Mass is not conserved in chemical reactions. Mass is therefore never conserved because a little of it turns into energy in every reaction
<span>Boron has a lot of different isotopes, most of which having a very short half life (ranging from 770 milliseconds for Boron-8 down to 150 yoctoseconds for boron-7). But the two isotopes Boron-10 and Boron-11 are stable with about 80.1% of the naturally occurring boron being boron-11 and the remaining 19.9% being boron-10. The weighted average weight of those 2 isotopes has the value of 10.81.
The reason they use the average mass of an element for it's atomic weight is because elements in nature are rarely single isotopes. The weighted average allows us to easily compare relative number of atoms of one element against relative numbers of atoms of another element assuming that the experimenters are getting isotope ratios close to their natural ratios.</span>
Answer:
<u><em>Structure:</em></u>
<em>Differences- </em>A polymer is a collection of a large number of molecules whereas a monomer is a single molecule.
A monomer is a single molecule, which has the ability to chemically bond with other monomers in a long chain. A polymer is a chain that is made when monomers bind with other monomers.
<em>Similarities-</em> They are both molecules
<u><em>Properties:</em></u>
<em> Differences- </em>Monomers have polyfunctionality, which is the capacity to form chemical bonds to at least two other monomer molecules. Polymers are chemically unreactive, solids at room temperature, malleable, tough, and are electrical insulators.
<em>Similarities- </em>They both makeup larger forms of matter.
<u><em>Intermolecular Forces</em></u>
<em>Differences: </em>Polymers are held together by covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds, and dispersion bonds. Monomers are <u><em>only</em></u> held together by hydrogen bonds.
<em>Similarities: </em>They can both be bonded together by hydrogen bonds.
<span>If I done the math correctly it is 3729J because you multiply 16.5 g by the 2260 J/g and get 3729 J</span>
