Now to solve this problem, we are given the number of atoms therefore we must first convert this into number of moles. We can do this by using the Avogadro’s number. Calculating for number of moles of Carbon:

number of moles Carbon = 21 atoms of carbon (1 mole / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms C)

number of moles Carbon = 3.49 x 10^-23 mol C

 

Converting this to mass by multiplying the molar mass of C:

mass Carbon = 3.49 x 10^-23 mol C (12 g / mol)

mass Carbon = 4.18 x 10^-22 g

 

Therefore the mass of one molecule of Cortisone is:

mass of 1 molecule Cortisone = 4.18 x 10^-22 g / 0.6998

mass of 1 molecule Cortisone = 5.98 x 10^-22 g per molecule

 

Converting this to mass per 1 mol of Cortisone, by using again the Avogadro’s number:

mass of 1 mol Cortisone = (5.98 x 10^-22 g / molecule) (<span>6.022 x 10^23  molecules / mol)</span>

mass of 1 mol Cortisone = 360.10 g / mol = molar mass of cortisone

 

Answer:

360.10 g / mol

Choose all the answers that apply. What are examples of how science has influenced technology?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

A and B

Explanation:

A: The discovery of x- rays is a scientific discovery that led to X-ray machines which is technology.

B: Finding out that massive amounts of energy can be released by splitting the nucleus of an atom was the discovery and it led to nuclear power plants.

Satellites helping scientists map the earth doesn't really have an example of science. It just says that Satellites help scientists, and satellites are technology.

Robotic machines are also technology. Robots assisting doctors in surgery is technology helping people not science influencing technology.

So A and B would be the answers.

Hope this helps :)

Perform the following conversion: (plz show work)<br> 1.31km = _______m
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
If this is meters, then it’d be 1310.

1km = 1000m

.31 x 1000 = 310

So, 1000 + 310 = 1310m
