Answer:

810 pm

Explanation:

Step 1: Given and required data

  • Velocity of the atom (v): 490 m/s
  • Mass of a hydrogen atom (m): 1.67 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
  • Planck's constant (h): 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Step 2: Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the hydrogen atom

We will use de Broglie's equation.

λ = h / m × v

λ = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s / 1.67 × 10⁻²⁷ kg × 490 m/s = 8.10 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

Step 3: Convert 8.10 × 10⁻¹⁰ m to picometers

We will use the conversion factor 1 m = 10¹² pm.

8.10 × 10⁻¹⁰ m × 10¹² pm/1 m = 810 pm

If 4.9 kg of CO2 are produced during a combustion reaction, how many molecules of CO2 would be produced?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

6.7 x 10²⁶molecules

Explanation:

Given parameters

Mass of CO₂  = 4.9kg  = 4900g

Unknown:

Number of molecules  = ?

Solution:

To find the number of molecules, we need to find the number of moles first.

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

          Molar mass of CO₂  = 12 + 2(16)  = 44g/mol

   Number of moles  = \frac{4900}{44}  = 111.36mole

A mole of substance is the quantity of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

       1 mole  = 6.02 x 10²³molecules

     111.36 moles  =   111.36 x 6.02 x 10²³molecules   = 6.7 x 10²⁶molecules
