Would you agree to buy 1.23 x 1023 silver atoms for $10? Explain why or why not, showing all work. The current price of silver is 0.87 dollars/gram.
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
Would you agree to buy 1.23 x 1023 silver atoms for $10? Explain why or why not, showing all work. The current price of silver is 0.87 dollars/gram.
First of all we calculate the gram of silver for given number of atoms of silver. Then we will compare the obtained value with Given value and decide that to purchase or not.
One mole of any substance = 6.023×1023 atoms/Molecules = gram atomic or Molecular mass = 22.4 liter of volume
Thus ,from mole concept 6.023 × 1023 atoms of any substance equal to their atomic mass in gram.
