Chemistry: Atoms First
- Which substance in each of the following pairs would you expect to have the higher boiling point?arrow_forwardBromine (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_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 mass of a copper coin is 7.83 g. Suppose it were pure copper. a) How many moles of Cu atoms would the copper contain, given that the molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol? The calculation has been set up for you. You must fill in the blanks with the correct values, including units. Round your answer to 3 significant figures. 7.83 g × (y) = (z) (x) = (y) = (z) = %3D b) How many Cu atoms are present? The calculate has been set up for you. You must fill in the blanks with the correct values, including units. Round your answer to 3 significant figures and use the exponent notation for Avogadro's number (i.e. 6.022E23 atoms). Note that (z) is the same value as above, so you don't need to fill it in again below. (m) (z) × (n) (p) (m) = (n) = (p) =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_forward
- Classify 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_forwardIn the periodic table, calcium, element 20, is surrounded by elements 12 magnesium , 19 potassium, 21 scandium, and 38 strontium. Which of these have physical and chemical properties most resembling calcium?arrow_forwardWhich elements have molecules as their basic units?(a) helium (b) oxygen(c) iron (d) brominearrow_forward
- 3. (a) Magnesium oxide was formed when the metal burns in air. (i) If 1.25 g of magnesium oxide contains 0.754 g of magnesium, determine the mass ratio of magnesium magnesium oxide. (ii) Calculate the weight of magnesium in 534 g of magnesium oxide.arrow_forwardSuppose that mercury forms a perfect spherical droplet with a diameter of 5.0 mm. (a) What is the volume of the mercury droplet in cubic centimeters (cm3)? (b) If the density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3, calculate the mass of the droplet. (c) How many mercury atoms are present in the droplet? (Volume of sphere = (4/3)3.14r3)arrow_forwardThe element oxygen has three naturally occurring isotopes, with 8,9, and 10 neutrons in the nucleus, respectively. (a) write the full chemical symbols for these three isotopes. (b) Describe the similarities and differences between the three kinds of atoms of oxygen.arrow_forward
