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.
We have given,
Length of the given arrangement =2.4 cm
Number of carbon atoms present =2 x 108
Therefore, diameter of carbon atom
= 2.4x10-2 m/2 x108 =1.2 x10-10m
Thus, radius of carbon atom = Diameter/2
=1.2 x10-10/2 =6.0 x10-11m
A certain particle carries 2.5 X 10-16C of static electric charge. Calculate the number of electrons present in it.
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 ?
