If the diameter of a carbon atom is 0.15 nm, calculate the number of carbon atoms which can be placed side by side in a straight line across length of scale of length 20 cm long.
A certain particle carries 2.5 X 10-16C of static electric charge. Calculate the number of electrons present in it.
We have given,
Number of electron carrying charge of 2.5 x 10-16C
Charge on one electron =1.6022 x10-19C
1.6022 x10-19C charge is carried by 1 electron,
= 1 x (2.5 x10-16C) /1.6022 x10-19C
=1.560 x103C
=1560C
In Milikan's experiment, static electric charge on the oil drops has been obtained by shining X-rays. If the static electric charge on the oil drop is - 1.282 X 10-18C, calculate the number of electrons present on it.
Find: (a) the total number and (b) the total mass of protons in 34 mg of NH3 at STP.
Will the answer change if the temperature and pressure are changed ?
