Between 1.00 & 1.5 grams would be the normal amount

the amount of elements may vary from person to person however based on analysis, averages and trends the composition of human body is like it mainly contains about 60% of oxygen by mass, 23% of carbon by mass, 10% hydrogen,2.5% nitrogen and then near by 1.4-1.5% of calcium

Thus if a man is weighing 60kg then the approximate or expected amount of calcium will be :

1.4% X 60kg = 0.84 kg

We may say that it will have 800-900 grams of calcium in its body.

Does data from mass spectrometry indicate that modern scientists have made modifications to Dalton''s model? Justify.
Gelneren [198K]
John Dalton was a scientist who proposed that all matter consists of atoms. At this stage, no one had yet discovered neutrons and the nucleus. As a result, Dalton's model consisted of a single atom i.e. the atom was the smallest object. 
A mass spectrometer is an instrument that is able to see what is inside an atom. Scientists have been able to prove that the item is not the smallest object in the world. Atoms are made up of smaller objects called protons, neutrons and electrons. 
We can, therefore, safely conclude that data  from mass spectrometry has helped modern scientists to make modifications to Dalton's model. <span>

The temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol. Without knowing more about the chemistry of alcohol, w
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Fewer hydrogen bonds form between alcohol molecules. As a result, less heat is needed for alcohol molecules to break away from solution and enter the air.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is a kind of intermolecular interaction that occurs when hydrogen is bonded to a highly electronegative atom.

Both water and alcohols exhibit hydrogen bonding. However, alcohols exhibit fewer hydrogen bonds than water.

As a result of this, the temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol because hydrogen bonds hold water molecules more closely than alcohol molecules are held.
