Since there are many more Carbon-12 isotopes found in nature, the mass of Carbon-12 should carry the most importance when determining carbon's mass. This type of averaging is known as a weighted average. The average atomic mass of an element is a weighted average. So, what is the average atomic mass for carbon? 12.5 amu 12.01070 amu
16. Rutherford's experiment with gold estimated the radius of a gold atom to be approximately 1 x 10⁹ cm. Suppose the radius of the nucleus is the same as a basketball. Would the volume of the atom be bigger or smaller than that of a typical domed athletic stadium? Show a little math to support your answer.
1. Marie Curie was a Polish scientist that specialized in chemistry and physics. She wanted to understand how X-rays worked and noticed in her studies that the element, Uranium, gave off rays that could be measured but did not know what the rays were. She assumed that the rays came from the uranium itself instead of through different molecules interacting with each other. To study the rays, she used an instrument, called an electrometer, that studied the electricity that the rays passed through the air. Through this she was able to discover that the more uranium atoms there were in a compound, the stronger the rays that came off of it. She used this discovery to test other minerals that emitted more rays than Uranium, and discovered the elements Thorium, Polonium and Radium. Through her discoveries of these elements, scientists were able to find the structure of the atom and even how the rays can be used to fight cancer. What was Marie Curie’s observation? 2.

Which statement is the best description of the pattern for ionic charge on the periodic table? A:There is no pattern for ionic charge on the periodic table. B:Elements in the same horizontal row tend to form ions with the same charge. C:Elements in the same vertical column tend to form ions with the same charge. D:Most elements on the periodic table do not form ions because they are already stable.
Periodic Table 15. Write the letter of each statement that is true about the average atomic mass of an element and the relative abundance of its isotopes. a. In nature, most elements occur as a mixture of two or more isotopes. b. Isotopes of an element do not have a specific natural percent abundance. c. The average atomic mass of an element is usually closest to that of the isotope with the natural highest abundance. d. Because hydrogen has three isotopes with atomic masses of about 1 amu, 2 amu and 3 amu, respectively, the average atomic mass of natural is 2 amu.
