The answer to this question is Hydrogen. If you have an periodic table, you will see that the only element with a mass close to 1 is Hydrogen, and that is because 1 atom of Hydrogen weighs 1 Atomic Mass Unit.

---------------------------------------

The first answer is not correct !

The Atomic Mass unit is 1/12 from the atomic mass of the isotope 12C in his ground state.

What is the percentage mass of oxygen in carbon dioxide?

The proportion by number of atoms in carbon dioxide is 1:2. The atomic weight of carbon is 12.011 and the atomic weight of oxygen is 15.9994. Therefore, the proportion by mass of carbon to oxygen in carbon dioxide is 12.011/(2 X 15.9994) = 0.37536 or 37.536 %, to the justified number of significant digits.

Radioactive substances can emit alpha particles, gamma radiation (gamma rays) and beta radiation (beta particles). What they do not emit is delta radiation.It causes transmutation.It has a mass of 4 amus.


Is the product water-based?

Yes, the product is water-based.


What are the main differences between oil-based and latex-based paints?

Oil-based paints use oil as a binder, while latex-based paints use water. Oil-based paints are more durable and provide a smoother finish, but they take longer to dry and have a strong odor. Latex-based paints dry faster, are easier to clean up with water, and have less odor, but may not be as durable as oil-based paints.


What 3 advantages of using corn-based plastics instead of oil-based plastics?

Using corn-based plastics reduces reliance on fossil fuels, which helps in decreasing greenhouse gas emissions. Corn-based plastics are biodegradable and compostable, resulting in less environmental impact and reducing plastic pollution. Additionally, using corn-based plastics can promote sustainable agricultural practices and support local farmers.
