Homework Equations
How to prove M = 2.016 X D (M = 2D).if the atomic weight of Hydrogen is 1.008
The Attempt at a Solution
As I know,
D = the mass of one molecule of gas / the mass of one molecule of H2
= the mass of one molecule of gas / the mass of 2 molecules of H atoms
= 1/2 X the mass of one molecule of gas / the mass of one H atom
= 1/2 X the molecular mass of gas
= 1/2 X M
If I put the value in the equation above I get
D = one molecule of gas / 2 molecules of H atoms
= 2.016 / 1.008 X 1.008
= 2.016 / 2.016
= 1
