The mass of a proton is approximately equal to

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer is option 1. The mass of a proton is approximately equal to 1 atomic mass unit. They almost have the same mass with a neutron while the electron is about 2000 times lighter than the two. The three mentioned particles are the subatomic particles found in an atom.

How is calculating a weighted average

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The Key difference between average vs weighted average is that simple average is nothing but simply adding up all the observation values and dividing the same by the total number of observations to calculate the average whereas weighted average is an average where each observation value will have a frequency assigned.

Caffeine, a stimulant found in coffee, tea, and certain soft drinks, contains C, H, O, and N. Combustion of 1.000 mg of caffeine

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

194 g/mol

Explanation:

1) Content of C:

All the C atoms in the 1.000 mg of caffeine will be found in the 1.813 mg of CO₂.

Mass of C in 1.813 mg of CO₂

Since the atomic mass of C is 12.01 g/mol and the molar of of CO₂ is 44.01, there are 12 mg of C in 44 mg of CO₂ and you can set the proporton:

12.01 mg C / 44.01 mg CO₂ = x / 1.813 g CO₂

⇒ x = 1.813 × 12.01 / 44.01 g of C = 0.49475 mg of C

Number of moles of C

number of moles = mass in g / atomic mass = 0.49475×10⁻³ g / 12.01 g/mol = 4.1195×10⁻⁵ moles = 0.041195 milimol

2) Content of H

All the H atoms in the 1.000 mg of caffeine will be found in the 0.4639 mg of H₂O

Mass of H in 0.4639 mg of H₂O

Since the atomic mass of H is 1.008 g/mol and the molar of of H₂O is 18.015 g/mol, there are 2×1.008 mg of H in 18.015 mg of H₂O and you can set the proporton:

2×1.008 mg H / 18.015 mg H₂O = x / 0.4639 mg H₂O

⇒ x = 0.4639 mg H₂O × 2 × 1.008 mg H / 18.015 mg H₂O = 0.051913 mg H

Number of moles of H

number of moles = mass in g / atomic mass = 0.051913 ×10⁻³ g / 1.008 g/mol = 5.1501× 10⁻⁵ moles = 0.051501 milimol

3) Content of N

All the N atoms in the 1.000 mg of caffeine will be found in the 0.2885 mg of N₂

Mass of N in 0.2885 mg of N₂ is 0.2885 mg

Number of moles of N

number of moles = mass in g / atomic mass = 0.2885 ×10⁻³ g / 14.007 g/mol = 2.0597× 10⁻⁵ moles = 0.020597 milimol

4) Content of O

The mass of O is calculated by difference:

Mass of O = mass of sample - mass of C - mass of H - mass of N

Mass of O = 1.000 mg - 0.49475 mg C - 0.051913 mg H - 0.2885 mg N

Mass of O = 0.1648 mg

Moles of O = 0.1648 × 10 ⁻³ g / 15.999 g/mol = 1.0303×10⁻⁵ mol = 0.01030 milimol

5) Ratios

Divide every number of mililmoles by the smallest number of milimoles:

C: 0.041195 / 0.01030 = 4
H: 0.051501 / 0.01030 = 5
N: 0.020597 / 0.01030 = 2

O: 0.01030 / 0.01030 = 1

C: 4
H: 5
N: 2
O: 1

6) Empirical formula:

C₄H₅N₂O₁

7) Calculate the approximate mass of the empirical formula:

4 × 12 + 5 × 1 + 2 × 14 + 1 × 16 = 97 g/mol

So, since that number is not between 150 and 200 g/mol, multiply by 2: 97 × 2 = 194, which is between 150 and 200.

Thus, the estimate is 194 g/mol
