Chapter 2, Problem 82QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecular formula of ethanol using a molecular model is to be written.

Concept introduction:

A molecular model is a three-dimensional representation of molecules of a compound.

In a ball-and-stick-model, balls represent the atoms of an element and sticks represent the chemical bonds. These balls and sticks are connected to each other in a specific manner to show the molecular shape of a compound.

The molecular formula signifies the exact number of atoms of each element, which are present in the molecule of a particular compound.

Stony meteorites are made up of minerals that contain silicates, which are materials made of silicon and oxygen . One particular meteorite contains a silicone composition that differs from that on earth. This sample of silicon contains three isotopes, ^ 28 S i (27.846 amu, 45.97% abundant), ^ 29 Si (28.901 amu, 26.52% abundant) and ^ 30 Si If the average atomic mass of this sample of silicon is 28.70 amu, what is the mass of the 30 Si isotope in amu? Enter your answer to two decimal places .
In 1808 John Dalton published his atomic theory which was quickly adopted. The five tenets of Dalton's theory are An element is composed of tiny indivisible, indestructible particles called atoms. All the atoms of an element are identical and have the same properties. Atoms of different elements combine to form compounds. Compounds contain atoms in ratios of small whole numbers. Atoms can combine in more than one ratio to form different compounds. Although all of the statements were valid at the time, several have been modified as new discoveries were made. Which of these tenets have been modified? What caused the modification?
Assume that for the following molecules, carbon=12 amu, hydrogen= 1 amu, nitrogen= 14 amu and oxygen= 16 amu. Please calculate the molecular mass of molecular oxygen.
