Answer:

atomic number =15

Explanation:

If an atom of an element has a mass number of 31 And 16 neutrons in its nucleus, what is the atomic number of the element?

mass number = protons +neutrons =31

protons = 31 -16=15

atomic number IS the number of protons

so atomic number =15

How many electrons does calcium have in its outermost shell
galben [10]
Two electrons.


Yes, calcium is defined as a metal because of both its physical and chemical traits. They all have an outer shell with two electrons and are very reactive. Those elements in the second column have two electrons ready to make compounds. It shouldn't surprise you that calcium has a valence of 2.

Calculate the concentration of acetic acid and acetate ion in a 0.2 M acetate buffer at pH 5. The p K a of acetic acid is 4.76
Levart [38]

Answer:

[Acetic acid] = 0.07 M

[Acetate] = 0.13 M

Explanation:

pH of buffer = 5

pKa of acetic acid = 4.76

pH=p_{Ka} + log\frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

Now using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

5=4.76 + log\frac{[Acetate]}{[Acetic\;acid]}

log\frac{[Acetate]}{[Acetic\;acid]} = 0.24

\frac{[Acetate]}{[Acetic\;acid]} = 1.74  ....... (1)

It is given that,

[Acetate] + [Acetic acid] = 0.2 M     ....... (2)

Now solving both the above equations

[Acetate] = 1.74[Acetic acid]

Substitute the concentration of acetate ion in equation (2)

1.74[Acetic acid] + [Acetic acid] = 0.2 M

[Acetic acid] = 0.2/2.74 = 0.07 M

[Acetate] = 0.2 - 0.07 = 0.13 M

What is the new volume of a gas at standard pressure (760 mm Hg) if originally 2.30 L of the gas had a pressure of 725.0 mmHg?
maksim [4K]

Answer:

2.19L

Explanation:

Information from the question include:

V1 (initial volume) = 2.3L

P1 (initial pressure) = 725mmHg

P2 (final pressure) = 760mmHg

V2 (final volume) =?

With the Boyle's law equation P1V1 = P2V2, the final volume can easily be obtain as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

725 x 2.3 = 760 x V2

Divide both side by 760

V2 = (725 x 2.3)/760

V2 = 2.19L

Therefore, the new volume of the gas at standard pressure is 2.19L
