Atomic mass Boron ( B ) = 10.811 u.m.a
10.811 g -------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
5.40 g ----------------- ?? atoms
5.40 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 10.811 =
3.0069x10²³ atoms
What are you asking???? If the formula had no atoms of oxygen then......
Answer:
78
Explanation:
atomic number is number of protons
According to law of definite proportion, for a compound, elements always combine in fixed ratio by mass.
The formula of compound remains the same, let it be a_{x}b_{y} where, a and b are two different elements.
Since, the ratio of mass remains the same , calculate the ratio of masses of element a and b in both cases
\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{35}=\frac{10}{y}
rearranging,
y=\frac{10\times 35}{15}=23.3
Thus, mass of b produced will be 23.3 g.
