<h3>
Answer: Si (choice D)</h3>
This is the element Silicon.
=========================================================
Explanation:
First convert each percentage to its decimal form.
For example, 92.2297% converts to 0.922297 after moving the decimal point two spots to the left.
After doing that, multiply those decimal values with their respective atomic mass unit (amu) values.
- 27.9769 * 0.922297 = 25.8030109393
- 28.9765 * 0.046832 = 1.357027448
- 29.9738 * 0.030872 = 0.9253511536
Then we add up the results
25.8030109393 + 1.357027448 + 0.9253511536 = 28.0853895409
That rounds to about 28.085
Then look at the periodic table to see the atomic mass of Cobalt (Co), Aluminum (Al), Nickel (Ni) and Silicon (Si). The mass values listed in the periodic table are weighted averages of all the isotopes. The units for the mass are still in amu.
- Cobalt = 58.933
- Aluminum = 26.982
- Nickel = 58.693
- Silicon = 28.085
We have a match with silicon, showing that <u>choice D</u> is the final answer.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
hope the picture helps you to understand:)
Hey,
A mole is a unit of measure that helps us compare particles of any given substance and its mass. ... The molar mass, also known as molecular weight, is the sum of the total mass in grams of all the atoms that make up a mole of a particular molecule. The unit used to measure is grams per mole.
The mass number is the summation of number of proton and neutron present in a nucleus of an atom. For the neutral atom the number of positive charge (number of proton) must be equal to the number of electrons. The number of electrons present in an atom is the atomic number of the atom. The standard way to express the mass number (a) and atomic number (m) of a atom (say X) is
. Now for silicon number of electron or atomic number is 14. And the mass number (a) given 29. Thus the expression nucleus of silicon will be
