2.85 × 10^22. A diamond with a mass of 0.568 g contains

2.85 × 10^22 atoms C.

Diamond is a form of pure carbon.

a) Convert grams of C to moles of C

Moles of C = 0.568 g C × (1 mol C/12.01 g C) = 0.047 29 mol C

b) Convert moles of C to atoms of C

Atoms of C = 0.047 29 mol C × (6.022 × 10^23 atoms C)/(1 mol C)

= 2.85 × 10^22 atoms C

Solid carbon (C) can burn in oxygen (O2). Select

babunello [35]

Answer:

OCO

Another way of writing CO₂

Explanation:

A reaction equation has reactants on the left and products on the right.

The reactants are carbon and oxygen. The product is carbon dioxide.

C + O₂ → CO₂

You might see the equation both ways.

C + O₂ → OCO

C + O₂ in the products would mean no reaction has occurred. The problem can solid carbon can burn in oxygen, so a reaction will occur. For no reaction, you would put "NR" in the products.

OCO is the structural way of writing CO₂. Both have one carbon atom (C) and two oxygen atoms (O).

C + 2O is not possible. Oxygen, if alone, has to be at least O₂ because it's a diatomic molecule.

Decide which element probably has a boiling point most and least similar to the boiling point of cesium.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Take a look at the attachment below

Explanation:

Take a look at the periodic table. As you can see, Rubidium is the closest element to Cesium, and happens to have the closest boiling point to Cesium, with only a difference of about 30 degrees.

Respectively, you would think that fluorine should have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, considering it is the farthest away from the element out of the 4 given. This is not an actual rule, there are no fixed trends of boiling points in the periodic table, there are some but overall the trends vary. However in this case fluorine does have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, a difference of about 1,546.6 degrees.

Hope that helps!

How are we made of the same atoms in stars?

Stardust atoms are heavier elements, the percentage of star mass in our body is much more impressive. Most hydrogen in our body floats around in the form of water .
