Atoms of element X have 12 times the mass of atoms of oxygen, and atoms of oxygen have 16 times the mass of atoms of hydrogen. What is the mass of atoms of element X on a scale on which atoms of hydrogen have a mass of 1? A. 16/12
B. 12/16
С. 12 x 16
D. 16-12
E. 1216

C. 12 × 16

Explanation:

Let mH be the mass of atoms of hydrogen and mO be the mass of atoms of oxygen.  The atoms of oxygen have 16 times the mass of atoms of hydrogen. That is,

mO = 16 mH   [1]

Let mX be the mass of the atoms of X. Atoms of element X have 12 times the mass of atoms of oxygen. That is,

mX = 12 mO   [2]

If we substitute [1] in [2], we get

mX = 12 × 16 mH

If mH is 1, we get,

mX = 12 × 16 × 1

mX = 12 × 16

a small container that holds a source of energy a solar cell that captures light energy and converts it into electricity a voltaic cell that uses the oxidation of a fuel to produce electricity

explanation:

if the temperature drops and becomes cool

then the atmosphere can be freezing as the water vapor in the air is at maximum (100%) and can be severely cold

also can be snowing lightly as the moisture in the air will start to solidify

and btw this is not chemistry but
