Before raw data can be used as scientific evidence, it must be analyzed and summarized. One way of summarizing data is to find t

he mean, or average, of a set of data points. What method is used for calculating the mean?

To calculate the mean, you add up all of the data values, and then divide that sum by the *number* of values.

For instance, if you wanted to find the mean score at a home run derby, and you’re given the following numbers for home runs scored by each player:

5, 4, 6, 5, 3, 1

You could calculate the mean by adding all of the score up

5 + 4 + 6 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 24

And dividing by the number of hitters (in this case, 6)

24 / 6 = 4

So the *mean score* of the home run derby would be 4.

You have 0.21 moles of Al how many atoms do you have
ZanzabumX [31]

Number of atoms : 1.26 x 10²³

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

0.21 moles of Al, so n = 0.21

Number of atoms :

\tt N=0.21\times 6.02\times 10^{23}\\\\N=1.26\times 10^{23}

An atom of 125Sn has a mass of 124.907785 amu. Calculate the binding energy in MeV per atom. Use the masses: mass of 1H atom = 1
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1.06×10³ MeV/atom

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

Also, atomic number of Sn = 5 0

Thus, the number of protons = 50

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

125 =  50 + Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 75

Mass of neutron = 1.008665 amu

Mass of proton = 1.007825 amu

Calculated mass = Number of protons*Mass of proton + Number of neutrons*Mass of neutron

Thus,  

Calculated mass = (50*1.007825 + 75*1.008665) amu = 126.041125 amu

Given mass = 124.907785 amu

<u>Mass defect = Δm = |126.041125 - 124.907785| amu = 1.13334 amu </u>

The conversion of amu to MeV is shown below as:-

1 amu = 931.5 MeV

<u>So, Energy = 1.13334*931.5 MeV/atom = 1.06×10³ MeV/atom</u>
