The mole is defined in terms of the carbon-12 atom. Use the definition to find (a) the mass in grams equal to 1 atomic mass unit; (b) the ratio of the gram to the atomic mass unit.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The mass in gram that is equal to 1 amu is 1.661 x 10-24 g12c

(b) The ratio of the gram to amu is 1.661 x 10-24 g / amu

Step by step solution

01

a. Step 1: Finding the mass in grams equal to 1 atomic mass unit

It is known that:

mC12=12 amu1 amu=112.(mC12)              =112.12 g6.022.1023              =1.661×10-24g.

02

b.Step 2: Finding the ratio of the gram to the atomic mass unit

The ratio of the gram to atomic mass unit is 1.661 x 10-24 g/amu

Hydroxyapatite, Ca5(PO4)3(OH), is the main mineral component of dental enamel, dentin, and bone, and thus has many medical uses. Coating it on metallic implants (such as titanium alloys and stainless steels) helps the body accept the implant. In the form of powder and beads, it is used to fill bone voids, which encourages natural bone to grow into the void. Hydroxyapatite is prepared by adding aqueous phosphoric acid to a dilute slurry of calcium hydroxide. (a) Write a balanced equation for this preparation. (b) What mass of hydroxyapatite could form from 100 g of 85% phosphoric acid and 100. g of calcium hydroxide?

Glyphosate (below) is a common herbicide that is relatively harmless to animals but deadly to most plants. Describe the shape around and the hybridization of the P, N, and three numbered C atoms.

When neptunium (Np) and plutonium (Pu) were discovered, the periodic table did not include the actinides, so these elements were placed in Group 7B(7) and 8B(8). When americium (Am) and curium (Cm) were synthesized, they were placed in Group 8B(9) and 8B(10). However, during chemical isolation procedures, Glenn Seaborg and his group, who had synthesized these elements, could not find their compounds among other compounds of these groups, which led Seaborg to suggest they were part of a new inner transition series.

(a) How do the electron configurations of these elements support Seaborg’s suggestion?

(b) The highest fluorides of Np and Pu are hexafluorides, as is the highest fluoride of uranium. How does this chemical evidence support the placement of Np and Pu as inner transition elements rather than transition elements?

A compound of iodine and cesium contains 63.94 g of metal and 61.06 g of nonmetal. How many grams of cesium are in38.77 g of compound? How many grams of iodine?
