Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:- Law of definite proportions.

Explanations:- The chemical composition of a compound is always constant means it contains the same elements in exactly same proportions by mass. This is called "Law of definite proportions."

Molecular formula of water is H_2O . It has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Atomic mass of H is 1.008 and that of oxygen atom is 15.999.

Molar mass of water = 2(1.008) + 15.999 = 18.015

mass percentage of H = ((2.016)/(18.015))100  = 11.2%

mass percentage of O = ((15.999)/(18.015))100  = 88.8%

These percentages are always fix, no matter from where the sample of water is collected.

Are all elements abbreviated with one or two letters? If not, name some that aren't.

Answers

Answer:

Some elements are abbreviated with more than two letters such as the Ununtrium (Uut), Ununpentium (Uup), Ununseptum (Uus) and Ununoctio (Uuo).

Explanation:

Some elements have intuitive symbology, such as Chlorine (Cl), among others, which are represented by the first letters that make up the name. However, there are others who receive symbols that do not remember the name of the element, such as Lead (Pb). Regardless of the similarity between the names and the symbol of the elements, most of them have the symbol composed of one or two letters, except for the elements Ununtrium (Uut), Ununpentium (Uup), Ununseptum (Uus) and Ununoctio (Uuo).

Some elements that are not abbreviated with one or two letters on the periodic table are Ununoctium (Uuo) and Ununtrium (Uut).

Maki uses 20 gallons of a solution with an unknown ethanol concentration and 60 gallons of a 12% ethanol solution to make 80 gallons of a 10% solution. What is the value of x, the concentration of the unknown ethanol solution?. a. 0.02.
b. 0.04.
c. 0.05.
d. 0.08

Answers

This question is based on the concept of percentage by mass. Therefore the value of x, concentration of unknown ethanol solution is 4% when 20 gallons of a known solution is used. Option b is correct option

What is percentage by mass?

Mass percentage represents the the percentage of each element that is making a particular compound. Mass percentage does not have any unit as numerator and denominator contains the same unit.

Mathematically,

Percentage of mass = (component’s mass ÷ total mass) x 100%

According to the question the equation can be written as:

20× (x÷ 100) + 60×0.12 = 80× 0.10

x÷5 + 7.2 = 8

x÷ 5 = 0.8

x = 4%

concentration of unknown solution = 4%

Therefore, the value of x, concentration of unknown ethanol solution is 4% when 20 gallons of a solution is used. Option b is correct option

the correct answer is B

Which statement compares the masses of two subatomic particles?(1) The mass of an electron is greater than the mass of a proton.
(2) The mass of an electron is greater than the mass of a neutron.
(3) The mass of a proton is greater than the mass of an electron.
(4) The mass of a proton is greater than the mass of a neutron.

Answers

atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons

mass of proton is 1 atomic mass unit and proton is also 1 atomic mass unit

masses of protons and neutrons are very similar

mass of an electron is 1/1840th of 1 atomic mass unit

mass of electron is insignificant when compared to masses of neutrons and protons

protons and neutrons have a larger mass than electrons

from the given options correct answer is

(3) The mass of a proton is greater than the mass of an electron


Electrons have mass 0
Protons have mass 1
Neutrons have mass 1

(1) 0 is not greater than 1
(2) 0 is not greater than 1
(3) 1 is greater than 0
(4) 1 is not greater than 1

So the answer is (3) The mass of a proton is greater than the mass of an electron
