Blood serum is typically about 0.0044 m in k+ (aq). calculate the mass of the potassium ions in 4,785. ml of blood serum. the molar mass of potassium is 39.10 g/mol

0.823 g.

Explanation:

M = (no. of moles of K⁺)/(Volume of the solution (L).

∵ no. of moles of K⁺ = (mass/molar mass) of K⁺.

∴ M = (mass/molar mass) of K⁺/(Volume of the solution (L).

M = 0.0044 M.

Volume of the solution = 4785.0 mL = 4.785 L.

mass of K⁺ = ??? g.

molar mass of K⁺ = 39.01 g/mol.

∴ mass of K⁺ = (M)((molar mass of K⁺)(volume of the solution (L)) = (0.0044 M)(39.10 g/mol)(4.785 L) = 0.823 g.

answer is: nuclear fusion produces elements that are heavier than helium.

nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy.  

for example, fusion of hydrogen atoms at the sun.  

this fusion nuclear reaction is in the inner core of the sun and hydrogen (atomic number 1) is conveted into helium (atomic number 2).  

the inner core is the central region of the sun and all solar energy is produced in the core by nuclear fusion.
