Why atomic mass is an average vàlue​

Chemistry
2 answers:
elena-s [515]3 years ago

Answer:

There are different isotopes for different elements

Explanation:

The mass of each of the isotopes of an element are added with their percentage each then they are divided by 100

Example boron 11 is 80 % boron 10 is 20%

Total mass of boron 10 is 20*10

Total mass of boron 11 is 80*11

Atomic mass is (20*10)+(80*11)/100

Which is 10.8 and it is rounded off as 11 in the periodic table

Answer:

The atomic mass is the average number of protons and neutrons for all natural isotopes of an element. It is a decimal number.

Explanation:

Atomic Mass and Mass Number Example :

Hydrogen has three natural isotopes: 1H, 2H, and 3H. Each isotope has a different mass number.

1H has 1 proton. Its mass number is 1. 2H has 1 proton and 1 neutron. Its mass number is 2. 3H has 1 proton and 2 neutrons. Its mass number is 3. 99.98% of all hydrogen is 1H 0.018% of all hydrogen is 2H 0.002% of all hydrogen is 3H Together, they give a value of atomic mass of hydrogen equal to 1.0079 g/mol.

How can i prove that nascent oxygen more reactive than normal oxygen ?
laila [671]
Nascent oxygen has much higher reactivity than the oxygen bubbled through the reaction mixture. It doesn't stay nascent for long (you are right about it being converted quick to just O2), which is why it has to be generated in situ

The substances below are listed by increasing specific heat capacity value. Starting at 30.0 °C, they each absorb 100 kJ of ther
timama [110]

Answer:

Silver, 0.239 J/(g °C)

Explanation:

  • The heat change is related to specific heat as given by the formula;

Heat change = mass of substance × specific heat × change in temperature

  • Therefore; considering same amount of substance or equal masses and have the same initial temperature.
  • The change in temperature will be inversely proportional to the specific heat.
  • Therefore; the higher the specific heat lower the temperature change.
  • Hence,  the change in temperature will be highest for the substance with the lowest specific heat.

Therefore; the one that will increase in temperature the most is Silver

How many moles are in 4177g of aluminum chloride
Luden [163]
The mole<span> is the </span>unit of measurement<span> in the </span>International System of Units<span> (SI) for </span>amount of substance<span>. It is defined as the </span>amount<span> of a </span>chemical substance<span> that contains as many representative particles, e.g., </span>atoms<span>, </span>molecules<span>, </span>ions<span>, </span>electrons<span>, or </span>photons<span>, as there are atoms in 12 </span>grams<span> of </span>carbon-12<span> (</span>12<span>C), the </span>isotope<span> of </span>carbon<span> with </span>relative atomic mass<span> 12 by definition. 
so to solve the moles, divide the mass with molar mass

moles = 4177 g / </span><span>133.34 g/mol

Lewis structure for 2O2
Mrrafil [7]

the big number describes the number ratio in a chemical equation

so for example,

2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O means

2 moles of hydrogen reacts with one mole of oxygen to form 2 moles of water

and as you know, the small (subscript) number determines the number of atoms of that element in one molecule of a compound

so I believe that drawing a normal lewis structure ( O=O ) should be correct
