Atomic mass deals with the number of protons and neutrons added together, atomic number deals with protons only, though isotopes can be explained like this, say you had a hydrogen atom it's one proton and one electron if you add a neutron to it, the hydrogen becomes Deuterium which is a isotope of hydrogen it's the same atom just a neutron added to it for a different atomic mass if only slightly changed

Atomic mass is the sum of proton and neutrons

Atomic number is just number of protons

Isotopes of elements have same atomic number but different atomic mass due to difference in number of nuetrons

A 1.85 kg textbook is sitting on a bookshelf 2.23 m above the floor. How much potential energy does it have?

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40.4299 \ Joules}}$

Explanation:

Potential energy is energy due to position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

$PE= m \times g \times h$

The mass of the textbook is 1.85 kilograms. Assuming this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second. The height is 2.23 meters.

m= 1.85 kg
g= 9.8 m/s²
h= 2.23 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

$PE = 1.85 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 2.23 \ m$

Multiply the first 2 numbers together.

$PE=18.13 \ kg*m/s^2 *2.23 \ m$

Multiply again.

$PE= 40.4299 \ kg*m^2/s^2$

1 kilogram square meter per square second (1 kg*m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joules (J)
Our answer of 40.4299 kg*m²/s² is equal to 40.4299 J

$PE= 40.4299 \ J$

The textbook has <u>40.4299 Joules of potential energy.</u>

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

topjm [15]

Answer:

moles Fe₂O₃ = 0.938 mole

Explanation:

Convert given data to moles, solve in terms of moles by reaction ratios in balanced equation. After obtaining answer in moles, convert to needed dimension. In this case, no conversions are needed.

4Fe + 3O₂ => 2Fe₂O₃

105g/56g·mol⁻¹

= 1.875 mol Fe => => => => => => 2/4(1.875 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.938 mol Fe₂O₃
