- Atomic masses are relative masses. What does this mean?arrow_forwardGallium arsenide, GaAs, has gained widespread use in semiconductor devices that convert light and electrical signals in fiber-optic communications systems. Gallium consists of 60.% 69Ga and 40.% 71Ga. Arsenic has only one naturally occurring isotope, 75As. Gallium arsenide is a polymeric material, but its mass spectrum shows fragments with the formulas GaAs and Ga2As2. What would the distribution of peaks look like for these two fragments?arrow_forwardThe element bromine is Br2, so the mass of a Br2 molecule is the sum of the mass of its two atoms. Bromine has two isotopes. The mass spectrum of Br2 produces three peaks with relative masses of 157.836, 159.834, and 161.832, and relative heights of 6.337, 12.499. and 6.164, respectively. (a) What isotopes of bromine are present in each of the three peaks? (b) What is the mass of each bromine isotope? (c) What is the average atomic mass of bromine? (d) What is the abundance of each of the two bromine isotopes?arrow_forward
- 3.80 Which one of the following metal samples cannot possibly exist? not? (a) a piece of gold foil 10-6 m thick (b) 5 mg of platinum (c) 10-24 mol of aluminum (d) a copper wire 0.1 mm in diameterarrow_forward3.116 The simplest approximate chemical formula for the human body could be written as C728H4850O1970N104Ca24P16K4S4Na3Cl2Mg. Based on this formula, describe how you would rank by mass the ten most abundant elements in the human body.arrow_forwardWith the advent of techniques such as scanning tunneling microscopy, it is now possible to write with individual atoms by manipulating and arranging atoms on an atomic surface. a. If an image is prepared by manipulating iron atoms and their total mass is 1.05 1020 g, what number of iron atoms were used? b. If the image is prepared on a platinum surface that is exactly 20 platinum atoms high and 14 platinum atoms wide, what is the mass (grams) of the atomic surface? c. If the atomic surface were changed to ruthenium atoms and the same surface mass as determined in part b is used, what number of ruthenium atoms is needed to construct the surface?arrow_forward
- A compound associated with the odor of garlic on a persons breath has the chemical formula CyH8S and a formula mass of 88.19 amu. What number does y stand for in the chemical formula of the compound?arrow_forwardConsider the following data for three binary compounds of hydrogen and nitrogen: %H (by Mass) %N (by Mass) I 17.75 82.25 II 12.58 87.42 III 2.34 97.66 When 1.00 L of each gaseous compound is decomposed to its elements, the following volumes of H2(g) and N2(g) are obtained: H2(L) N2(L) I 1.50 0.50 II 2.00 1.00 III 0.50 1.50 Use these data to determine the molecular formulas of compounds I, II, and III and to determine the relative values for the atomic masses of hydrogen and nitrogen.arrow_forward
