How marly electrons are in an atom of elemental
sodium?

Answers

Answer: 11 Electrons

Explanation:

We know that the atomic number of sodium is 11. This tells us that sodium has 11 protons and because it is neutral it has 11 electrons.

Answer:

The sodium atom is left with a full outermost electron shell with eight electrons, and the outermost shell of the other atom is full as well.

Explanation:

The sodium atom now has a positive electrical charge of plus 1, and the other atom has a negative charge of minus 1. The two opposite charges attract, and the two atoms now form the molecule of a compound.

Solids, liquids and gases are the three most commonly accepted phases of matter. Explain the properties of each phase, including their relative energy.

Answers

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

The molecules of a substance attract each other.

They are also in constant motion.

Their kinetic energy increases with the temperature.

1. Solids

If the temperature is low enough, the molecules will have little kinetic energy.

They will not be able to escape the attractions of their neighbours, so they will be fixed in place in a crystalline array.

All they can do is vibrate about their position in the array.

The substance will be a solid.

2. Liquids

If the temperature is higher, the molecules will have enough kinetic energy to slide past each other, but not enough to escape the attractions of nearby molecules.

The substance will be a liquid.

3. Gases

If the temperature is high enough, the molecules will have enough kinetic energy to escape from the surface and fly off into space.

The molecules will on average so far apart that they won't feel the attractions of others.

When they do collide, they will have energy to bounce off each other rather than stick together.

The substance will be a gas.

 

If 1.50 L of 0.780 mol/L sodium sulfide is mixed with 1.00 L of a 3.31 mol/L lead(II) nitrate solution, what mass of precipitate would you expect to form?

Answers

Answer:

336.1 g of PbS precipitate

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

Na2S(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) ----> 2NaNO3(aq) + PbS(s)

Ionically;

Pb^2+(aq) + S^2-(aq) -----> PbS(s)

Number of moles of sodium sulphide= concentration of sodium sulphide × volume of sodium sulphide

Number of moles of sodium sulphide= 0.780 × 1.5 = 1.17 moles

Number of moles of lead II nitrate= concentration of lead II nitrate × volume of lead II nitrate

Number of moles of lead II nitrate= 3.31× 1.00= 3.31 moles

Then we determine the limiting reactant. The limiting reactant yields the least amount of product.

Since 1 moles of sodium sulphide yields 1 mole of lead II sulphide

1.17 moles of sodium sulphide also yields 1.17 moles of lead II sulphide

Hence sodium sulphide is the limiting reactant.

Thus mass of precipitate formed= amount of lead II sulphide × molar mass of sodium sulphide

Molar mass of lead II sulphide= 287.26 g/mol

Mass of lead II sulphide = 1.17 moles × 287.26 g/mol

Mass of lead II sulphide= 336.1 g of PbS precipitate

7. What volume of a 0.10 mol/l HCl solution is needed to neutralize 10 ml of a 0.15
mol/l LiOH solution (5 points)

Answers

Answer: The volume of a 0.10 mol/l HCl solution needed to neutralize 10 ml of a 0.15 mol/l LiOH solution is 15 ml

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

[tex]n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2[/tex]

where,

[tex]n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1[/tex] are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is [tex]HCl[/tex]

[tex]n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2[/tex] are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is LiOH.

We are given:

[tex]n_1=1\\M_1=0.10mol/L\\V_1=?mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.15mol/L\\V_2=10mL[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]1\times 0.10\times V_1=1\times 0.15\times 10\\\\V_1=15mL[/tex]

Thus the volume of a 0.10 mol/l HCl solution needed to neutralize 10 ml of a 0.15 mol/l LiOH solution is 15 ml

If the temperature outside increases, but the amount of water vapor stays the same, what happens to the relative humidity? (50 points, please explain)

Answers

If the water vapor content remains the same and the temperature decreases, the relative humidity rises.

If the water vapor content remains the same and the temperature increases, the relative humidity falls.

This is because colder air doesn’t need as much moisture to become saturated as warmer air.

c. C(CH3)3OH
d. CH3CH(OH)CH3

Answers

Answer: Thus [tex]CH_3CH(OH)CH_3[/tex] is a secondary alkanol.

Explanation:

Alkanol are compounds which contains carbons bonded by single bonds and contains hydroxy (-OH) as functional group.

Primary alkanol are those compounds which contain hydroxyl group attached a carbon which is further attached to a single carbon atom. Example: [tex]CH_3CH_2CH_2OH[/tex] and [tex]CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH[/tex]

Secondary alkanol are those compounds which contain hydroxyl group attached to a carbon which is further attached to two more carbon atoms.Example: [tex]CH_3CH(OH)CH_3[/tex]

Tertiary alkanol are those compounds which contain hydroxyl group attached to a carbon which is further attached to three more carbon atoms. Example: [tex]C(CH_3)_3OH[/tex]

Thus [tex]CH_3CH(OH)CH_3[/tex] is a secondary alkanol.

1. Calculate the mass of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) present in a 0.831 L container if the pressure is 100 kPa at a temperature of 27 oC. R = 8.31 kPa x L / mol x K. (K = oC + 273).

2. A 33.2 L tank contains 280 g of compressed helium. If the pressure inside the tank is 700.0 kPa, what is the temperature of the compressed gas? You must convert the mass of helium into moles using the molar mass of He. The conversion factor will be 1 mol / molar mass of helium. R = 8.31 kPa x L / mol x K

Answers

Answer: See below

Explanation:

1. To calculate the mass, you know you can convert by using molar mass. Since mass is in grams, we can use molar mass to convert moles to grams. This calls for the Ideal Gas Law.

Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT

We manipulate the equation so that we are solving for moles, then convert moles to grams.

n=PV/RT

P= 100 kPa

V= 0.831 L

R= 8.31 kPa*L/mol*K

T= 27°C+273= 300 K

Now that we have our values listed, we can plug in to find moles.

[tex]n=\frac{(100kPa)(0.831L)}{(8.31kPa*l/molK)(300K)}[/tex]

[tex]n=0.033mol[/tex]

We use the molar mass of NO₂ to find grams.

[tex]0.033mol*\frac{46.005g}{1mol }=1.52 g[/tex]

The mass is 1.52 g.

2. To calculate the temperature, we need to use the Ideal Gas Law.

Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT

We can manipulate the equation so that we are solving for temperature.

T=PV/nR

P= 700.0 kPa

V= 33.2 L

R= 8.31 kPa*L/mol*K

n= 70 mol

Now that we have our values, we can plug in and solve for temperature.

[tex]T=\frac{(700kPa)(33.2L)}{(70mol)(8.31 kPa*L/molK)}[/tex]

[tex]T=40K[/tex]

The temperature is 40 K.

A 14.00-g piece of iron absorbs 1000 joules of heat energy, and its temperature changes from 25°C to 125°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of iron.

Answers

Answer:

THE SPECIFIC HEAT OF IRON IS 0.714 J/g °C

Explanation:

Heat  absorbed = 1000 J

Mass of the piece of iron = 14 g

Temeperature changes = ( 125-25)°C= 100°C

specific heat of iron = unknown

To find the specific heat of iron in the question use the formula of heat

Heat = mass * specific heat * temperature change

Specific heat = Heat / mass * temperature change

Specific heat = 1000 / 14 * 100

Specific heat = 1000 / 1400

Specific heat = 0.714 J/g °C

So therefore, the specific heat of iron is 0.714 J/g °C

Allicin is the compound responsible for the characteristic smell of Garlic. An analysis of the compound gives the following percent composition by mass; C = 44.4 percent, H = 6.21 percent. S = 39.5 percent, O = 9086 percent. Calculate its empirical formula. What is its molecular formula given that its molar mass is about 162 g?

Answers

Answer:

The empirical formula is same as the molecular formula = C6H10S2O

Explanation:

we start by dividing the percentage of each of the elements by their atomic mass

Carbon = 44.4/12 = 3.7

Hydrogen = 6.21/1 = 6.21

Sulphur = 39.5/32 = 1.234375

oxygen = 9.89/16 = 0.618125

That of oxygen is smallest so we divide all by that of oxygen

C = 3.7 / 0.618125 = 6

H = 6.21/ 0.618125 = 10

S = 1.234375/ 0.618125 = 2

Automatically, oxygen is 1

So the empirical formula is;

C6H10S2O

Let’s get its molecular formula. We multiply each of the subscript by the number;

(72 + 10 + 64 + 16)n= 162

162n = 162

n = 1

So the molecular formula is same as the empirical formula

Answers

Answer: The chemical name of the covalent compound [tex]P_4O_9[/tex]  is, tetraphosphorous nonaoxide.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is a compound where the sharing of electrons takes place between elements where both the elements are non-metals.

The naming of covalent compound is given by:

1. The less electronegative element is written first.

2. The more electronegative element is written second. Then a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.

3. If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on.

Hence, the correct name for the compound [tex]P_4O_9[/tex] which is a covalent compound is, tetraphosphorous nonaoxide.
