EBK CHEMISTRY: ATOMS FIRST
- Bromine (atomic mass 79.904 amu) consists of 2 different naturally occurring isotopes, Br-79 (atomic mass = 78.9193 amu) and Br-81 (80.9163 amu). If a student measures out 35.47 mL of Br2(l), which has a density = 3.119 g/mL), calculate the number of atoms of Br-81 in the given volume of bromine liquid.arrow_forward1b.arrow_forwardThe mass of a single vanadium atom is 8.46×10-23 grams. How many vanadium atoms would there be in a sample of vanadium with a volume of 305 cm3 if the density of vanadium is 6.20 g/cm3? I get confused when I'm given info that is already in scientific form. Do I expand them or do I leave it as it is? And I am not sure what form my answer is supposed to be in.arrow_forward
- The density of gold metal is 19.3 g/cm3, while that for silver is 10.5 g/cm3. Suppose you had the same size bar of each metal, with the dimensions 2.00 in x 10.0 cm x 760 mm. Volume of a cube is height x length x width. Which bar would have the greatest mass? Which bar contains the greater number of atoms? If the two bars were melted and mixed together to form an alloy (or mixture) what would be the total mass?arrow_forwardThe picture shows the structures of two compounds. The two compounds have similar chemical properties. Why is this? Their molecules have the same A functional group. B number of carbon atoms. C number of oxygen atoms. D relative molecular mass.arrow_forwardClassify each of the following as a compound, a homogeneous mixture, or a heterogeneous mixture: (a) distilled water; (b) gasoline; (c) beach sand; (d) wine; (e) air.arrow_forward
- Classify the solid state of the following substances as ionic crystals, covalent crystals, molecular crystals, or metallic crystals:arrow_forwardCompounds are combinations of elements. The combination of those elements is specific to the compound. Some compounds have the exact same elements but in different amounts. Look at C6H12O6, which you hopefully recognize as glucose (think cellular respiration and photosynthesis. But ribose is a 5 carbon sugar and its formula is C5H10O5 which you hopefully recognize (think RNA). They both have the same elements, but have different numbers of each element (sugars all have the 1:2:1 ratio). When you're looking at a formula, it's wise to look for the capital letters. That indicates when a different element is present. For glucose, there's a capital C - carbon, a capital H - hydrogen, and a capital O - oxygen. Behind elements, the subscripts help indicate the number of each element that's present. In glucose, there are 6 carbons, 12 hydrogens, and 6 oxygens. How many carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens does ribose have in its formula?arrow_forwardWhich elements have molecules as their basic units?(a) helium (b) oxygen(c) iron (d) brominearrow_forward

(ii) Calculate the weight of magnesium in 534 g of magnesium oxide.arrow_forward(c) An unknown atom has 20 neutrons. Its mass is 6.138 ×10-23 g. (i) (ii) Determine the chemical symbol of the atom. Show all your calculations. Name this substance.arrow_forwardDuring a filtration or distillation experiment, we separate a mixture into its individual components. Do the chemical identities of the components of the mixture change during such a process? Explain.arrow_forward
