Is atomic weight a whole number or not a whole number

Chemistry
1 answer:
steposvetlana [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Atomic mass of an element is not a whole number because It contains isotopes. For example, chlorine has two isotopes 1735Cl and 1737Cl with natural abundances in the approximate ratio of 3:1. Hence, the average atomic mass of chlorine is approximately 35.5 g/mol.

Hope this helps! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart if it did to help my account out!!

OleMash [197]

Answer:

the empirical (lowest raios) is

C2H4Cl    

Explanation:

A compound is known to consist solely of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. Through elemental analysis, it was determined that the compound is composed of 24.27% carbon.

What is the empirical formula of this compound?

the compound has ONLY C, H, and Cl

the % Cl  = 100% - 24.27% -4.03% = 71.7%

in 100 gm, there are 71.7 gm Cl, 24.27 gm C, and 4.03 gm H

the number of moles are Cl=71.7/70.91 =1.01= ~ 1

                                          C = 24.27/12.0 = 2.02 =~ 2

                                           H = 403/1.01 = 3.97 =~   4

so   the empirical (lowest raios) is

C2H4Cl
