Answer:
x = 33.52 amu
Explanation:
It is given that,
Isotope A has a mass of 34 amu and an abundance of 52%, isotope B has a mass of 33 amu and an abundance of 48%.
Let x is the average atomic mass of this element. It can be calculated as follows :
So, the average atomic mass of this element is 33.52 amu.
Answer:
Explanation:
25.3% Mg
74.7% Cl
First step: change % to g
25.3g Mg
74.7g Cl
Second step: calculate g/mol of each compound. You can do this by using the atomic mass.
Third step: determine the lowest number and divide everything by it. Of the result, extract whole number only.
Fourth step: Write each compound with their respective number below.
This empirical formula should be:
