Why is the density of an oxygen nucleus much greater than that of oxygen gas?
Almost all of the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus (a nucleon weighs about 2000 times more than an electron) and almost all of an atom is empty space; the nucleus is much smaller than an atom. And a gas also is composed almost entirely of empty space between the atoms or molecules. So the density of an oxygen nucleus is vastly greater than that of oxygen gas.
Why is sulfur larger than oxygen?
Sulfur is larger than oxygen because it has more protons in its nucleus and more electrons in the orbital shells.
How much the percentage of oxygen heavier than air?
The density of oxygen is 1,429 g/L. The density of air is 1,290 g/L.
Is cation larger than its parent atom?
No. It is smaller.
Is carbon monoxcide heavier than oxygen?
Oxygen as a gas is heavier than carbonmonoxide This is because carbon monoxide consists of one oxygen atom and one carbon atom. This says that if the mass of oxygen is x and the mass of carbon is x-z (its not as heavy as oxygen) then a carbon monoxide molecule is 2x-z. Also we must keep in mind that z is smaller than x. On the other hand an oxygen molecule is 2x. It is obvious that 2x is larger than 2x-z unless z is 0 or smaller. However z cant be 0 or smaller because then carbon as an atom would be heavier than oxygen which it isn't. However Carbon Monoxide is heavier than oxygen as an atom. Again we can say CO is 2x-z and since z is less than x, 2x-z>x. Also x is an oxygen atoms mass. So CO>O but CO<O2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is a molecule of oxygen larger than a molecule of hydrogen?
A single oxygen atom is smaller than a molecule.
Is boron atomicly bigger or smaller than Oxygen?
Boron has a larger atomic radius but a smaller atomic mass.
Why do ships float when stones sink?
Things that float have a smaller density than water and things that sink have a larger density than water. Because a stone is heavy for its size it sinks but although a ship is heavier its mass is spread out over a larger area so its density is smaller and therefore it floats.
Is density of 2 mL of water smaller of larger than 1 mL of water?
The density of any substance remains the sameirrespective of its volume.
Is 0.21 smaller or larger than 0.2?
0.21 is larger than 0.2
Is the sulfur-oxygen bond larger or smaller than the sulfur's lone electron pairs?
yes i think
What occurs when a larger oxygen atom shares electrons with smaller hydrogen atoms?
It forms a covalent bond. Because of the high electronegativity of the oxygen, with respect to the hydrogen, the covalent bond is highly polar, meaning the electron density is nearer the oxygen than the hydrogen. This creates a dipole where the oxygen is net negative and the hydrogens are net positive.
A probability can be no larger than what and no smaller than what?
A probability can be no larger than 1 and no smaller than 0.
What the asteroids are larger or smaller than planets?
are asteroids smaller or larger than planets
Is 0.2 smaller or larger than 0.02?
it is larger.
The pressure in a gas cylinder containing hydrogen will leak more quikly than if it is containing oxygen?
The pressure in a gas cylinder containing hydrogen will leak more quickly than oxygen. REASON & EXPLANATION: According to graham law of diffusion, the rate of diffusions of certain gas is inversely proportional to its molecular mass and density. i. e. smaller the molecular mass and density,greater will be the rate of diffusion and vice versa. As the hydrogen is lighter than the oxygen, so the molecular mass and density is lower than that of oxygen, so the pressure in a gas cylinder containing hydrogen will leak more quickly than if it is containing oxygen.
Is Africa larger than or smaller than US?
