Short Answer

Expert verified
The protonic charge in 100 gm of water is approximately \( 5.4 \times 10^{6} \) C.

Step by step solution

01

Calculate the number of moles of water

First, we need to determine the number of moles of water in the given 100 g sample. To find the moles, we will use the formula: Moles = Mass / Molar mass The molar mass of water (H₂O) is the sum of the atomic masses of two hydrogen atoms (each 1 g/mol) and one oxygen atom (16 g/mol): Molar mass of water = 2 * 1 + 16 = 18 g/mol. Now we can calculate the moles of water in the sample: Moles of water = \( \frac{100 \text{ g}}{18 \text{ g/mol}} \) = 5.56 moles (rounded to two decimal places).
02

Calculate the number of protons in the moles of water

Next, we will find the number of protons in the 5.56 moles of water. Water has 10 protons per molecule: 8 protons from the oxygen atom and 1 proton from each of the two hydrogen atoms. To find the total number of water molecules in the sample, we will use the formula: Number of molecules = Moles × Avogadro's number Avogadro's number is \( 6.022 \times 10^{23} \) molecules/mol. Number of water molecules = 5.56 moles × \( 6.022 \times 10^{23} \) molecules/mol = \( 3.348 \times 10^{24} \) molecules Now, we can find the total number of protons in the sample by multiplying the number of water molecules by the number of protons per water molecule: Total number of protons = \( (3.348 \times 10^{24} \) water molecules) x (10 protons/water molecule) = \(3.348 \times 10^{25} \) protons
03

Calculate the protonic charge

Finally, we will calculate the protonic charge using the total number of protons in the sample. The charge of a single proton is approximately \( 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \) C (Coulombs). To find the total protonic charge, we will multiply the charge of a single proton by the total number of protons: Protonic charge = \( (1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C/proton}) \times (3.348 \times 10^{25} \text{ protons}) = 5.3568 \times 10^{6} \text{ C} \) Comparing with the given options, we can round the protonic charge to \( 5.4 \times 10^{6} \) C. Therefore, the correct answer is (B) \( 5.4 \times 10^{6} \) C.
