The answer is c) Electrical energy
To find the number of moles from a mass given, simply look to the formula n (moles) = m (mass, g) / MM (molar mass).
Mass was given, 36.04
Molar mass is the total atomic mass of all the atoms present. Water is H20, so that means 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen. The atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 and atomic mass of oxygen is 16. Therefore MM= 1 + 1 + 16= 18.
Plug that value in and the full equation is
n = 36.04/18
n = 2.002 moles
= 2 moles
The number above the symbol is the atomic mass (or atomic weight). This is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. The number below the symbol is the atomic number and this reflects the number of protons in the nucleus of each element's atom. Every element has a unique atomic number.
Best Answer
C) is the best description, although a scientific theory is not necessarily a "fact". They are, however, based on evidence.
A) is complete garbage.
B) is a good description of a scientific "law"- something that predicts how a certain event will occur without explaining why this is (for instance, the law of gravity accurately describes the gravitational forces between two bodies, but does not explain why these forces are there).
D) is a scientific "hypothesis"- an explanation for an observed phenomena that is yet to be proven.
