Question
Chapter 1, Problem 36P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The number of atoms of silicon needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: From number of moles and molar mass of a substance, the mass can be calculated using the following relation:
Here, n is number of moles and M is molar mass.
Also, in 1 mol of any substance, there are
The density is defined as mass per unit volume. It is mathematically represented as follows:
Here, m is mass and V is volume.
