Stupid problem
The first problem on our homework for tomorrow in NUEN is this:
I'm thinking, hmm, 1 amu and 238 amu (respectively)? But then, is that really an estimate?
Professor notsoP says to divide 1 and 238 by 6.02x10^23 each. He admits that estimate isn't exactly the best word for the problem.
Estimate the mass of the lightest atom hydrogen and the heaviest naturally occuring element uranium.
