The metric system is based on what number?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

10

Explanation:

The prefixes attached to metric units carry the same meaning for all base units. The metric system is based upon powers of ten, which is convenient because: A measurement in the metric system that is represented by a rational number remains a rational number after metric unit conversion.

How many grams of magnesium acetate are in 8.95x10^23 formula units?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

211.63 g.

Explanation:

  • Particles could refer to atoms, molecules, formula units.
  • <em>Knowing that every one mole of a substance contains Avogadro's no. of molecules (NA = 6.022 x 10²³).</em>

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:  </u></em>

1.0 mole → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

??? mole → 8.95 x 10²³ molecules.

  • The no. of moles of magnesium acetate = (8.95 x 10²³ molecules) (1.0 mole) / (6.022 x 10²³ molecules) = 1.486 mol.

∴ The grams of magnesium acetate are in 8.95 x 10²³ formula units = n x molar mass = (1.486 mol)(142.394 g/mol) = 211.63 g.

Uranium-267 undergoes alpha decay, what is the mass of the new element?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

will this help ?

Explanation:

(108Hs) is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 265Hs in 1984. There are 12 known isotopes from 263Hs to 277Hs and 1–4 isomers. The most stable isotope of hassium cannot be determined based on existing data due to uncertainty that arises from the low number of measurements. The confidence interval of half-life of 269Hs corresponding to one standard deviation (the interval is ~68.3% likely to contain the actual value) is 16 ± 6 seconds, whereas that of 270Hs is 9 ± 4 seconds. It is also possible that 277mHs is more stable than both of these, with its half-life likely being 110 ± 70 seconds, but only one event of decay of this isotope has been registered as of 2016.[1][2].
