Answer» Answer: The dalton or unified atomic mass unit is a unit of mass widely used in physics and chemistry. It is defined as 1/12 of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 in its nuclear and electronic ground STATE and at rest. The atomic mass constant, denoted mᵤ is defined identically, giving mᵤ = m/12 = 1 Da. One mole contains exactly 6.022 140 76 x 1023 elementary entities. This number is the fixed numerical value of the Avogadro constant, NA, when EXPRESSED in the unit mol–1 and is called the Avogadro number. An oxide (/ˈɒksaɪd/) is a chemical COMPOUND that contains at least one OXYGEN atom and one other element in its chemical formula. "Oxide" itself is the dianion of oxygen, an O2– (MOLECULAR) ion. |
