Table Giving Answer
Element Atomic mass % Amount
Mg_24 24 79 18.96
Mg_25 25 10 2.5
Mg_26 26 11 2.86
Total 24.32
Discussion
The method of calculation for this table, which was done in Excel (a spread sheet) is shown below. Assume that there is 100 grams of material of "pure" magnesium. What is it's mass?
<em><u>Sample Calculation</u></em>
The the sample atomic mass = 24
Mass = % * sample atomic mass
Mass = 79% * 24
Mass = (79/100) * 24
Mass = 18.96
<em><u>Note</u></em>
The other two elements are found exactly the same as the sample calculation.
Then all you do is add the 3 masses together.
Answer
The mass of Mg to 1 decimal place is 24.3 <<<< Answer.
Mass CoCl2 = 10.27 g
moles CoCl2 = 10.27 g/ 129.839 g/mol=0.07910
mass water = 17.40 - 10.27=7.13 g
moles water = 7.13 / 18.02 g/mol=0.396
0.396/ 0.07910=5
CoCl2 * 5 H2O
moles CaF2 = 85.8 g/ 78.0748 g/mol=1.10
moles Ca = 1.10
mass Ca = 1.10 x 40.078 g/mol=44.1 g
V = 44.1 / 1.55 =28.5 mL

Answer: Gases are complicated. They're full of billions and billions of energetic gas molecules that can collide and possibly interact with each other. Since it's hard to exactly describe a real gas, people created the concept of an Ideal gas as an approximation that helps us model and predict the behavior of real gases. The term ideal gas refers to a hypothetical gas composed of molecules which follow a few rules:
Ideal gas molecules do not attract or repel each other. The only interaction between ideal gas molecules would be an elastic collision upon impact with each other or an elastic collision with the walls of the container. [What is an elastic collision?]
Ideal gas molecules themselves take up no volume. The gas takes up volume since the molecules expand into a large region of space, but the Ideal gas molecules are approximated as point particles that have no volume in and of themselves.
If this sounds too ideal to be true, you're right. There are no gases that are exactly ideal, but there are plenty of gases that are close enough that the concept of an ideal gas is an extremely useful approximation for many situations. In fact, for temperatures near room temperature and pressures near atmospheric pressure, many of the gases we care about are very nearly ideal.
If the pressure of the gas is too large (e.g. hundreds of times larger than atmospheric pressure), or the temperature is too low (e.g.
−
200
C
−200 Cminus, 200, start text, space, C, end text) there can be significant deviations from the ideal gas law.
