) The atomic number of magnesium is 12.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alisiya [41]2 years ago
4 0

Answer: The difference between these 3 isotopes is the number of neutrons.

The atomic mass of an atom is the number of protons plus neutrons. We know that the atomic number of magnesium is 12, so therefore there are 12 protons.

In Magnesium-24, there are 24-12 neutrons = 12 neutrons.

In Magneusium-25, there are 25-12 neutrons = 13 neutrons

In Magnesium-26, there are 26-12 neutrons = 14 neutrons

Which of the following chemicals is implicated in both global warming and ozone depletion?a. chlorofluorocarbons b. sulfur dioxi
Bingel [31]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Chlorofluorocarbons generally abbreviated as CFCs are a group of organic chemicals used in several household and industrial materials and are responsible for global warming and ozone depletion.

Global warming is the general increase in the atmospheric temperature of the earth continually over the years. It is a direct consequence of climate change which is caused by the continuous release of green house gases into the atmosphere which trap radiated heat from the sun.

Ozone depletion involves anthropogenic activities which lead to decreasing the natural spread of the ozone layer which prevents the direct contact between the sun UV radiation and the earth.

CFCs are implicated in both cases as they are responsible for the two I.e they cause global warming and also deplete the ozone layer. Years back they are basically used in most aerosol cans like perfumes spray, insecticide spray etc. However as a result of the increased knowledge of their dangers, there had been legislations which had cut down on their continuous usage with alternatives being used

What is the mass in grams of 9.76 x 10 12 atoms of naturally occurring sodium?
Fiesta28 [93]
The number of moles in a substance indicates the amount of the substance that contains the same number of particles as 12 g of the Carbon-12 isotope [or equivalent to 6.02 × 10²³] (which is used as a standard in the world of moles).

Now,

          if     6.02 × 10²³ atoms are found in 1 mole ofsodium
   then let  9.76 × 10¹² atoms are found in     x

⇒     x  =    (9.76 × 10¹² )  ÷  (6.02 × 10²³)

            =  1.619 × 10⁻¹¹ mol


Now, mass = moles × molar mass

∴ mass of Na = 1.619 × 10⁻¹¹ mol ×  23 g/mol
                      = 3.72 × 10⁻¹⁰ g

Which equilibrium system has HCO3- acting as a Brønsted-Lowry base?
IrinaVladis [17]
A Brønsted-Lowry base is a base is a proton acceptor.

In the only case where this is done is when HCO3- accepts a proton and becomes H2CO3.

In the other cases, HCO3- is donating a proton which makes it an acid.
