electronic configuration shown above,

In n = 2, the total number of electrons are 8 which are present in $2s^22p^6$

An outdoor grill has a propane (C3H8) tank that holds 4.8 L of gas at a pressure of 5.5 atm. If all of the gas is transferred in

shtirl [24]

Answer: 0.176 atm

Explanation: Solution attached:

Use Boyle's Law to find the new pressure of the gas.

P1V1 = P2V2

Derive for P2

P2 = P1V1 / V2

= 5.5 atm ( 4.8 L ) / 150 L

= 0.176 atm

Take your time please.

Andreyy89

Answer:

1.) Eyewash station --> D

2.) Absorbent material --> G

3.) Fire extinguisher --> F

4.) Safety Shower --> E

5.) Biohazard container --> J

6.) Broken glass container --> I

7.) Safety goggles --> C

8.) Lab apron --> H

9.) asbestos gloves --> A

10.) Latex gloves --> B

Explanation:

In an equipped laboratory, alot of safety equipments are made available and kept in area that it could be easily accessed in the laboratory. Safety or protective equipments are those materials that helps protect a laboratory personnel while at work on the lab.

These equipments include:

--> Eyewash station: This is an equipment used in the laboratory during emergency to rinse chemical from the eye. Therefore option D is correct.

--> Absorbent material: They are used to contain small spills in the laboratory. Therefore option G is correct.

--> Fire extinguisher: This equipment is used to put out small fires. Therefore F is correct.

--> Safety Shower: This is used to rinse away chemical from clothes and on skin during emergency. Therefore option E is correct.

--> Biohazard container: This container is used to safely dispose bacteria culture, blood and other living tissues. Therefore option J is correct.

--> Broken glass container: This is used to dispose cracked, chipped or broken bottle in the laboratory. Therefore option I is correct.

--> Safety goggles: This helps to protect the eye from chemical and broken glasses. Therefore option C is correct.

--> Lab apron: This is worn by the laboratory personnel to help protect the skin from chemical and biohazards. Therefore option H is correct.

--> Asbestos gloves: these are heat resistant gloves used to protect the hands from heat. Therefore option A is correct.

--> Latex gloves: these are equally worn by the laboratory personnel to protect the hands from chemicals and biohazards

The compound known as butylated hydroxytoluene, abbreviated as BHT, contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. A 2.001 g sample of B

Alborosie

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{15}H_{24}O_1$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of compound having carbon, hydrogen, iron and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=5.995g$

Mass of $H_2O=1.963g$

Mass of sample = 2.001 g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 5.995 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 5.995=1.635g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 1.963 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 1.963=0.218g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (2.001) - (1.635 + 0.218) = 0.148 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{1.635g}{12g/mole}=0.136moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.218g}{1g/mole}=0.218moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.148g}{16g/mole}=0.0092moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.0092 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.136}{0.0092}=14.78\approx 15$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.218}{0.0092}=23.69\approx 24$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.0092}{0.0092}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 15 : 24 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{15}H_{24}O_1$
