The following is the introduction to a special e-publication called Determining the Age of the Earth (click the link to see a table of contents). Published earlier this year, the collection draws articles from the archives of Scientific American. In the collection, this introduction appears with the title, “Stumbling Toward an Understanding of Geologic Timescales.”
<span>(a) what is the average volume (in cubic meters) required for each iron atom
For this case, the density of Iron would be </span>7.87g/cm³
<span>
V = 9.27 x 10^-26 kg / </span>7.87g/cm<span>³ ( 1 kg / 1000 g)
</span>V = 1.18 x 10-23 cm³<span>
(b) what is the distance (in meters) between the centers of adjacent atoms?
We assume the atoms as cube, so we use the volume of the cube to calculate the distance of the atoms.
V = </span>1.18 x 10-23 cm<span>³ = s</span>³
s = 2.28 x 10^-8 cm
An exothermic reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which energy is released to the environment in form of heat or light. Endothermic reaction in the other hand is a chemical reaction where energy is taken from the surroundings and thus the surroundings end up with less energy than they started with. In this case; the above reaction is an Exothermic reaction (heat is being released to the surroundings).
