Suppose a 2.200-g nugget of pure gold has zero net charge. What would be its net charge after it has 1.00% of its electrons removed? Molar mass of gold is 196.96654 g/mol.
Added by Joseph D.
Step 1
Find the number of electrons in the nugget of gold: - First, calculate the number of moles of gold in the nugget: 2.200 g / 196.96654 g/mol = 0.01116 mol - Then, use Avogadro's number to find the number of atoms of gold in the nugget: 0.01116 mol x 6.022 x 10^23 Show more…
