If the e/m value of electron is 1.7588 x 10^11 C/kg, then what would be the mass of electron in grams (charge on electron is 1.6022 x 10^-19 coulombs)?

Correct answer: C. 9.1095 x 10^-28 g

  • A. 9.1095 x 10^-31 g
  • B. 91.095 x 10^-31 g
  • C. 9.1095 x 10^-28 g
  • D. 0.919095 x 10^-33 g

Explanation

If e/m is equal to 1.7588x10^11 and the charge on an electron is 1.6 x10^-19 then the mass can be calculated as: 1.7588x10^11=1.6x10^-19/m m-9.109 x 10^-31kg. In g, 9.1x10^-28 g As it is numerical, it can have only one possible answer.

About Atomic Structure

Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
