Chapter 8.2, Problem 8.2SC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of atoms of oxygen in 288 amu should be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Atomic mass unit measures mass in an atomic scale, it is a standard unit for mass. Here, 1 amu is equal to the mass of either one proton or neutron and equals to 1 g/mol. Atomic mass unit is equal to 1/12th of the mass of C-12 atom. For example, if average atomic mass of carbon is 12.01 thus, it is the mass of 1 carbon atom.
