The first step in the scientific methods is ask a question
This is a tricky question. All that matters are ratios of percentages, not percentages themselves. So no one should directly compare 27.2 with 42.9. We must and shall compare the ratios (27.2 to 72.8) and (42.9 to 57.1).
Take them both down to 1 to and see what happens.
Working out the formulas knowing atomic masses is a bit beside the point; this is how people first DISCOVERED the idea of atomic mass.
A
Carbon Oxygen
27.2g 72.8g (100-27.2)
Moles 27.2/12 72.8/16
2.27 4.55
Ratio 1 2
Do the same with the other
Answer:
Explanation:
Salt water intrusion can cause the <u><em>fresh</em></u> water in wells to become contaminated with<u><em> salt</em></u>water.
Answer:
1M HCl: add 1mol/12M = 83 ml conc. HCl to 1L of water or 8.3ml to 100ml.
2M HCl: add 2mol/12M = 167 ml conc. HCl to 1L of water or 16.7ml to 100ml.
They have different number of Neutrons and protons, so their masses are different
Hope this helps!
