What is the atomic mass of an element?

1 answer:

5 0

Atomic mass is the mass of an atom, particle, or molecule. The atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons in the atom. For example, Oxygen has 8 protons (as seen by the atomic number) and 8 neutrons which gives oxygen an atomic mass of 16.

In a laboratory, it is often convenient to make measurements in centimeters and grams, but SI units are needed for calculations.

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

(a) 0.92 cm= 0.092 m.

(b) 141.64 g=0.14164 kg.

(d) 63.6 g/cm³= 63600 kg/m³

Explanation:

The International System of Units, abbreviated S.I., also called the International System of Measurements is a system of measurements in which its units are based on fundamental physical phenomena. The units of the S.I. They are the international reference for the indications of all measuring instruments.

The International System of Units (SI) arose from the need to unify and give coherence to a great variety of unit subsystems.

The International System of Units consists of seven basic units, also called fundamental units, which define the corresponding fundamental physical quantities and which allow any physical quantity to be expressed in terms or as a combination of them. The fundamental physical quantities are complemented by two more physical quantities, called supplementary ones.

By combining the basic units, the other units are obtained, called units derived from the International System, and which allow defining any physical quantity.

(a) The SI unit of length is the meter. Being 1 cm = 0.01 m, then 0.92 cm= 0.092 m.

(b) The SI unit of mass is kg. Being 1 g = 0.001 kg, then 141.64 g=0.14164 kg.

(d) Being 1 g/cm³= 1000 kg/m³, then 63.6 g/cm³= 63600 kg/m³
