What gives an atom its mass?

Almost all of the mass of an atom (more than 99%) is in its nucleus, so "atomic mass" is pretty much a measure of the size of the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are almost exactly the same size.

<span> The nuclear reactor powers plants to inhale heats that are needed to create/produce steam- (a gas that comes from liquid at its boiling point) The process is called fission. Fission entails the splitting on atoms in the nuclear reactor.

You have 16.0 g of some compound and you perform an experiment to remove all of the oxygen, 11.2 g of iron is left. What is the

Makovka662 [10]

The empirical formula of this compound is $Fe_2O_3$

<h3>Empirical formula </h3>

To calculate the empirical formula of a compound, the value of moles of each element is needed.

As we have the information of the mass value, we will use the molar mass expression, which corresponds to:

$MM_O = 16g/mol\\MM_Fe = 55.8g/mol$

$MM = \frac{m}{mol}$

O

$16 = \frac{4.8}{x}$

$x = 0.3mol$

Fe

$55.8=\frac{11.2}{x}\\x = 0.2$

As the value of the empirical formula must be an integer, simply multiply the two values by a common factor:

$O = 0.3 \times 10 = 3\\Fe = 0.2 \times 10 = 2$

$Fe_2O_3$

So, the empirical formula of this compound is $Fe_2O_3$ .
