One mole of Gold (Au) atom has a mass of 197 g. We know that the density of gold is 19.30 g/cm3 in room temperature. Using those numbers, answer the following questions:
a) What is the mass of a single gold atom in kg?
b) Assume that gold atoms sit in a perfect cubic crystal structure. Estimate the distance between two gold atoms in meters.
c) If we have a gold cube of 6 cm on each side, how many atoms can we fit along the edge of each side of the cube?
d) What would be the mass, in kilograms, of the gold cube we discussed in part (c) (measuring 6 cm on each side)?
Experimental data shows that the atmosphere of planet X is composed of
pure carbon dioxide, with the pressure on ground level being 700 Pa. The
temperature of the atmosphere is also found to decrease linearly with
elevation, such that the temperature drops 10 degrees Celsius for every
5m elevation. With the help of the data and equations below, estimate
the pressure 50m above ground level. Assume that the temperature at
the surface of Planet X is (-60) degrees Celsius. *
