Answer:

The element argon is in column 8A and is a noble gas. Nobles gases are completely stable because their outershell is filled with all eight electrons. Argon has eight valence electrons.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Okay
Mr (H2O)= 18g
therefore moles of H2O
is 720.8/18= 40.04mol
the ratio of H2 to O2 to H2O is
2 : 1 : 2
so moles of H2 is same as H2O here
H2= 40.04moles

moles of O2 is half
so 40.04 x 0.5
20.02moles

grams of O2 is
its moles into Mr of O2
that's 20.02 x 32 = 640.64g

How many moles of hydrogen are in the sample? Round your answer to 4 significant digits.

finlep [7]

Answer:

1.56 mol H₂

Explanation:

Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂

There are 4 Si moles per Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ mol. With that in mind we can calculate how many Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ moles are there in the sample, using the given number of silicon moles:

3.120 mol Si * $\frac{1molMg_3(Si_2O_5)_2(OH)_2}{4molSi}$ = 0.78 mol Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂

Then we can convert Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ moles into hydrogen moles, keeping in mind that there are 2 hydrogen moles per Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ mol:

0.78 mol Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ * 2 = 1.56 mol H₂

How to find the number of neutrons in an isotope?

Alexeev081 [22]

Chemical properties of elements are primarily determined by the electrons but not by neutrons. Therefore, the isotopes of the same element have similar chemical behavior. (a) The atomic number is 17, so there are 17 protons and 17 electrons. The mass number is 35, so there are 18 (=35-17) neutrons. Hope this helps. :)

Write the mechanism of the reaction of methyl benzoate to form methyl 2-nitrobenzoate.

Galina-37 [17]

The question is partially incorrect, because nitration of methyl benzoate results in generation of methyl 3-nitrobenzoate, and not methyl 2-benzoate.

This a because of the present of ester group, which deactivated benzene ring at ortho and para position. Due to this, the electrophile (NO2+) attackes on meta position.

The detailed mechanism is attached below.
