A sample of solid elemental phosphorus that is deep red in color is burned. While the phosphorus is burning, a white smoke is produced that is actually a finely divided solid that is collected. a. Have the molecules of phosphorus been changed by the process of burning? Explain your answer. b. Is the collected white solid a different substance from the phosphorus? Explain you answer. c. In terms of the number of atoms contained, how do you think the size of the molecules of the white solid compares with the size of the molecules of phosphorus? Explain your answer. d. Classify molecules of the collected white solid using the term homotatomic or heteroatomic. Explain your reasoning.
The mole is the SI unit for the amount of a substance. The mass of one mole of pure table sugar is 342.3 grams. How many grams of sugar are in exactly 1/2 mole? What is the mass of 0.764 mole?
In a neutron star, gravity causes the electrons to combine with protons to form neutrons. A typical neutron star has a mass half that of the sun, compressed into a sphere of radius 20 km. If such a neutron star contains 6.01056 neutrons, calculate its density in grams per cubic centimeter. Compare this with the density inside a 232Th nucleus, in which 142 neutrons and 90 protons occupy a sphere of radius 9.11013cm . Take the mass of a neutron to be 1.6751024g and that of a proton to be 1.6731024g .
A materials engineer has filed for a patent for a new alloy to be used in golf club heads. The composition by mass ranges from 25 to 31% manganese, 6.3 to 7.8% aluminum, 0.65 to 0.85% carbon, and 5.5 to 9.0% chromium, with the remainder being iron. What are the maximum and minimum percentages of iron possible in this alloy? Use Figure 2.12 to snake a prediction about how the density of this alloy would compare with that of iron; justify your prediction.

Copper atoms. (a) What is the average mass of one copper atom? (b) Students in a college computer science class once sued the college because they were asked to calculate the cost of one atom and could not do it. But you are in a chemistry course, and you can do this. (See E. Felsenthal, Wall Street Journal, May 9, 1995.) If the cost of 2.0-mm diameter copper wire (99.9995% pure] is currently 41.70 for 7.0 g, what is the cost of one copper atom?

Several samples of methane gas, the primary component of natural gas, are decomposed into carbon and hydrogen. The masses of the carbon and hydrogen are then weighed, and the results are tabulated as shown here. Which of these does not follow the law of constant composition? a. 4.0 grams hydrogen and 12.0 grams carbon b. 1.5 grams hydrogen and 4.5 grams carbon c. 7.0 grams hydrogen and 17.0 grams carbon d. 10 grams hydrogen and 30 grams carbon
Calculate the number of atoms in the universe. The following steps will guide you through this calculation: a. Planets constitute less than 1% of the total mass of the universe and can, therefore, be neglected. Stars make up most of the visible mass of the universe, so we need to determine how many atoms are in a star. Stars are primarily composed of hydrogen atoms and our Sun is an average-sized star. Calculate the number of hydrogen atoms in our Sun given that the radius of the Sun is 7108 m and its density is 1.4g/cm3. The volume of a sphere is given by V=(43)r3 (Hint: Use the volume and the density to get the mass of the Sun.) b. The average galaxy (like our own Milky Way galaxy) contains 11011 stars, and the universe contains 1109 galaxies. Calculate the number of atoms in an average galaxy and finally the number of atoms in the entire universe. c. You can hold 11023 atoms in your hand (five copper pennies constitute 1.41023 copper atoms.) How does this number compare with the number of atoms in the universe?
It is often possible to change a hydrate into an anhydrous compound by heating it to drive off the water (dehydration). A 48.43 gram sample of a hydrate of CaSO4 was heated thoroughly in a porcelain crucible, until its weight remained constant. After heating, 38.30 grams of the anhydrous compound remained. What is the formula of the hydrate? Use a period instead of a dot in the formula of the hydrate. anhydrous salt --hydrated salt
