1 pm = 10∧-10 cm
Therefore, 230 pm is equivalent to 2.3 ×10∧-8 cm.
Atom is in the shape of a sphere,
The volume of a sphere is given by 4/3πr³
Thus, volume of the atom = 4/3π( 2.3 ×10∧-8)³
                                          = 4/3 (3.142 ×12.167×10∧-24
                                           = 5.096 ×10∧-23 cm³
but 1m³= 1000000cm³
Therefore, the volume of the atom = 5.096 ×10∧-29 m³

Calculate the mass of water produced when 6.97 g of butane reacts with excess oxygen
andrew-mc [135]
The balanced reaction equation for the combustion of butane is as follows;
C₄H₁₀ + 13/2O₂ ---> 4CO₂ + 5H₂O 
the limiting reactant in this reaction is C₄H₁₀  This means that all the butane moles are consumed and amount of product formed depends on the amount of C₄H₁₀ used up.
stoichiometry of C₄H₁₀ to H₂O is 1:5
mass of butane used - 6.97 g
number of moles - 6.97 g / 58 g/mol = 0.12 mol
then the number of water moles produced - 0.12 mol x 5 = 0.6 mol
Therefore mass of water produced - 0.6 mol x 18 g/mol = 10.8 g
