Answer:There is a difference between the meanings of the chemistry terms atomic mass and mass number. One is the average weight of an element and the other is the total number of nucleons in the atom's nucleus. ... The mass number is a count of the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus

They both mean the same thing just two different words for it but it refers to the big number and weight of an atom in atomic masa units

Which is the most reactive metal
Lena [83]

The most reactive metal on the periodic table is Francium, However, Francium is an artificial element and only minimal quantities have been produced, so for all practical purposes, the most reactive metal available is Cesium, in the alkali metal family.


ANSWER In theory, Francium, in practice the Cesium

A pycnometer is a precisely weighted vessel that is used for highly accurate density determinations. Suppose that a pycnometer h
dexar [7]

Answer:

5.758  is the density of the metal ingot in grams per cubic centimeter.

Explanation:

1) Mass of pycnometer = M = 27.60 g

Mass of pycnometer with water ,m= 45.65 g

Density of water at 20 °C = d =998.2 kg/m^3

1 kg = 1000 g

1 m^3=10^6 cm^3

998.2 kg/m^3=\frac{998.2 \times 1000 g}{10^6 cm^3}=0.9982 g/cm^3

Mass of water ,m'= m - M = 45.65 g -  27.60 g =18.05 g

Volume of pycnometer = Volume of water present in it = V

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

V=\frac{m'}{d}=\frac{18.05 g}{0.9982 g/cm^3}=18.08 cm^3

2) Mass of metal , water and pycnometer = 56.83 g

Mass of metal,M' =  9.5 g

Mass of water when metal and water are together ,m''= 56.83 g - M'- M

56.83 g - 9.5 g - 27.60 g = 19.7 g

Volume of water when metal and water are together = v

v=\frac{m''}{d}=\frac{19.7 g}{0.9982 g/cm^3}=19.73 cm^3

Density of metal = d'

Volume of metal = v' =\frac{M'}{d'}

Difference in volume will give volume of metal ingot.

v' = v - V

v'=19.73 cm^3-18.08 cm^3=

v'=1.65 cm^3

Since volume cannot be in negative .

Density of the metal =d'

=d'=\frac{M'}{v'}=\frac{9.5 g}{1.65 cm^3}=5.758 g/cm^3

Empirical formula of a compound composed of 32.1 g potassium (k) and 6.57 g oxygen (o)?
tester [92]

The empirical formula is K₂O.

The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio</em> of atoms in a compound.

The <em>ratio of atom</em>s is the same as the <em>ratio of moles</em>.

So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of K to O.

Step 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element </em>

Moles of K = 32.1 g K × (1 mol K/(39.10 g K =) = 0.8210 mol K

Moles of O = 6.57 g O × (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 0.4106 mol 0

Step 2. Calculate the <em>molar ratio of each elemen</em>t

Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer

K:O = 0.8210:0.4106 = 1.999:1 ≈ 2:1

Step 3: Write the <em>empirical formula </em>

EF = K₂O
