(a) what is the kenetic energy in J, of an Ar atom moving at the speed of 650m/s? (b) a mole of Ar atoms moving at 650m/s ( hint: 1 amu=1.66x10^-27

OpenStudy (aaronq):

\(K.E.=m*v^2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do i go about finding the mass of the Ar atom?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

divide the molar mass by avogadros number (you still need to convert to kg)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i convert to kg. im sorry this is all new to me

OpenStudy (aaronq):

1 g = 0.001 kg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im still kind of lost, can you show me how to set the problem up?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

\(KE=\dfrac{M_{Ar}}{6.022*10^{23}}*(650m/s)^2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you. how about part (b)

OpenStudy (aaronq):

multiply it by avogadros number (1 mole)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh thank you

OpenStudy (aaronq):

no problem dude
