Answer:
Zirconium
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass number = 92
No of neutrons = 52
Mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons. We can find the number of protons.
92 = 52 + P
P = 40
Atomic number is equal to the number of protons. It means that the atomic no of the element is 40. The element is Zirconium whose atomic number is 40 and mass number is 92.
Answer:
0.03atm
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Total pressure = 780torr
Partial pressure of water vapor = 1.0atm
Unknown:
Partial pressure of radon = ?
Solution:
A sound knowledge of Dalton's law of partial pressure will help solve this problem.
The law states that "the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the constituent gases".
Mathematically;
P
= P
+ P
+ P
Since the total pressure is 780torr, convert this to atm;
760torr = 1 atm
780torr =
atm = 1.03atm
For this problem;
Total pressure = Partial pressure of radon + Partial pressure of water vapor
1.03 = Partial pressure of radon + 1.0
Partial pressure of radon = 1.03 - 1.00 = 0.03atm
