The Earth, Mars or Jupiter should be denser than the Sun. Density is defined by mass and volume — components of object or matter. Although the sun is huge, it’s component is made up of mostly gas (hydrogen and helium). While Earth, though smaller than the Sun, contains heavier elements such as iron, sulfur, rocks, sediments, granite, basalt and water. Mars (composed of rocks and nutrients) and Jupiter (contains gases and compounds) as well are denser when compared to the Sun’s density. Referencing to our basic understanding of matter: solid and liquid should be heavier than gas.
Answer:
5.41 x 10²² g
Explanation:
Data Given:
no. of moles of sodium = 2.35 x 10²¹ moles
mass of sodium = ?
Solution:
Formula used
no. of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
To find mass rearrange the above equation:
mass in grams = no. of moles x molar mass. . . . . . (1)
- molar mass of Sodium (Na) = 23 g/mol
Put values in equation 1
mass in grams = 2.35 x 10²¹ moles x 23 g/mol
mass in grams = 5.41 x 10²² g
So,
mass of Sodium (Na) = 5.41 x 10²² g
Find the mass of one atom by:
8.33 x 10^{-16} / 2.5 x 10^{6} = 3.32 x 10^{-22} g
Convert it into amu.
1 g = 6.022 x 10^{23} amu
so, 3.32 x 10^{-22} x 6.022 x 10^{23} = 200.6 amu
Now look at the periodic table and search for 200.6 amu element.
The element is Mercury (Hg)
