Hello!

To do this, use the molar mass. This is how much a mole of an atom weighs. A mole is 6.02214076×10²³ atoms.

Molar masses of:

Se: 78.96 g/mol

Cu: 63.546 g/mol

Ba: 137.327 g/mol

Now, the element with the highest molar mass will have the fewest atoms. This is because the element weighs more, so therefore for the same amount of mass, there will be less of the element needed to reach that mass.

Therefore, 10g of Ba would have the fewest number of atoms.

Hope this helps!

Sophie [7]

The middle carbon is 4-degree since it is attached to 4 carbons. All other carbons are 1-degree since they are attached to only 1 carbon.

Hydrogens attached with 1-degree carbon are all same. Hydrogen are often refereed to as protons. No carbon is attached to 4-degree carbon. So all hydrogens in this structure are same.

This structure is called NeoPentane

A sample weighing 30.0 grams contains 1.5g of salt/ determine the percent salt found in the sample

jeka57 [31]

<span>Percentage by mass is the amount in mass of a component in a mixture per 100 unit of mass of the total mixture. Percentage by mass is the same as %w/w. We can determine this by dividing the mass of the solute with the total mass of the mixture. We calculate as follows:

Percent salt = 1.5 g salt / 30.0 g x 100 = 5% </span>
