Naturally occurring element X exists in three isotopic forms: X-28 (27.979 amu, 92.21% abundance), X-29 (28.976 amu 4.70% abunda

bezimeni [28]

Answer: The average atomic mass of X is 28.09 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$ .....(1)

For isotope 1:

Mass of isotope 1 = 27.979 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 92.21 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.9212

For isotope 2:

Mass of isotope 2 = 28.976 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = 4.70 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.0470

For isotope 3:

Mass of isotope 3 = 29.974 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 3 = 3.09 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 3 = 0.0309

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Average atomic mass of X}=[(27.979\times 0.9212)+(28.976\times 0.0470)+(29.974\times 0.0309)]$

$\text{Average atomic mass of X}=28.09amu$

Hence, the average atomic mass of X is 28.09 amu

Which of the following is a mixture? Water (H2O), Gold, or Kool-Aid

babymother [125]

Sugar is an example of a compound, while koolaid is an example of a homogeneous mixture (more specifically, a solution). A compound is a combination of 2 or more different kinds of atoms chemically bonded in a set ratio. A mixture is a combination of 2 or more substances.

answer is koolaid is a mixture

What happens to the composition of an atom to cause it to become positively or negatively charged?

cupoosta [38]

The addition and subtraction of negatively charged electrons can easily change an atom’s charge, because they perpetually spin in valence shells outside the nucleus. It is easier for a neighboring atom to share or steal an electron rather than a positively charged proton, which is found in the nucleus. It requires a strong energy input to split a proton free from other protons and neutrons. thus, the atoms lose or gain electrons from neighboring ones and become what is known as "ions". Hope it helped!

Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and elemental sodium (Na)

Olegator [25]

Answer:

If the question is which can make a buffer, then NH3, NH4Cl should be correct. Because Ammonium (NH4) is conjugate acid of NH3 so they can form an equilibrium which is basically a buffer whose purpose is to resist pH change.
