The atomic mass given on the periodic table is the mass of one mole of the element (relative to the mass of 1/12 of carbon 12.) There are 6.022 x10^23 molecules of any atoms in a mole. Therefore when it asks for the mass of 6.02 x 10^23 atoms it's asking what is the mass of one mole of Calcium.

The answer, therefore, is 40.08 as it states the atomic mass of calcium is 40.08

It should be 40.08 grams...because the atomic mass is equivalent to 1 mole of atoms of an element in grams, and 6.023 × 10^23 atoms of calcium is the same as 1 mole of calcium.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Explanation:

The principle applied is the Markovnikoff's rule which states that when hydrogen chloride adds to a double bond, the hydrogen atoms join to the carbon that already has the most hydrogen atoms bonded to it. The rule wa postulated by a russian chemist known as Vladimir Markovnikoff.

In the markovnikoff's rule, there are sveral conditions that must be met, one of them is that no free radicals must be involved.

The reaction and the structure of the product is as shown in the attachment.
