- Dalton reported that seven pounds of Oxygen reacted with one pound of hydrogen to form water, but accurate modern experiment gives eight pounds to one.
- Lavoisier reported that water contains Oxygen 5.6 times more than hydrogen by weight. 
- Dalton assumed that water contains 1 atom of oxygen and 1 atom of hydrogen and concluded that the relative weight of O must be 5.6 times as large as the H atom.
- By determining the relative mass we will be able to determine for example that one element has twice the mass of a second element.

Answer:

Static electricity is a type of energy that is produced by friction.

Explanation:

Static electricity may be the result when there is an imbalance between the negative charges and the positive charges in the surroundings. They are non contact forces. They pull of push without actually touching the body. The charged particles interact by pulling or pushing the uncharged particles.

These charges are released when they come closer to some uncharged or other charged particles like the electrostatic charges. It is the charge build up in an area.

balandron [24]

Answer:

The molar mass of carbon

Explanation:

Before the mass (in grams) of two moles of carbon can be determined, <u>the molar mass of the element would be needed.</u>

<em>This is because the number of mole of an element is the ratio of its mass and the molar mass</em>. That is,

number of mole = mass/molar mass

Hence, the mass of elements can be obtained by making it the subject of the formular;

mass = number of mole x molar mass

<em>Therefore, the molar mass of carbon would be needed before the mass of 2 moles of the element can be determined.</em>
