Ans: Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
Answer:
F2 is the limiting reactant
27.6 grams of NaF is produced.
Explanation:
Balance the equation first.
2Na+ F2 ---> 2NaF
To find the limiting reactant, solve for how much NaF can be produced with Na and F2
12.5g F2 x (1 mole F2/ 38.00 grams F2)x (2 mole NaF/ 1 mole F2)
=0.658 moles NaF
16.2g Na x (1 mole Na/ 22.99 grams Na)x (2 mole NaF/ 2 mole Na)
=0.705 moles NaF
Since F2 produced the least NaF, F2 is the limiting reactant.
Now, to find how much NaF there is, use the moles solved above with F2 as the limiting reactant.
0.658 moles NaF x (41.99 grams NaF/ 1 mole NaF)= 27.6 moles NaF
27.6 moles of NaF would be theoretically produced.

Answer:
The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.
Explanation:
The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.
Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.
AMU:
Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.
This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale
relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu
relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu
relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu
relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu
The accepted model of the atom was changed.
