<span>361.4 pm is the length of the edge of the unit cell. First, let's calculate the average volume each atom is taking. Start with calculating how many moles of copper we have in a cubic centimeter by looking up the atomic weight. Atomic weight copper = 63.546 Now divide the mass by the atomic weight, getting 8.94 g / 63.546 g/mol = 0.140685488 mol And multiply by Avogadro's number to get the number of atoms: 0.140685488 * 6.022140857x10^23 = 8.472278233x10^22 Now examine the face-centered cubic unit cell to see how many atoms worth of space it consumes. There is 1 atom at each of the 8 corners and each of those atoms is shared between 8 unit cells for for a space consumption of 8/8 = 1 atom. And there are 6 faces, each with an atom in the center, each of which is shared between 2 unit cells for a space consumption of 6/2 = 3 atoms. So each unit cell consumes as much space as 4 atoms. Let's divide the number of atoms in that cubic centimeter by 4 to determine the number of unit cells in that volume. 8.472278233x10^22 / 4 = 2.118069558x10^22 Now calculate the volume each unit cell occupies. 1 cm^3 / 2.118069558x10^22 = 4.721280262x10^-23 cm^3 Let's get the cube root to get the length of an edge. (4.721280262x10^-23 cm^3)^(1/3) = 3.61426x10^-08 cm Now let's convert from cm to pm. 3.61426x10^-08 cm / 100 cm/m * 1x10^12 pm/m = 361.4 pm Doing an independent search for the Crystallographic Features of Copper, I see that the Lattice Parameter for copper at at 293 K is 3.6147 x 10^-10 m which is in very close agreement with the calculated amount above. And since metals expand and contract with heat and cold, I assume the slight difference in values is due to the density figure given being determined at a temperature lower than 293 K.</span>

How many hydrogen atoms are attached to each carbon adjacent to a double bond? nurition?
larisa [96]
That depends. there are 2 possible answers.
      H
C - C = C - H gives a different answer on the right than on the left.

One the left side, the second Carbon is attached to a double bond and has but one hydrogen attached to it.

The Carbon on the right of the double bond has 2
     H
C- C = C - H
            H

I'm not sure what you should put. It's one of those things that I would repeat my argument and submit it.

Sort these six events from the earliest to the most recent. Democritus proposes the existence of atoms- Dalton's atomic theory-
Igoryamba
These events are actually sorted right, according to the time they occurred.
1. Democritus proposes the existence of atoms - this happened in the 5th century BC
2. Dalton's atomic theory - it was first presented in 1803
3. J.J. Thomson discovers the electron - happened in 1897
4. Rutherford's gold foil experiment - somewhere between 1908 and 1913
5. Bohr model - it was introduced in 1913
6. Schrodinger's wave - the equation was published in 1925

a sample of 0.0084 mol of HCl is dissolved in water to make a 1500 mL solution. calculate the molar it’s of the HCl solution, Th
Allisa [31]

Answer:

pH = 2.25

Explanation:

pH is a measurement in chemistry defined as the -log [H₃O⁺]. Molarity [], is defined as the ratio between moles of solute (HCl) and the liters of solution

To solve this question we must find the molarity of the H₃O⁺ knowing: [HCl] = [H₃O⁺]

[HCl]:

0.0084moles / 1.500L

= 0.0056M = [HCl] = [H₃O⁺]

pH = -log [H₃O⁺] = -log [0.0056M]

<h3>pH = 2.25</h3>

Imagine you are given a mystery element. It is, however, a discovered and known element. You may perform a maximum of two observ
miv72 [106K]

The classification of it being a metal, nonmetal, or metalliod will be useful in the process of elimination to determine what it is. Then for the second test, meauring the atomin radius will narrow it down quicker to the mystery elemet's name.

Since you determined what part of the periodic table it's on, then when measuring the atomic radius, you should be able to pinpoint what the element is more surely.
