What is the atomic mass of an atom?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alborosie3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1 unit

Explanation:

It is expressed as a multiple of one-twelfth the mass of the carbon-12 atom, 1.992646547 × 10−23 gram, which is assigned an atomic mass of 12 units.

1/12 * 12 = 1. I think so.

Estimate the number of moles of water in all the Earth's oceans. Assume water covers 75% of the Earth to an average depth of 3 k
o-na [289]

Answer:

there are approximately n ≈ 10²² moles

Explanation:

Since the radius of the earth is approximately R=6378 km= 6.378*10⁶ m , then the surface S of the earth would be

S= 4*π*R²

since the water covers 75% of the Earth's surface , the surface covered by water Sw is

Sw=0.75*S

the volume for a surface Sw and a depth D= 3 km = 3000 m ( approximating the volume through a rectangular shape) is

V=Sw*D

the mass of water under a volume V , assuming a density ρ= 1000 kg/m³ is

m=ρ*V

the number of moles n of water ( molecular weight M= 18 g/mole = 1.8*10⁻² kg/mole ) for a mass m is

n = m/M

then

n = m/M = ρ*V/M = ρ*Sw*D/M = 0.75*ρ*S*D/M = 3/4*ρ*4*π*R² *D/M = 3*π*ρ*R² *D/M

n=3*π*ρ*R² *D/M

replacing values

n=3*π*ρ*R² *D/M = 3*π*1000 kg/m³*(6.378*10⁶ m)² *3000 m /(1.8*10⁻² kg/mole) = 3*π*6.378*3/1.8 * 10²⁰ = 100.18 * 10²⁰ ≈ 10²² moles

n ≈ 10²² moles

The disturbance of a supersaturated solution will cause
Flura [38]
The disturbance of a supersaturated solution will cause precipitation. A supersaturated solution is a solution that contains more solute than the solvent can dissolve. When this type of solution is disturbed like when it is moved, the formation of a solid is observed immediately.

Other than through sexual reproduction, how can variations in genetic material occur in a population?
melomori [17]

Answer:

Through their adaptations from their habitat; environment

Explanation:

Charles Darwin explains evolution and their genetic material evolves during the process. For example, fruit birds have narrow bills whilst seed-eating birds have big bills. The foods they eat forced their DNA to adapt with the system in order to survive.

Mixing vinegar and with baking soda produces carbon dioxide and water. Is this a chemical change or a physical change?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
This is a simple chemical change due to what it produces and how it is added together. Hope this helps.
