      What is the fraction of the mass of water due to neutrons?

    Answer:

      In water molecule (H2O), number of neutrons = [(number of neutrons in H) x 2 + (number of neutrons in O)] = 0 x 2 + 8=8 (as number of neutrons in H = 0) Mass of 8 neutrons = 8 x 1.00893 = 8.07              ( mass of one neutron = 1.008934) Molar mass of water = 1.008x2+16.0 =18.016u Fraction of mass due to neutrons
