Calculate the packing fraction of Ar^(40...

Calculate the packing fraction of `Ar^(40)` (isotopic weight of `Ar = 39.96238)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Isotopic atomic weight of `Ar^(40) = 39.96238`
Mass number of `Ar^(40) = 40.00`
`:.` Packing fraction ` = (39.96238 - 40)/(40) xx 10^(4)`
`= (-0.03762 xx 10^(4))/(40) = -9.405`
