A compound has the empirical formula CH2O. If the compound’s molecular mass is 180 g/mol, determine the molecular formula of the

Umnica [9.8K]

The molecular formula will be a multiple of the empirical CH2O. One unit of CH2O has a mass of 12+2*1+16 = 30 g. This means that if our compound has a molecular mass of 180 g/mol, we can divide 180 / 30 = 6 units, and our compound has 6 units of CH2O. This means that its molecular formula is C6H12O6.

Explain why constructive and destructive forces are considered competing forces.

rodikova [14]

Used mainly in the context of Geography a Constructive force is involved in making new land while a Destructive force breaks the land. As they are carrying opposite functions to one another they are considered as competing forces.

When a mercury-202 nucleus is bombarded with a neutron, a proton is ejected. What element is formed?

Galina-37 [17]

That will make a gold-202 nucleus.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.

Step One: Bombard the $\displaystyle ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}$ with a neutron $^{1}_{0}n$ . The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of $^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}$ . However, the atomic number will stay the same.

New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
Atomic number is still 80.

$^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} + ^{1}_{0}n \to ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}$ .

Double check the equation:

Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

Step Two: The $^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}$ nucleus loses a proton $^{1}_{1}p$ . Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.

New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.

Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.

$^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} \to ^{202}_{\phantom{2}79}\text{Au} + ^{1}_{1}p$ .

Double check the equation:

Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

A gold-202 nucleus is formed.
