The distance between a hydrogen atom (m = 1.0u) and a chloride atom (m = 35.5u) in the HCl molecule is 1.27×10-10m. How far from the hydrogen atom is the center of mass of the molecule?
Answered by Damon
seesaw :)

1 x = 35.5(1.27*10^-10 - x)

36.5 x = 45.1 * 10^-10

x = 1.24 * 10^-10

in other words right beside the Cl atom
