Atoms are made up of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus, and the nucleus is found in the very center of an atom. Protons are positively charged whereas neutrons have no charge.

Electrons are found on the electron shells, and the electron shells are found in in the outermost region of an atom. The outermost electron shell contains valence electrons. Electrons are negatively charged.

The number of protons vary depending on the atomic number of an atom. The number of neutrons vary depending on the atomic mass and atomic number of an atom. To find the neutron you must subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number. The number of electrons in a neutral atom also vary depending on the atomic number.

Sorry this is so long. I didn't quite understand your question so I added the last paragraph in just in case it was helpful in any way. I hope I helped!

Given 50.0 grams of Strontium, find grams of Phosphorus required for complete reaction
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

                     Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation is as follow:

                                          6 Sr + P4 → 2 Sr₃P₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of Sr as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 50.0 g / 87.62 g/mol

Moles = 0.570 moles

Step 2: Find moles of P₄ as;

According to equation,

6 moles of Sr reacted with  =  1 mole of P₄

So,

0.570 moles of Sr will react with  =  X moles of P₄

Solving for X,

X = 1 mol × 0.570 mol / 6 mol

X = 0.0952 mol of P₄

Step 3: Calculate mass of P₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.0952 mol × 123.89 g/mol

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

How could an increase in industrial activity in developing nations contribute to global climate change?
netineya [11]
If there is an increase in industrial activity, that means that more heat will be dissipated to the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide. Industrialization requires fuel to keep the processes on the go. At the end of the pipeline, the combustion of fuel would result to carbon dioxide released to the atmosphere. That's how it is contributing to the global climate change through the greenhouse effect.

certain gas occupies 6.24L at pressure of 760 mm Hg.If the pressure is reduced to 60.0mm Hg,what would the new volume be?​
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

79.04 L

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial Volume; V1 = 6.24L

Initial Pressure; P1 = 760 mm Hg

Final pressure; P2 = 60.0mm Hg

To solve for final volume, we will use Boyles law;

P1•V1 = P2•V2

Let's make V2 which is the final volume the subject;

V2 = (P1•V1)/P2

V2 = (760 × 6.24)/60

V2 = 79.04 L

Calculate the density of helium if a balloon with a capacity of 5.00 L holds 0.890 g.
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Density is m/V. Also, 1 liter = 1000 cm^3. So, we get 0.890/(5*1000) = 1.78*10^{-4} g/cm^3. You can convert this to kg/m^3 as well by multiplying it by 10. Depends which one you want.
