- It may be said that because atomic, molecular, and formula masses are all based on carbon-12, they are conceptually alike. What then are their differences?arrow_forwardWhich of the three terms atomic mass, molecular mass, or formula mass is most appropriate for each of the following: ammonia, calcium oxide, barium, chlorine, sodium carbonate?arrow_forwardCarbonic anhydrase, an important enzyme in mammalian respiration, is a large zinc-containing protein with a molar mass of 3.00 × 104 g/mol. The zinc is 0.218% by mass of the protein. Determine how many zinc atoms each carbonic anhydrase molecule contains.arrow_forward
- Atomic masses are relative masses. What does this mean?arrow_forwardFor each of the following ionic substances, calculate the percentage of the overall molar mass of the compound that is represented by the negative ions in the substance. l type='a'> ammonium sulfide calcium chloride barium oxide nickel(II) sulfatearrow_forwardSuppose Avogadro’s number was 1000 instead of 6.0221023 . How, if at all, would this affect the relative masses on the periodic table? How, if at all, would this affect the absolute masses of the elements?arrow_forward
- A compound NiX3 is 19.67% (by mass) nickel. What is the molar mass of the compound? What is the name of the compound?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_forwardGiven that the molar mass of carbon tetrachloride, CCl4 , is 153 g, calculate the mass in grams of 1 molecule of CCl4 .arrow_forward
