During an experiment, a student heated 3.06 g of pure tin, Sn, in a lidded crucible, intermittently allowing air to enter.
After the reaction went to completion, the gray, ashy product
was found to have a mass of 3.47 g. Was the product an ele-
ment, a compound, or a mixture? How do you account for the
additional mass?

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –  

6.022

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,  

u

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.

answer: cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create atp, a chemical which the cell uses for energy. usually, this process uses oxygen, and is called aerobic respiration. it has four stages known as glycolysis, link reaction, the krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.
