Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the number of atoms in a formula, the weight of a sample, its atomic mass from the periodic table and a constant known as Avogadro’s number are needed.

Step 1: Find the Molar Mass of the Formula

Find a periodic table of elements to find the molar mass of your sample. If your sample is made of one element, like copper, locate the atomic mass on the periodic table. Atomic mass is usually listed below the symbol for that element.

The atomic mass of carbon and bromine is 63.55 atomic mass units. This formula mass is numerically equal to the molar mass in grams/mole, and this means copper is 63.55 grams/mole.

Whether you use an individual element like copper or a molecule, the procedure for finding the atoms in a formula remains the same.

Find the molar mass of carbon and bromine on the periodic table: 63.55 grams/mole.

Understanding the Mole: The mole (often abbreviated as mol) listed above is a unit of measurement. If you sold eggs, you would talk about them in the dozens, not one by one.

A mole is a certain amount, too. If chemists want to speak about incredibly small atoms and molecules, an amount far greater than a dozen is needed. A mole is Avogadro’s number of items: 6.022 × 1023.

1 mole of C atoms = 6.022 × 1023 C atoms

1 mole of Br atoms = 6.022 × 1023 S atoms

1 mole of CBrmolecules = 6.022 × 1023 CBr molecules

1 mole of pennies = 6.022 × 1023 pennies

To give an idea of how large this number is, 1 mole of pennies would be enough money to pay all the expenses of each country on earth for about the next billion years.

Step 2: Find the Number of Moles

The example is 35 grams of C and . Change that into moles using the molar mass you found in Step 1. Chemists use ratios for this calculation.

Start with what you know and add in the molar mass ratio, so the units will cancel:

35g of C× 1 mol C/ 12 g C = 2.92mol of C

Step 3: Convert Moles to Atoms Using Avogadro’s Number

Once the amount of moles is known, the number of atoms in the formula may be calculated using Avogadro’s number. Again, use the ratio format.

Notice the number of moles is used from Step 2 to start the calculation from moles to atoms:

2.92 mol of C× 6.022 x 1023 atoms / 1 mol of C = 3.13 x 1023 molecules

To answer your example question, there are 3.13 × 1023 atoms in 32.80 grams of carbon.

Steps 2 and 3 can be combined. Set it up like the following:

32.80 g of C × 1 mol Cu / 159.17 g C × 6.022 x 1023 atoms / 1 mol of C = 3.13 x 1023 atoms in 32.80 grams of carbon

Several online sites have a number of atoms calculator. One is the Omni Calculator and is listed in the Resources section, but you’ll still need to know how to calculate molar mass (Step 1).

Historical Note: Why Is It Called Avogadro's Number?

Avogadro’s number is named after Amedeo Avogadro (1776-1856), an Italian scientist that hypothesized that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure will have the same number of particles.

Avogadro did not propose the constant, 6.022 ×1023, but because of his contributions to science, the constant was named after him. Incidentally, Avogadro first introduced his gas theory in 1811, and it was ignored for 50 years.

We know that Weighted atomic mass of Element is Calculated based upon their existence of isotopes and the Relative abundance of these isotopes.

Given that the Element X is Composed of :

Isotope                       Relative abundance                   Atomic Mass

⁵⁵X                                        70%                                               55

⁵⁶X                                        20%                                               56

⁵⁷X                                        10%                                                57

Weighted Atomic Mass of Element X :

= (0.70)(55) + (0.20)(56) + (0.10)(57)

= 38.50 + 11.2 + 5.70

= 55.4

So, the Weighted Atomic Mass of Element X is 55.4

Bond [772]

Answer:

Explanation:

The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which its melt. The state of a substance is dependent on it's melting temperature. Generally, melting point above 25 °C is a solid.

This means phenol is a solid

Duodecane has melting point below 25 °C hence it is either a liquid or gas. However its boiling point of 216 °C means it would require higher temperature to boil it. Since 25 °C is less than 216 °C it means that it would remain in the liquid state.

Methane has melting point below 25 °C hence it is either a liquid or gas. However its boiling point of -164 °C means it boils easily even at very low temperatures. Since 25 °C is greater than -164 °C it means that it would exist in the gaseous state

Molecules of carbon dioxide are linear. What type of force exists between<br>these molecules?​
Vadim26 [7]

London Dispersion forces

Explanation:

London dispersion forces exists between the molecules of CO₂. These are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules(symmetrical molecules).

  • This attraction sometimes makes non-polar molecules polar.
  • This is because of the uneven charge distribution caused by the constant motion of its electrons.
  • A temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole induces the neighboring molecules to become distorted and forms dipoles as well.
  • The forces are the weakest of all electrical forces.
