JulsSmile [24]3 years ago
4 0
Since the given formula is . According to cross method formula, magnesium has +2 charge so, is multiplied by 2.
Thus, 1 molecule of magnesium phosphate will contain 2 atoms of phosphorus.
Therefore, three molecules of magnesium phosphate contains following number of atoms.
Mg = 9
P = 6
O = 24
Hence, we can conclude that there are 6 atoms of phosphorus in three molecules of magnesium phosphate, .

Discuss the significance of assigning an atomic mass of exactly 12 amu to the carbon-12 isotope.
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Cabon-12 has same average atomic weight and mass number.

Explanation:

carbon-12 has average atomic weight 12 amu and mass number of 12.

amu represents average of mass of a nucleon.

As carbon-12 has same average atomic mass and mass number therefore carbon-12 is a good standard to determine average mass of a nucleon.

Again, abundance of carbon-12 isotope is almost equal to 99%. Therefore fluctuation of average atomic weight from 12 amu is very very low.

So, carbon-12 is taken as a standard to determine mass of a nucleon.

Hence atomic mass of carbon-12 is 12 amu.

Which best describes how Dalton's early theory of atomic structure differs with modern theories? He did not know -
Alja [10]
<span>John Dalton introduced a theory proposing that elements vary because of the mass of their atoms.
He said in his theory that all matter is made up of indivisible blocks called atoms. He also stipulated in his theory that elements are identical thus, have different sizes and masses.
Dalton's theory was different from Niels Bohr who proposed a new atomic model which was also commonly known as the modern atomic theory. Bohr's theory says that atoms are arranged in circular orbits around the nucleus. He patterned his model as the solar system.

When a gas is cooled at constant pressure, what happens to its molecules and volume?
Dima020 [189]
Assuming it's a perfect gas, we have PV=nRT hence if T goes down, V goes down up. The volume will decrease.

Sliva [168]

Answer ; The question is missing in some details, but here are he details ;

The two naturally occurring isotopes of bromine are

81Br (80.916 amu, 49.31%) and

79Br (78.918 amu, 50.69%).

The two naturally occurring isotopes of chlorine are

37Cl (36.966 amu, 24.23%) and

35Cl (34.969 amu, 75.77%).

Bromine and chlorine combine to form bromine monochloride, BrCl.

Explanation:

The detaile calculation is as shown in the attachment.
