You will want to find how many grams are in a whole mole so you know which element it is. To do this, find out how much of a mole you have.
4.95 x 10^23 atoms / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms (one whole mole of any element) = .8219860511 or ~82% of 1 mole
Now we know that, find what to multiply 20 g by to get the rest of the mole.
1 mole / .8219860511 mole = 1.216565657
20 g x 1.216565657 = ~24.33 g / mol
Now that you have grams per mole, you can look at the periodic table and the molar masses to see which this number is closely aligned.
Your answer is Magnesium (Mg), which has a molar mass of 24.305 g

<span>(a) what is the average volume (in cubic meters) required for each iron atom
For this case, the density of Iron would be </span>7.87g/cm³
<span>
V = 9.27 x 10^-26 kg / </span>7.87g/cm<span>³ ( 1 kg / 1000 g)
</span>V = 1.18 x 10-23 cm³<span>
(b) what is the distance (in meters) between the centers of adjacent atoms?
We assume the atoms as cube, so we use the volume of the cube to calculate the distance of the atoms.
V = </span>1.18 x 10-23 cm<span>³ = s</span>³
s = 2.28 x 10^-8 cm
The Bohr atomic model, relying on quantum mechanics, built upon the Rutherford model to explain the orbits of electrons.
The empirical formula for the unknown compound would be: C2H4O (2 molecules of Carbon, 4 molecules of Hydrogen, and 1 molecule of Oxygen)
