The atomic mass of an element on the Periodic Table is the weighted average mass of the isotopes of that element. True False
Gala2k [10]
True!

For example:

The atomic mass of carbon is 12.011 (i think) and the weight of carbon is 12. But with C13 and C14 being a little higher, it makes the average higher. Random fact: C14 is used for carbon dating.

Consider the Van der Vaals equation of state: (????+????????????)(????−????)=???????????? where p is pressure, V is volume, n is
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Units of a = \frac{atm\ L^2}{mol^2}

Units of b = \frac{L}{mol}

Explanation:

The Van der Waal's equation  is:-

\left(P+\frac{an^2}{V^2}\right)\left(V-nb\right)=nRT

Where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value

a and b are van der Waal's constant

If pressure is taken in atm and volume in L. So,

P+\frac{an^2}{V^2} represents the pressure correction term. Then,

Units of a = \frac{atm\ L^2}{mol^2}

V-nb represents the volume correction term. Then,

Units of b = \frac{L}{mol}

The combustion of propane may be described by the chemical equation C 3 H 8 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 3 CO 2 ( g ) + 4 H 2 O ( g ) C
Kipish [7]

Answer: 72 grams of O_2(g) are needed to completely burn 19.7 g C_3H_8(g)

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Putting in the values we get:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{19.7g}{44g/mol}=0.45moles

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of C_3H_8 requires 5 moles of oxygen

0.45 moles of C_3H_8 require= \frac{5}{1}\times 0.45=2.25 moles of oxygen

Mass of O_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=2.25\times 32=72g

72 grams of O_2(g) are needed to completely burn 19.7 g C_3H_8(g)
