Mass/volume = density. We know the volume (5 cm cubed) and the density (8.96). We plug these into the equation to find the mass:
M/5 = 8.96
M = 44.8 grams
The masses of the 2 most
common isotopes of Cl are 35 and 37. Therefore we can formulate 3 possible
masses of Cl2:
<span>
35 + 35 = 70
35 + 37 = 72
37 + 37 = 74
<span>However, Cl 35 is the most common isotope of chlorine of the
two therefore it is the most probable that two Cl 35 atoms will combine, so 70
is the most common among all.
