First calculate for the molar mass of the given formula unit, CaCO₃. This can be done by adding up the product when the number of atom is multiplied to its individual molar mass as shown below.
molar mass of CaCO₃ = (1 mol Ca)(40 g Ca/mol Ca) + (1 mol C)(12 g of C/1 mol of C) + (3 mols of O)(16 g O/1 mol O) = 100 g/mol of CaCO₃
Then, divide the given amount of substance by the calculated molar mass.
number of moles = (20 g)(1 mol of CaCO₃/100 g)
number of moles = 0.2 moles of CaCO₃
<em>Answer: 0.2 moles</em>
Answer: i think its A diatomic compound..
Explanation: hope i helped! sorry if im wrong!
Answer:
The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.
Explanation:
The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.
Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.
AMU:
Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.
This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale
relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu
relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu
relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu
relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu
