Chapter 2, Problem 2.119P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The fraction of volume in a helium atom occupied by the nucleus is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Atom is a neutral particle. The presence of an equal number of protons and neutrons make atom a neutral species. Protons are positively charged particles that along with the neutral particles neutrons, make up the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus of an atom is densely packed and occupies a very small volume in the atom at the center. Electrons are negatively charged particles that revolve around the atomic nucleus due to the electrostatic force of attraction between the protons and the electrons.

The formula to calculate the volume of the spherical helium atom is,

Volume of the atom=43π(radius of the atom)3 (1)

The formula to calculate the volume of the spherical nucleus is,

Volume of the nucleus=43π(radius of the nucleus)3 (2)

The formula to calculate the fraction of the volume of atom occupied by the nucleus is,

Fraction of volume=Volume of the nucleusVolume of the atom (3)

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The fraction of the helium-4 atom's mass occupied by the nucleus is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Atom is a neutral particle. The presence of an equal number of protons and neutrons make atom a neutral species. Protons are positively charged particles that along with the neutral particles neutrons, make up the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus of an atom is densely packed and occupies a very small volume in the atom at the center. Electrons are negatively charged particles that revolve around the atomic nucleus due to the electrostatic force of attraction between the protons and the electrons.

The general formula to calculate the total mass of the electrons in a helium-4 is,

Total mass of electrons=(2)(mass of each electron) (7)

The general formula to calculate the mass of the nucleus of an atom is,

Mass of nucleus=Mass of the atomMass of the electrons (8)

The general formula to calculate the mass fraction of the nucleus of an atom is,

Mass fraction=Mass of the nucleusMass of the atom (9)
