    Chemistry Moles
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the number of carbon atoms in a mixture containing 0.237 mol of CO2 and 2.38 mol of CaC2. Participants clarify that one mole of a substance corresponds to 6.022 x 10^23 atoms or molecules, which is essential for determining mass and atomic calculations. Additionally, the mass of one atom and one mole of xenon is to be calculated, emphasizing the relationship between atomic mass units and grams. A correction is noted regarding Avogadro's number, confirming it as 6.022 x 10^23. Accurate calculations are crucial for understanding moles and atomic mass in chemistry.

Hi, can some one pleas tell me how to do these questions? Thanks.

How many atoms of C are in a mixture containing 0.237 mol of CO2 and 2.38 mol of CaC2?


calclate the following
the mass (g) of one atom of xenon
the mass (g) of one mole of xenon atoms
the number of atomic mass units in one gram
 
Physics news on Phys.org
One mole of a substance is mass (in grams) of the material which contains 6.022 E23 atoms or molecules of that substance, where the number of grams is given by the atomic or molecular mass.

Thanks ksinclair13 - it occurred to me this afternoon that I had written E22 instead of E23.

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
