Copper: (a) Suppose you have a cube of copper metal that is 0.236 cm on a side with a mass of 0.1206 g. If you know that each copper atom (radius = 128 pm) has a mass of 1.055 1022 g (you will learn in Chapter 2 how to find the mass of one atom), how many atoms are there in this cube? What fraction of the cube is filled with atoms? (Or conversely, how much of the lattice is empty space?) Why is there empty space in the lattice? (b) Now look at the smallest, repeating unit of the crystal lattice of copper. Knowing that an edge of this cube is 361.47 pm and the density of copper is 8.960 g/cm3, calculate the number of copper atoms in this smallest, repeating unit.
These questions concern the work of J. J. Thomson: From Thomson’s work, which particles do you think he would feel are most important in the formation of compounds (chemical changes) and why? Of the remaining two subatomic particles, which do you place second in importance for forming compounds and why? Come up with three models that explain Thomson’s findings and evaluate them. To be complete you should include Thomson’s findings.
Calculate the average density of a single Al-27 atom by assuming that it is a sphere with a radius of 0.143 nm. The masses of a proton, electron, and neutron are 1.67261024g,9.10941028g, and 1.67491024g, respectively. The volume of a sphere is 4r3/3, where r is its radius. Express the answer in grams per cubic centimeter. The density of aluminum is found experimentally to be 2.70 g/cm3. What does that suggest about the packing of aluminum atoms in the metal?
Estimating the radius of a lead atom. (a) You are given a cube of lead that is 1.000 cm on each side. The density of lead is 11.35 g/ cm3. How many atoms of lead are in the sample? (b) Atoms are spherical; therefore, the lead atoms in this sample cannot fill all the available space As an approximation, assume that 60% of the space of the cube is filled with spherical lead atoms. Calculate the volume of one lead atom from this information. From the calculated volume (V) and the formula (4/3) 3 for the volume of a sphere, estimate the radius (r) of a lead atom.
A gaseous binary compound has a vapor density that is 1.94 times that of oxygen at the same temperature and pressure. When 1.39 g of the gas is burned in an excess of oxygen, 1.21 g water is formed, removing all the hydrogen originally present. (a) Estimate the molecular mass of the gaseous compound. (b) How many hydrogen atoms are there in a molecule of the compound? (c) What is the maximum possible value of the atomic mass of the second element in the compound? (d) Are other values possible for the atomic mass of the second element? Use a table of atomic masses to identify the element that best fits the data. (e) What is the molecular formula of the compound?
The average atomic masses of some elements may vary, depending upon the sources of their ores. Naturally occurring boron consists of two isotopes with accurately known masses ( 10B, 10.0129 amu and 11B, 11.0931 amu). The actual atomic mass of boron can vary from 10.807 to 10.8 19, depending on whether the mineral source is from Turkey or the United States. Calculate the percent abundances leading to the two values of the average atomic masses of boron from these two countries.
In 1886 Eugene Goldstein observed positively charged particles moving in the opposite direction to electrons in a cathode ray tube (illustrated below). From their mass, he concluded that these particles were formed from residual gas in the tube. For example, if the cathode ray tube contained helium, the canal rays consisted of He+ ions. Describe a process that could lead to these ions. Canal rays. In 1886, Eugene Goldstein detected a stream of particles traveling in the direction opposite to that of the negatively charged cathode rays (electrons). He called this stream of positive particles "canal rays:"
