How much does beanium weigh?

Claim- beanium weighs about 0.45 g per bean

Reasoning -  we began by separating all the different kind of beans and setting them aside and then we began to weigh them all in their groups as a whole. Then we got the weight and divided it by however many beans there were.  once we got the mass and average mass we figured out the percentages. After that we were able to multiply the averages mass by the percentages and then add them together and divide them by 100 to get a relative mass of a bean. 

Evidence - Limium|Mass= 7.1 g/ Avg= 1.42 g ( 5 beans) 10%
                   Kidneyum|Mass= 8.5 g/ Avg= 0.53 g ( 15 beans) 30%
                   Peagen| Mass= 7.1 g/ Avg= 0.24 g (30 beans) 60%
         (1.42g)(10%)+(0.53g)(30%)+(0.24)(60%)/100= 0.45 g

Answer is 0.45 g

1) Recently we have been diving more and more into the period table conducting labs on reactivity of elements. 2) recently I have learned how to label the periodic table, I have learned about alkali metals as well as alkali earth metals, as well as the development of the period table 3) I am planning to continue using flash cards and quizzing myself on material we’ve taken notes on to prepare myself for land and tests

exploring the chemist's Dozen, The Mole

1. GQ- Do average mass of different beans really equal a standard quantity? 2. During our investigation we gathered several different beans and we counted them out , weighed them, calculated the average mass, then we calculated the relative mass lastly. 3. in our investigation we decided our answer was yes because all the beans masses equaled a standard quantity because the count of beans were around the same number (20). To calculate relative mass you have to divide all the beans over the smallest beans  in this case it was all beans over lentils even lentils/ lentils This models the mole because although we had around the same count of beans in the end our masses were all different from each others. a mole is essentially different molar masses but containing the same number of particles in this case same amount of beans but different masses.
