<span>Atomic mass is, literally, a measure of mass. 

</span><span>One atomic mass unit is a very, very, very, very, very, very small fraction of a gram.

It is actually defined using the most common isotope of carbon, which is carbon-12.  

The average atomic mass of Oxygen is 15.999 u. </span>

Mercury has an atomic number of 80 and a mass number of 200.
denis23 [38]
C. The mass number is the amount of Protons and electrons there are combined, so 200 - 80 is 120.

What is the difference between a physical and chemical change? From what I know a chemical change modifies the atoms of an objec
blsea [12.9K]
Physical change: a change in which no new substances are formed. the form of the substance is changed but not it's chemical composition (ice melting, bread toasting)

chemical change: any change that results in the formation of new chemical substances. this type of change modifies molecules and atoms by making and breaking the bonds between atoms! (iron rusting, gas burning)

so basically a physical change just changes the appearance of a substance, but a chemical change changes the makeup on a molecular level. i hope this helps you out!

A "fizz saver" pumps air under pressure into a soda bottle to keep gas from escaping. will this keep co2 in the soda bottle? exp
timofeeve [1]
<span>A fizz saver forms an airtight seal around the now-upsidedown soda bottle, and the pressure exerted by the drink and the atmospere outside pushes out the drink through the slightly-elevated spout. The CO2 gas does not fizz out because it stays at the bottom of the upside-down bottle. Thus the CO2 gas is trapped and the drink is carbonated at a longer time.</span>

A pressure cooker contains 5.68 liters of air at a temperature of 394 K. If the absolute pressure of the air in the pressure coo
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall find out volume of air at NTP or at 273 K and 10⁵ Pa ( 1 atm )

Let it be V₂

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

\frac{2\times 10^5\times 5.68}{394} =\frac{10^5\times V_2}{273}

V₂ = 7.87 litres

22.4 litres of any gas is equivalent to 1 mole

7.87 litres of air will be equivalent to

7.87 / 22.4 moles

= .35 moles .

You have 40 g of a radioisotope. If the half-life of this radioisotope is 4 days, how many grams will remain after 12 days?
anygoal [31]
With reference to radioactive material, half-life is the time required to 50% depletion of initial amount of material. 

Given: Initial amount of radioactive material = 40 g
Half life = 4 days.

Therefore, After 4 days, amount of compound left = 40/2 = 20 g
After 8 days, i.e 2 half-life, amount of compound left = 20/2 = 10 g
Finally after 12 days, i.e. 3 half-life, amount of compound left = 10/2 = 5 g

Thus, 5 <span>grams will remain after 12 days</span>
