Answer:
44 grams/mole
Explanation:
<u>If 1 mol of XO₂ contains the same number of atoms as 60 g of XO3, what is the molar mass of XO₂?</u>
<u></u>
60 grams of XO3 is one mole XO3, since it has the same number of atoms as 1 mole of XO2.
Let c be the molar mass of X. The molar mass of XO3 is comprised of:
X: c
3O: 3 x 16 = 48
Total molar mass of XO3 is = <u>48 + c</u>
We know that the molar mass of XO3 = 60 g/mole, so:
48 + c = 60 g/mole
c = 12 g/mole
The molar mass of XO2 would be:
1 X = 12
2 O = 32
Molar mass = 44 grams/mole, same as carbon dioxide. Carbon's molar mass is 12 grams.

Answer: ³²P
Explanation:
The radionuclide in question is known as Phosphorus-32. It is an isotope of Phosphorus that is radioactive and has one more neutron than the normal phosphorus does.
Phosphorus does not exist in nature and is created artificially by bombarding the normal stable phosphorus with neutrons. Due to its radioactive nature, it has proven to be useful in the medical industry where it has been used to detect eye tumors as well as in treating some diseases.
Electrons and protons because they are essentially always the same
