Explain what atom is used as a reference when determining how many atoms are in a mole

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: Ok so the MOLE (mol) is a unit of measurement representing the amount of a substance that contains the same number of atoms as there are molecules in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12 (i.e., 6022X1023).

Explanation: And that's how it goes, I hope you understood it well!

You believe you have cracked a secret code that uses elemental symbols to spell words. The code uses numbers to designate the el

Stells [14]

Explanation:

Atomic numbers for neutral atoms are the same as the number of electrons. The number of electrons are used in writing the subshell notation where we can see the highest princpal quantum number(n).

In order to solve this problem, a good knowledge of the periodic table and shell notation is required.

For example;

Given a number 5;

We know the number is made of both the atomic number of the element and the highest quantum number.

It is easier for us to know the highest quantum number from the shell notation:

shell notation 1s²2s²2p¹

highest principal quantum number is 2

We are left with atomic number 5-2, which is 3

The element is therefore Li.

What is one chemical reaction that begins with petroleum as a starting material

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Thermal decomposition or cracking

Explanation:

Petroleum is a mixture of hydrocarbons which are usually formed naturally. Petroleum undergo a host of chemical reactions. One of such is thermal decomposition or cracking.

Cracking is used in the petroleum industry to covert heavy fractions to more useful lighter ones.

When petroleum is subjected to high temperature and pressure, and in the presence of catalyst, the long chain type of petroleum will decompose into more useful smaller and lighter molecules.

Example is given below:

C₁₅H₃₂ → C₈H₁₈ + C₃H₆ + 2C₂H₄

polet [3.4K]

It's B. 6.25

first divide 50/2

then divide 25/2

after that divide 12.5/2

Then you get 6.25

Hope it helps!
