The atomic mass is the average of the isotopes of the element meaning most averages of isotopes will not be whole numbers
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
The molecule of water has 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.
The ratio of masses are given as:

This illustrates the law of definite proportions which is also known as law of constant compositions .
The law states that 'the elements combining to form compound always combine in a fixed ratio by their mass.'
Whereas :
Law of multiple proportion states that when two elements combine with each other to form more than one compounds , the mass of one element with respect to the fixed mass of another element are in ratio of small whole numbers.
Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.
In a balanced chemical reaction ,total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.
Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.
Answer:
The order will be:
CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃
Explanation:
According to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system we rank the groups based on the atomic number of directly attached atom with the chiral carbon.
For example: between C and H, we rank Carbon first.
If the same atoms are attached for different groups then we prioritized based on the second element with highest atomic number.
For example:
Among CH₃ and C₂H₅, the priority will be given to C₂H₅.
If an atom is double or triple bonded to the directly attached atom then each pi bond is considered to be a new atom.
Hence CH=CH₂ means, that there are two carbons attached to CH carbon.
So the order based on above selection rules will be:
CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃
Answer:
Compound X has a molar mass of 316.25 g*mol^-1 and the following composition:
element & mass %
phosphorus & 39.18%
sulfur & 60.82%
Write the molecular formula of X.
Explanation:
The given molecule of phosphorus and sulfur has molar mass --- 316.25 g.
Empirical formula calculation:
element: phosphorus sulfur
co9mposition: 39.185% 60.82%
divide with
atomic mass: 39.185/31.0 g/mol 60.82/32.0g/mol
=1.26mol 1.90mol
smallest mole ratio: 1.26mol/1.26mol =1 1.90mol/1.26 mol =1.50
multiply with 2: 2 3
Hence, the empirical formula is:
P2S3.
Mass of empirical formula is:
158.0g/mol
Given, molecule has molar mass --- 316.25 g/mol
Hence, the ratio is:
316.25g/mol/158.0 =2
Hence, the molecular formula of the compound is :
2 x (P2S3)
=
