1 Atomic mass unit is the mass of an atom or it caliberates mass on atomic scale. It is also expressed in dalton denoted by Da whereas Atomic mass unit is denoted by amu.

1 amu can be expressed in grams as follows:

1 amu = 1.6 * 10^-2^4 g

Mass of Te = 127.6 amu

For converting in grams,

M = (127.6 ) * 1.6 * 10^-2^4 g

M = 204.16 * 10^-2^4 g

Thus, mass of Te is 204.16 * 10^-2^4 g

The mass, in grams, of a single tellurium atom = 2,118. 10⁻²² grams

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Inside the atom consists of a nucleus containing 3 elementary particles, namely protons and neutrons, while electrons move around the nucleus.

Protons are positively charged (+1), electrons are negatively charged (-1). and neutrons are uncharged (neutral)

While the mass of 1 proton is equal to the mass of 1 neutron, equal to 1 amu and the electron has a mass smaller than both.

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

In determining the mass of an atom, as a standard is the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom whose mass is 12 amu

So the atomic mass obtained is the mass of the atom relative to the 12th carbon atom

An atomic mass unit = amu is a relative atomic mass of 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

The 'amu' unit has now been replaced with a unit of 'u' only

The hydrogen atom is the lightest atom whose mass is 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷kg (measured using a mass spectrometer) and simplified to 1 amu (atomic mass unit).

1 amu = 1,66.10⁻²⁴ grams

For example the C-12 carbon atomic mass is 12 amu, C-13 is 13 amu

Single tellurium atoms have = 127.60 amu

So that the mass is in grams:

mass = 127.60 amu x 1.66.10⁻²⁴

mass = 2,118. 10⁻²² grams

What happens to the temperatures when we have direct sunlight vs indirect sunlight?
lawyer [7]

Explanation:

When we have direct sunlight, the temperature is higher compared to indirect sunlight.

Direct sunlight is usually overhead whereas indirect sunlight is at an angle to the surface.

  • Direct sunlight impacts the surface with more energy concentrated on a smaller surface area.
  • This warms the surface more.
  • Indirect sunlight is diffuse and spreads over a wider area.
  • This leads to a reduction in temperature.

If 5.100 g of c6h6 is burned and the heat produced from the burning is added to 5691 g of water at 21 °c, what is the final temp
emmasim [6.3K]
  <span>C6H12 = 6x12 + 6x1 = 78. 
The equation indicates that 2x78 = 156g benzene will produce 6542kJ. 
Using proportions you can then calculate that 
x/6542kJ = 7.9g / 156g 
x = 331.3kJ = 331300J. 

heat = mass x ΔT x 4.18J/g° 
ΔT = 331300J / (5691g x 4.18J/g°) = 13.9° 

final temp = 21 + 14° = 35°C</span>
