How does the average atomic mass of an element differ from the mass of an individual atom of the same element?

Chemistry

frez [133]3 years ago

In periodic tables, the relative atomic mass is usually not a whole number, even though the mass of both protons and neutrons is 1. This is due to isotopes, which are atoms of the same element, but they have different amounts of neutrons in their nuclei. So the relative mass of an individual atom is always a whole number, and the relative atomic mass is an average of all of the isotopes of the element.

Suppose that 33.3 J of heat is added to an ideal gas. The gas expands at a constant pressure of 1.45 104 Pa while changing its v
levacccp [35]

Answer:

ΔU = 25.8 J

Explanation:

The gas absorbs 33.3 J of heat, that is, Q = 33.3 J.

The work (W) of expansion can be calculated using the following expression:

W = -P. ΔV

where,

P is the external pressure

ΔV is the change in volume

W = -1.45 × 10⁴ N . m⁻² × (8.40 × 10⁻⁴ m³ - 3.24 × 10⁻⁴ m³) = -7.48 J

The change in the internal energy (ΔU) is:

ΔU = Q + W

ΔU =  33.3 J + (-7.48 J) = 25.8 J

What is the mass of 0.513 mol Al2O3? Give your answer to the correct number of significant figures. (Molar mass of Al2O3 = 102.0
prisoha [69]
.513mol x (102g/1mol)

Essentially, this is .513 x 102
Which equals: 52.326
But because you can only have 3 significant figures, your answer is:
52.3 grams

I hope this Helps!

<span>Solubility product constant (Ksp) is </span>applied to the saturated ionic solutions<span> which are in equilibrium with its solid form. The solid is partially dissociated into its ions.</span><span>

For the BaF, the dissociation as follows;

2 NaCL + CaO = CaCL2 + Na2O
Naily [24]

222 grams of calcium chloride is produced.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The mole concept and the chemical equation are very much closely related with each other. In the chemical reaction, the compounds or elements in both sides are balanced according to the number of atoms of each side of the reaction. So from there we can easily find the amount of reactant reacts to produce desired product.

Here we can see that 2 moles of sodium chloride produces 1 mole of calcium chloride.

So, 4 moles of sodium chloride will produce 2 moles of calcium chloride.

Now, atomic weight of calcium =40.

Atomic weight of chlorine =35.5.

So,the molecular weight of calcium chloride = 40+ 35.5\times2

=111.

It means, 1 mole of calcium chloride weighs 111 grams.

So 2 moles of calcium chloride weighs 111\times2 grams = 222 grams.

1. How many moles of oxygen gas are needed to form 21.8 liters of water vapor?
BaLLatris [955]

0.781 moles

Explanation:

We begin by balancing the chemical equation;

O₂ (g) + 2H₂ (g) → 2H₂O (g)

21.8 Liters = 21.8 Kgs

To find how many moles are in 28.1 Kg H₂O;

Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol

28.1/18

= 1.56 moles

The mole ratio between water vapor and oxygen is;

1 : 2

x : 1.56

2x = 1.56

x = 1.56 / 2

x =  0.781

0.781 moles
