Answer:

Mass of Avogadro's number of P atoms = 31 g

Mass of 1 P atom = 5.15*10⁻²³ g

Explanation:

The two rules to consider are:

1) Mass of 1 mole of an element is equal to its molar mass in grams

2) 1 mole of any element contains Avogadro's number of atoms

i.e. 1 mole = 6.023*10^23 atoms(or molecules or particles)

For P-31

1 mole of P-31 = 31 grams

i.e. Mass of Avogadro's number of P atoms = 31 g

6.023*10^23 P atoms = 31 g

Therefore, mass of 1 P atom is:

= \frac{1\ P\ atom *31\ g}{6.023*10^{23}\ atoms}=5.15*10^{-23}\ g

The mass of on P atom would be 31 divided by 6.02 * 10^23
The mass of Avogadro's number of P atoms would be 31, since the atomic weight of and element is the mass of exactly one mole of that element, and Avogadro's number is the number of atoms in one mole.

Which of the following human activities can cause eutrophication of lakes?
Lana71 [14]

Answer: 1) Adding fertilizers to soil

Explanation: Eutrophication is the presence of excess mineral and nutrients in water bodies which result into increased plant and algal growth.

Fertilizers containing nitrogen and phosphorus are used to make soil more fertile in farming.  The overuse of fertilizers can cause these nutrients to runoff the farmer's fields and enter water bodies, thus leading to eutrophication.

Atoms of which types of elements tend to gain electrons? Atoms of which types of elements tend to lose electrons?
ollegr [7]
Atoms of elements that are nonmetals tend to gain electrons and atoms of metallic elements tend to lose electrons. Metals have few electrons in their valence shells. By losing those electrons, these metals achieve noble gas configuration and satisfy the octet rule. Nonmetals that have close to 8 electrons in their valence shells readily accept electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. An example is the reaction between calcium and oxygen. Calcium is a metal and has 2 valence electrons. Oxygen is a nonmetal and has 6 valence electrons. Calcium gives up its two valence electrons and oxygen accepts them and an ionic bond is established resulting in the formation of anew compound namely calcium oxide.

What happens to water when it warms above 4 C
xxMikexx [17]
At 4 °C, the clusters start forming. The molecules are still slowing down and coming closer together, but the formation of clusters makes the molecules be further apart. Thus, the density of water is a maximum at 4 °C.
