Atom is a neutral element found in nature without any charge. In other words, it has same number of Protons and electrons, whereas ion is a charged thing, either positive or negative. We can find their charge by:
Charge = Number of Protons - Number of Electrons
Hope this helps!
Molar mass of MgCO3 is 84.313 g/mol
You can calculate this from data on the periodic table:
Molar mass Mg = 24.305g/mol
molar mass C = 12.011g/mol
molar mass O = 15.999g/mol mass 3 mol = 47.997g
Total = 84.313g/mol
Mass to be used in 1.2L of 1.5M solution = 84.313g * 1.2L * 1.5mol /L = 151.763g
I have not taken significant figures into account
The balanced equation you provide is not necessary in this calculation
John Dalton was a scientist who proposed that all matter consists of atoms. At this stage, no one had yet discovered neutrons and the nucleus. As a result, Dalton's model consisted of a single atom i.e. the atom was the smallest object.
A mass spectrometer is an instrument that is able to see what is inside an atom. Scientists have been able to prove that the item is not the smallest object in the world. Atoms are made up of smaller objects called protons, neutrons and electrons.
We can, therefore, safely conclude that data from mass spectrometry has helped modern scientists to make modifications to Dalton's model. <span>
