Silver is composed of two naturally occurring isotopes: Ag-107 (51.839%) and Ag-109. The ratio of the masses of the two isotopes is 1.0187. What is the mass of Ag-107?
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets limits on healthful levels of air pollutants. The maximum level that the EPA considers safe for lead air pollution is 1.5 mg>m3. If your lungs were filled with air containing this level of lead, how many lead atoms would be in your lungs? (Assume a total lung volume of 5.50 L.)
Pure gold is usually too soft for jewelry, so it is often alloyed with other metals. How many gold atoms are in an 0.255- ounce, 18 K gold bracelet? (18 K gold is 75% gold by mass.)
Let a triangle represent atoms of element A and a circle represent atoms of element B. b. Draw an atomic view of the compound AB in a liquid state (molecules close together).
