Why do 10 oxygen atoms weigh more than 10 carbon atoms?

Because an oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8 neutrons and 8 electrons. A carbon atom has only 6 of each. So 1 oxygen atom weighs more than 1 carbon atom and therefore 10 oxygen atoms weigh more than 10 carbon atoms.


What is the word root of an organic compound containing more than 50 carbon atoms?

The root word for an organic compound with more than 50 carbon atoms is "pentaconta".


Why does hexadecane burn with a smokier flame than octane?

Hexadecane contains more carbon atoms than octane, leading to a higher carbon-to-hydrogen ratio. This higher carbon content results in more soot and a smokier flame when hexadecane burns compared to octane, which has fewer carbon atoms and burns more cleanly.


Why is there so much more in a mole of sugar than carbon?

Sugar is composed of 22 atoms of hydrogen, 12 atoms of carbon as well as 11 atoms of oxygen


What Lipids have more what then they do oxygen atoms?

Lipids contain more carbon and hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms. This is because lipids are comprised mainly of hydrocarbon chains, which are made up of carbon and hydrogen atoms, with only a small amount of oxygen.


Are there more carbon atoms in 48g of CO2 than in 12 grams of diamond?

There are more carbon atoms in 48 grams of CO2 than in 12 grams of diamond


Why does one mole of carbon atoms have a smaller mass than one mole of sulfur atoms?

For the same reason that one dozen pencils has a smaller mass than one dozen bricks. Each atom of carbon weighs less than each atom of sulfur, and a mole of each has the same number of atoms, so a mole S will weigh more than a mole C.


What are two atoms that are heavier than carbon?

Two atoms that are heavier than carbon are nitrogen and oxygen. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 and a higher atomic mass than carbon, while oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and is even heavier than nitrogen.


Why are diamonds so hard but carbon is not?

Although there are made from the same element (carbon), the chemical connections between diamonds atoms are several times more strong than those of carbon atoms.


Is C6H14 a cycloalkane?

No. It is a normal alkane. In a cycloalkane, the number of hydrogen atoms cannot be more than twice the number of carbon atoms.


Which has more atoms 10 moles of carbon or 10 moles of calcium?

10 moles of calcium has more atoms than 10 moles of carbon, as calcium has a higher atomic number and atomic weight compared to carbon. Each mole contains Avogadro's number of atoms, so the element with the larger atomic weight will have more atoms in 10 moles.


What is bigger a sodium atom or a carbon atom?

A carbon Atom. Sodium Atoms Weigh Less Than Carbon Atoms And Also They Are Smaller Overall.
