Answer:

There is no answer that meets the final value of energy.

Maybe C. And you mistakenly put the 3 at the end.

Explanation:

Albert Einstein's equation of spatial relativity is the well-known E = mc2, which means that the energy of a body at rest (E) is equal to its mass (m) multiplied by the speed of light (c) at square. Einstein argued that the mass of a body is a measure of its energy content.

Now, if we know the mass of an atom, it is possible to find its energy.

  • m = (5.0446 * 10) ∧-29 kg
  • c = (3.00 * 10) ∧8 m / s
  • E = 5.0446 * 10∧-29 kg * ((3.00x10∧8 m / s) ∧2)

E = 4.54 x10∧-12 k * m∧2 * s∧2

- Knowing that kg * m∧2 * s∧2 is the same as Joules then:

<u>E = 4.54 x10∧-12 J</u>

Answer:

<em>Option C: 4.54 x </em>10^{11}<em> KJ/mol of nuclei</em>

<em>Note: </em>Here in this question option C is not correctly put. It is 4.54 x10^{11} rather than 4.54 x 10^{-123}.

Explanation:

If mass defect is known, then nuclear binding energy can easily be calculated, here's how:

First step is to convert that mass defect into kg.

Mass defect = 5.0446 amu

Mass defect = 5.0466 x 1.6606 x 10^{-27}

Because 1 amu = 1.6606 x 10^{-27} Kg.

<em>Mass defect = 8.383 x </em>10^{-27}<em> kg.</em>

Now, we need to find out it's energy equivalent by using following equation:

Using the equation E = mc²:

where c= 3.00 x 10^{8} m/s²

E = (8.383 x 10^{-27}) x (3.00 x 10^{8})²

E = 7.54 x 10^{-10} J  this energy is in Joules but nuclear binding energy is usually expressed in KJ/mol of nuclei. Let's convert it:

(7.54 x 10^{-10} Joule/nucleus)x(1 kJ/1000 Joule)x(6.022 x 10^{23} nuclei/mol) =  

<em>4.54 x </em>10^{11}<em> kJ/mol of nuclei .</em>

E = <em>4.54 x </em>10^{11}<em> kJ/mol of nuclei .</em> So, this is the nuclear binding energy of that atom, which is option  C.

<em>Note:</em> Here in this question option C is not correctly put. It is 4.54 x10^{11} rather than 4.54 x 10^{-123}

cricket20 [7]

Hey there!:

Given the reaction:

2 C2H2 + 5 O2 → 4 CO2 + 2 H2O

5 moles O2 ------------- 4 moles CO2

3.00 moles O2 ----------  ( moles of CO2 ?? )

moles of CO2 = 3.00 * 4 / 5

moles of CO2 =  12 / 5

moles of CO2 = 2.4 moles

So, molar  mass CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Therefore:

1 mole CO2 -------------- 44.01 g

2.4 moles CO2 ---------- ( mass of CO2 )

mass of CO2 = 2.4 * 44.01 / 1

mass of CO2 = 106 g

Answer A


Hope that helps!
