Consider two samples of carbon. One is a sample of one mole of carbon atoms obtained from the environment (i.e. isotopes are pre

sent according to their natural abundance), and the other is a sample of one mole of carbon-12 atoms (i.e. isotopically pure). Which sample has a higher mass, or are they both the same mass? Justify your answer, either with words or mathematically

Answer:

The sample obtained from the environment has a higher mass

Explanation:

A simple way to put the answer is that the element carbon -as found in nature- has a molar mass of 12.0107 g/mol, because there are a few isotopes of 14C and 13C; and <em>the molar mass is an expression of the isotopes' natural abundance</em>.

So 1 mole of carbon obtained from the environment would weigh 12.0107 g, while a sample of isotopically pure carbon would weigh 12.0000 g.

I went for a walk the other day. I went four blocks east, then seven blocks south, then one block west and finally
nalin [4]

Answer:

a) distance is 4+7+1+8=20 blocks

b) displacement is 10 blocks

Explanation:

find displacement: x and y

x axis displacement = 4-1 = 3 blocks

y axis displacement = -7+8= 1 block

displacement = the square root of 3^2 + 1^2

= 9+1 = 10 blocks.

You can find the angle of displacement with respect to the initial position using trig identities, if you wish.

Describe the structure of a typical metal such as iron ?<br>assaaap
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Metals consist of giant structures of atoms arranged in a regular pattern. The electrons from the outer shells of the metal atoms are delocalised , and are free to move through the whole structure. This sharing of delocalised electrons results in strong metallic bonding .

In the bohr model of the hydrogen atom, how does the radius of the electron’s orbit depend on the principal quantum number?
wolverine [178]
The radius of the electron's or basically the energy level for which the electron is found orbiting the nucleus of he hydrogen atom, as the principal quantum number tells us primarily the energy level that the electron will be found, is it the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. The other quantum numbers tells us more specifically as per the subshell of the main shell the electron is in, the spin of the electron etc.
