Answer:

The number of neutron in the Aluminium Isotope is :

B. 14

Explanation:

Isotopes : These are the atoms which have same atomic number but have different mass number.

<u>This image shows the average atomic mass of Al element because it is in decimals</u>.

Atomic mass = 26.98154

(Note : mass number of single isotope can never be in decimals)

It is the average of mass of different isotopes of Al

Major Isotopes of $_{13}^{26.98154}\textrm{Al}$ are :

$_{13}^{26}\textrm{Al}$ ......atomic mass = 26
$_{13}^{27}\textrm{Al}$ .......atomic mass = 27

mass of Al given in image(26.98) is nearly equal to mass of 2nd isotope(27)

mass of $_{13}^{26.98154}\textrm{Al}\ \approx 27$

Now calculate the neutron in $_{13}^{27}\textrm{Al}$

Number of neutron = mass number - atomic number

= 27 - 13

Number of neutron = 14

(Atomic mass is same as mass number)

A copper atom has a mass of 1 06 times 10^-22 g and a penny has a mass of 2.5 g. Use this information to answer the questions be

amm1812

Answer:

Mass of 1 mole of copper is 63.83 g.

0.03916 moles of copper atoms have a mass equal to the 2.5 grams of copper penny.

Explanation:

Mass of 1 copper atom,m = $1.06\times 10^{-22} g$

$1 mole = 6.022\times 10^{23} atoms$

Mass of 1 mole of copper :

= $6.022\times 10^{23} atoms\times 1.06\times 10^{-22} g=63.83 g$

Mass of 1 mole of copper = 63.83 g

Mass of copper penny = 2.5 g

Atomic mass of copper = 63.83 g/mol

Moles of copper in 2.5 g of copper penny:

$\frac{2.5 g}{63.83 g/mol}=0.03916 mol$

0.03916 moles of copper atoms have a mass equal to the 2.5 grams of copper penny.

1. 100 C

2. Point B to C is the ices heat capacity

3. During the points D to E the bonds of the water molecules build up enough kinetic energy to break their intermolecular bonds (not intra), which can lead to gas.

4. Between points D and E the energy is being released the energy required is equivalent along the line.

5. Between point E and D the water is converting to water (condensation)

6. Energy is being released 2260 j/g

7. Yes, but only under extreme volumetric pressures

8. D and E or B and C

9. Freezing (the water is also becoming less dense)

10. Melting or if water already, absorbtion of energy

11. released.
