The distance between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom in the co molecule is how far from the carbon atom is the center of mass of the molecule?

Sagot :

Answer:

1.12x10-10 or 0.63 ewan

Explanation:

Correct option is C)

The distance of centre of mass from carbon atom is,

xcm=m1+m2m1x1+m2x2

=12+1612×0+16×1.1

=0.63A˚

Thus, the centre of mass is 0.63A˚ from carbon atom.

The distance between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom in the co molecule is 0.63

What is the distance?

Distance is the measurement of the farness of two objects from each other.

The distance between the molecules can be calculated by the given formula

[tex]xcm = m_1+m_2m_1\times 1+m_2 \times 2[/tex]

Putting the values in the equation

[tex]xcm = 12+1612 \times 0+16 \times 1.1 = 0.63 A^\circ[/tex]

Thus, the distance between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom in the co molecule is 0.63
