Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Number of protons = 28

Number of neutrons = 28

Mass of each proton = 1.007277 amu

Mass of 28 protons = 28 * 1.007277 amu = 28.203756 amu

Mass of each neutron = 1.008665 amu

Mass of 28 neutrons = 28 * 1.008665 amu = 28.24262 amu

mass defect of nickel-56  = 0.4667 amu

Binding energy = Δmc^2

Binding energy = 0.4667 *(3 * 10^8)^2

Binding energy =4.2 * 10^16 J

Binding energy per nucleon = 4.2 * 10^16 J/56

Binding energy per nucleon = 7.5 * 10^14 J

How much mass do 3.4 moles of silver contain?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

367.2 g of silver

Explanation:

To find the mass of a substance knowing the number of moles we use the following formula:

number of mole = mass / molecular weight

In the case of silver we use the atomic weight of 108 g/mole.

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of silver = 3.4 moles × 108 g/mole

mass of silver = 367.2 g

Determine the number of grams in each of the quantities<br><br> 1.39.0 x 1024 molecules Cl2
STatiana [176]

Mass of Cl₂ : 164.01 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A mole is a number of particles(atoms, molecules, ions)  in a substance

This refers to the atomic total of the 12 gr C-12  which is equal to 6.02.10²³, so 1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles  

Can be formulated :

N = n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number

mol Cl₂ :

\tt n=\dfrac{N}{No}\\\\n=\dfrac{1.39.10^{24}}{6.02.10^{23}}\\\\n=2.31

mass Cl₂(MW=71 g/mol) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=2.31\times 71=164.01
