Use the periodic table to calculate the molar mass of each compound below. Give your answer to the correct number of significant
agasfer [191]
From the periodic table you get the atomic masses of each element.

These are the values that I have in my periodic table (use those numbers of your periodic table if your teache gave you a specific one)

Na: 23 g/mol
O: 16 g/mol
H: 1 g/mol
C: 12 g/mol
Ca: 40 g/mol
S: 32 g/mol
Mg: 24 g/mol
P: 31 g/mol

Now I will do some examples and you do the others:

1) NaOH: 1 atom of Na * 23 g/mol + 1 atom of O * 16 g/mol + 1 atom of H * 1 g/mol

=> 1*23g/mol + 1*16g/mol + 1*1g/mol = 40 g/mol

2) H2O

=> 2 atoms of H * 1 g/mol + 1 atom of O * 16 g/mol = 2*1g/mol + 1*16g/mol = 18 g/mol

3) Glucose: C6H12O6

6*12 g/mol + 12 * 1g/mol + 6*16 g/mol = 72g/mol + 12g/mol + 96 g/mol = 180 g/mol

4) CaSO4:

1*40 g/mol + 1*32g/mol + 4*16g/mol = 136 g/mol

Now you only have to do the last one by your own.

Polonium-218 undergoes beta decay, converting a neutron into a proton. Then the daughter isotope undergoes another beta decay, a
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: ^{218}_{84}Po \rightarrow ^{218}_{85}At + ^{0}_{-1}e is the correct equation for beta decay.

Explanation:

When a beta particle, that is, ^{0}_{-1}e is emitted in a radioactive decay then it is known as beta decay.

Therefore, beta decay of Polonium-218 is as follows.

^{218}_{84}Po \rightarrow ^{218}_{85}At + ^{0}_{-1}e

Therefore, we can conclude that ^{218}_{84}Po \rightarrow ^{218}_{85}At + ^{0}_{-1}e is the correct equation for the given beta decay.
