Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any or series of chemical reactions.

A compound can be broken done by chemical reactions

<h3>Element and compound</h3>

An element can be defined as species of atoms having a certain number of protons in their nuclei and pure substance of that species.  

Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any or series of chemical reactions.

A compound can be defined as a chemical substance  that is composed of numerous identical molecules containing atoms from more than one element and held together by chemical bonds.

<u>Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

  • Use Dimensional Analysis
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 3.2 × 10²⁴ atoms Si

[Solve] grams Si

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

[PT] Molar Mass of Si - 28.09 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                       \displaystyle 3.2 \cdot 10^{24} \ atoms \ Si(\frac{1 \ mol \ Si}{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si})(\frac{28.09 \ g \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:                                                            \displaystyle 149.266 \ g \ Si

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. Instructed to round to 2 sig figs.</em>

149.266 g Si ≈ 150 g Si

What is a empirical formula
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element in the compound. It is determined using data from experiments and therefore empirical.

For example, the molecular formula of glucose is C 6H 12O 6 but the empirical formula is CH 2O.

Another chemistry question i’m not good at this at all:( has me stressed
adoni [48]

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 15.86 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Z-16.000 amu = 205

Number of atoms of Z-14.000 amu = 15

Average atomic mass  = ?

Solution:

Total number of atoms = 205 + 15 = 220

Percentage of Z-16.000 = 205/220 ×100 = 93.18%

Percentage of Z-14.000 = 15/220 ×100 = 6.82 %

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (93.18×16.000)+(6.82×14.000) /100

Average atomic mass =  1490.88 + 95.48 / 100

Average atomic mass =  1586.36 / 100

Average atomic mass = 15.86 amu.
