The atomic mass of calcium is 40.08. What is the mass of 6.02 × 1023 atoms of calcium?

2 answers:

5 0

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!

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 578 mL and a pressure of 124.1 kPa. What volume would the gas occupy at 80.2 kPa if the

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

V2 = 894.4mL

Explanation:

P1= 124.1, V1= 578mL, P2 = 80.2kPa, V2= ?

Applying Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

Substitute and simplify

124.1*578=80.2*V2

V2= 894.4mL

An ethylene gas torch requires 300 L of gas at 0.8 atm. What will be the pressure of the gas if ethylene is supplied by a 200.0

Vlad [161]

Answer:

1.2 atm

Explanation:

Given data

Volume of the gas in the tank (V₁): 200.0 L

Pressure of ethylene gas in the tank (P₁): ?

Volume of the gas in the torch (V₂): 300 L

Pressure of the gas in the torch (P₂): 0.8 atm

If we consider ethylene gas to be an ideal gas, we can find the pressure of ethylene gas in the tank using Boyle's law.

$P_1 \times V_1 = P_2 \times V_2\\P_1 = \frac{P_2 \times V_2}{V_1} = \frac{0.8atm \times 300L}{200.0L} = 1.2 atm$
