What is the difference between an atom and an element?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Travka [436]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A particular atom will have the same number of protons and electrons and most atoms have at least as many neutrons as protons. An element is a substance that is made entirely from one type of atom

Explanation:

so In simple terms an atom contains Protons and Electrons and can be found in an Element, but an element comprises of atoms which come together to form up that particular Element

Vinegar contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen with percent masses of 40.01% C, 6.70% H, and 53.29% O, respectively. Determine th
kobusy [5.1K]

The empirical formula is = C2H4O2

Molecular formula=C2H4O2

<h3>Calculation of Molecular formula and empirical formula:-</h3>

Vinegar has three elements:

oxygen = 53.29%,

hydrogen = 6.70%,

and carbon = 40.01%.

We can create an equation for the total mass of vinegar with 'a' carbon atom,' b' hydrogen atom, and 'c' oxygen atoms using the molar masses of C, H, and O.

12*a + 1*b + 16*c = 60

We also know that C makes up 24 g/mol, or 40.01 percent, of the overall mass of 60 g/mol.

The formula contains two C atoms because each C atom has a molecular mass of 12 g/mol. You may determine that the formula contains 4 H and 2 O atoms by using the same reasoning for H and O.

The empirical formula is = C2H4O2

Molecular formula= (C2H4O2)n

(4 x 12 + 1 x 4 + 16 x 2)n = 60

(84)n = 60

n=60/84

n=0.71=1

Molecular formula=C2H4O2
