Answer:

You can add as many neutrons you would like to any atom as long if it's stable and whatnot. If you do add a neutron to an atom, such as Nitrogen, it still stays as Nitrogen, but its atomic mass would change.

This is referred to as an "Isotope"

Atoms of the same element, but different masses.

I hope this helps!

What is the number of copper atom in one naira coin which weight is 7.3g a sum of the material is 86%

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

5.9x10²² atoms of Cu are in one naira coin

Explanation:

To solve this question we need to find the mass of Copper. Then, using its molar mass (Cu = 63.546g/mol) we must find the moles of Cu and its atoms using Avogadro's number:

7.3g * 86% = 6.278g is the mass of Cu.

<em>Moles Cu:</em>

6.278g * (1mol / 63.546g) = 0.099moles Cu

<em>Atoms Cu:</em>

0.099moles Cu * (6.022x10²³atoms / 1mol) =

<h3>5.9x10²² atoms of Cu are in one naira coin</h3>

What mass of magnesium would combine with exactly 16.0 grams of oxygen

TEA [102]

1.65g MgO = 1g Mg
1.65 - 1 = 0.65 g of O in MgO

solve it using proportion:
1g Mg / 0.65g O = x (g) Mg / 16g O
or 1 / 0.65 = x / 16

24.6 g is the answer.

if 1 gram of oxygen requires 1.65 grams of Mg
then 16 grams of oxygen will require 16 ( 1.65) or 26.4 grams.

A large balloon is initially filled to a volume of 25.0 L at 353 K and a pressure of 2575 mm Hg. What volume of gas will the bal

bija089 [108]

Answer:

45.0 L is the volume of gas will the balloon contain at 1.35 atm and 253 K.

Explanation:

Using Ideal gas equation for same mole of gas as

$\frac {{P_1}\times {V_1}}{T_1}=\frac {{P_2}\times {V_2}}{T_2}$

Given ,

V₁ = 25.0 L

V₂ = ?

P₁ = 2575 mm Hg

Also, P (atm) = P (mm Hg) / 760

P₁ = 2575 / 760 atm = 3.39 atm

P₂ = 1.35 atm

T₁ = 353 K

T₂ = 253 K

Using above equation as:

$\frac {{P_1}\times {V_1}}{T_1}=\frac {{P_2}\times {V_2}}{T_2}$

$\frac{{3.39}\times {25.0}}{353}=\frac{{1.35}\times {V_2}}{253}$

$\frac{1.35V_2}{253}=\frac{3.39\times \:25}{353}$

Solving for V₂ , we get:

45.0 L is the volume of gas will the balloon contain at 1.35 atm and 253 K.
