- Copper atoms. (a) What is the average mass of one copper atom? (b) Students in a college computer science class once sued the college because they were asked to calculate the cost of one atom and could not do it. But you are in a chemistry course, and you can do this. (See E. Felsenthal, Wall Street Journal, May 9, 1995.)

What is the identity of X?arrow_forwardThe age of the universe is unknown, but some conclude from measuring Hubbles constant that the age is about 18 billion years old, which is about four times the age of Earth. If so, calculate the age of the universe in seconds. If you had a sample of carbon with the same number of carbon atoms as there have been seconds since the universe began, determine whether you could measure this sample on a laboratory balance that can detect masses as small as 0.1 mg.arrow_forward
