The total charge on an atom comes from protons and electrons.

The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged. A neutral atom would have an equal number of protons and electrons.

An atom with more protons than electrons will be positively charged while those with more electrons than protons will be negatively charged.

A steel container with a movable piston contains 2.00 g of helium which was held at a constant temperature of 25 °C. Additional

shtirl [24]

Answer: D) 1.00 g

Explanation:

According to the Avogadro's law, the volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas at same pressure and temperature. That means,

$V\propto n$

or,

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}$

where,

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 2.00 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = 3.00 L

$n_1$ = initial moles of gas = $\frac{\text {Given mass of helium}}{\text {molar mass of helium}}=\frac{2.00g}{4g/mol}=0.500mol$

$n_2$ = final moles of gas = ?

Now we put all the given values in this formula, we get

$\frac{2.00L}{3.00L}=\frac{0.500mol}{n_2}$

$n_2=0.75mole$

Mass of helium = $moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=0.75\times 4=3.00g$

Thus mass of helium added = (3.00-2.00) g = 1.00 g

What is the molality of a solution that has 30mg of K3PO4 dissolved in 40mL of water? (The density of water is 1.00 g/mL)

sweet [91]

Answer:

m = 0.0035 m.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the formula for the computation of the molality is:

$m=\frac{n_{solute}}{m_{solvent}}$

We can first compute the moles of solute, K3PO4 by using its molar mass:

$n=30mgK_3PO_4*\frac{1gK_3PO_4}{1000gK_3PO_4}*\frac{1molK_3PO_4}{212.27gK_3PO_4} =1.41x10^{-4}mol$

Next, since the volume of water is 40.0 mL and its density is 1.00 g/mL we infer we have the same grams (40.0 g). Thus, we obtain the following molality by making sure we use the mass of water in kilograms (0.04000kg):

$m=\frac{1.41x10^{-4}mol}{0.0400kg}\\\\m=0.0035m$

In molal units (m=mol/kg).

Best regards!

Sometimes, based on the electron configurations of the elements involved, a possible chemical formula for a compound can be pred

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

D)the first ionization energy (IE1) of B is most probably lower than the first ionization energy (IE1) of A

Explanation:

As mentioned the possible chemical formula for a compound can be predicted from electron configurations of the elements.

The first element 'A' has electronic configuration as "[core]ns²

It means it has two valence electrons and it can give those valence electrons to attain noble gas or full filled stability.

So the element is most likely to form a dipositive ion.

Now for element B the configuration is :[Core]ns²np⁵

thus it has seven valence electrons and it will most likely to accept an electron to gain full filled stability. So B will form a mono negative ion.

The possible formula will be AB₂ [Like MgCl₂]

So the false statements are:

D)the first ionization energy (IE1) of B is most probably lower than the first ionization energy (IE1) of A : the first ionization energy of A will be lower than B as B cannot give an electron easily.

The other statements are correct:

A) element A serves as the reducing agent in the reaction to form AxBy : As A will lose electrons so it will acts as reducing agent and itself gets oxidized

B) yes it is whole number as calculated above.

C) x + y = 1+2 = 3

E) Already calculated that B has oxidation state of -1.
