In a particular mass of kau(cn)2, there are 6.66 × 1020 atoms of gold. What is the total number of atoms in this sample?
Vinvika [58]

Total number of atoms in the sample is the sum of number of atoms of all the elements present in the sample.

Number of gold, Au atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = 6.66\times 10^{20} atoms     (given)

From the formula of compound that is KAu(CN)_2 it is clear that the number of potassium and gold are same whereas those of carbon and nitrogen are 2 times of them.

So, the number of atoms of each element is:

Number of potassium, K atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = 6.66\times 10^{20} atoms    

Number of carbon, C atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = 2\times6.66\times 10^{20} atoms = 13.32\times 10^{20}

Number of nitrogen, N atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = 2\times6.66\times 10^{20} atoms = 13.32\times 10^{20}

Total number of atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = Number of gold, Au atoms+Number of potassium, K atoms +Number of carbon, C atoms + Number of nitrogen, N atoms

Total number of atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = 6.66\times 10^{20}+6.66\times 10^{20}+13.32\times 10^{20}+13.32\times 10^{20}

Total number of atoms in KAu(CN)_2 = 39.96\times 10^{20} atoms

Hence, the total number of atoms in KAu(CN)_2 is 3.996\times 10^{21} atoms.

Ten grams of a gas occupies 12.5 liters at a pressure of 42.0 cm Hg. What is the volume when the pressure has increased to 75.0
Fantom [35]
Based on the question, it is evident that the question is based on Boyle's Law which we will use to find the answer necessary.

Now, Boyle's Equation: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

     V₂ = P₁V₁  ÷  P₂

∴   V₂  =  (12.5L × 42.0 cm · Hg) ÷ 75 cm · Hg

⇒  V₂  = 7 L
 
Thus, the <span>volume when the pressure has increased to 75.0 cm Hg is 7 Litres.</span>

What is the numerical value of the rate constant for a reaction in which [A] is reduced from 0.380 M to 0.215 M in a span of 26.
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

k = 2.17E-2 s-1

Explanation:

Initial Concentration [A]o = 0.380 M

Final Concentration [A] = 0.215 M

time, t = 26.3 s

Unit of rate constant =  s-1

Rate constant = ?

The units of the rate constant depends on the order of the reaction. This is a first order reaction due to the units.

The integral rate law for a first order reaction is;

ln[A] = ln[A]o - kt

ln(0.215) = ln(0.380) - k(26.3)

ln(0.215) - ln(0.380) = - k(26.3)

- k(26.3) = -0.57

k = 0.57 / 26.3 = 0.02167

Reporting to three significant figures using E notation;

k = 2.17E-2 s-1
