$\bold{\huge{\blue{\underline{Answer}}}}$

$\bold{\underline{ Given :- }}$

Atomic number of an element with 6 neutrons and a mass number of 10

$\bold{\underline{ Let's \:Begin}}$

$\sf{We\: know\: that, }$

Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom

$\sf{Whereas ,}$

Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

$\sf{We\: have \:number \:of \:neutrons = 6 }$

$\sf{ Mass\: number = 10 }$

$\bold{\underline{Therefore}}$

$\sf{ Mass\: number = Protons + neutrons}$

$\sf{ 10 = Protons + 6 }$

$\sf{ Protons = 10 - 6}$

$\sf{ Protons = 4 }$

$\sf{ Thus, \: the \: number \: of \: protons \: is \:4}$

$\bold{\underline{ Therefore,\:we\:know\:that, }}$

$\sf{ No\: of\: protons = Atomic \:number }$

$\sf{ 4 = Atomic \:number }$

$\sf { Hence, \:atomic\: number\: of\: the\: element\: is\: 4}$

What is the polarity of black pepper

leva [86]

Answer:

Polarity in chemistry referred to physical properties of compounds related to solubility, melting and boiling properties.

Polarity of black pepper can be seen when black pepper is sprinkled on water. The balck pepper float on water and get displaced if touched.

It means black pepper is non-polar and have no difference in electronegativity between bonded atoms. Black pepper is so light in weight and non-polar, the surface tension of water keep it floating in the water.

What is the mass of 4.5 x 10^22 molecules of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)? Show your work in the space below.

valentinak56 [21]

Given :

Number of molecules of hydrogen peroxide, N = 4.5 × 10²².

To Find :

The mass of given molecules of hydrogen peroxide.

Solution :

We know, 1 mole of every compound contains Nₐ = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules.

So, number of moles of hydrogen peroxide is :

$n = \dfrac{N}{N_a}\\\\n = \dfrac{4.5\times 10^{22}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\\\\n = 0.0747 \ moles$

Now, mass of hydrogen peroxide is given as :

m = n × M.M

m = 0.0747 × 34 grams

m = 2.54 grams

Hence, this is the required solution.
