What is the average mass of a single chlorine atom in grams
Archy [21]
<span>If you look at the chlorine box, with the symbol Cl, you see the atomic mass is equal to 35.453 atomic mass units. This is the weighted average mass of chlorine, including its isotopes, as found in nature. This also means that one mole of chlorine atoms has a mass of 35.453 grams.</span>

The atomic mass of magnesium is the weighted average of the atomic masses of
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

2. All the naturally occurring isotopes of Mg.

Explanation:

You want to know the atomic mass of the magnesium you use in the lab. That’s “natural” magnesium. So, you must use the weighted average of all the naturally occurring isotopes in natural Mg.

1. and 3. are <em>wrong</em>. You won’t get the correct mass for natural Mg if you use only the artificial isotopes for your calculation.

4. is <em>wrong</em>. You must use all the naturally occurring isotopes. The two most abundant isotopes of Mg account for only 90 % of the atoms. If you ignore the other 10 %, your calculation will be wrong.

What process produces the sediments that ultimately lead to soil formation
Vikentia [17]
The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.

How many moles of propane gas would be present in 11 grams<br> of the gas at standard conditions?
Akimi4 [234]
The molar mass is usually referred to with
M
, while the mass is referred to as
m
. The amount of substance is
n
. This gives you the following relationship:
=
M
=
m
n

Since you have given (C3H8)=11 g
m
(
C
3
H
8
)
=
11

g
and you already looked up (C3H8)=44.1 gmol−1
M
(
C
3
H
8
)
=
44.1

g
m
o
l
−
1
, you can use this formula to determine (C3H8)
n
(
C
3
H
8
)
.

In this question it is quite hard to explain the use of significant figures. Those are used to imply a certain inaccuracy. Not enough information is given by the question, as of how accurate the measurement is. It is a mere exercise of converting one property into another. Here you should not worry about it.
