If a naturally occurring sample of an unidentified element is found to contain three isotopes (A, B, and C) and consists of 90.5% isotope A (mass number 20), 0.3% isotope B (mass number 21), and 9.3% isotope C (mass number 22), the atomic weight of the element measured from the sample will be greater than 21 amu.

To calculate the average atomic mass, multiply the fraction through the mass number for every isotope, then add them together. Whenever we do mass calculations concerning elements or compounds (combos of elements), we usually use average atomic loads.

For instance, carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon that has six protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus. We name it carbon-14 because the overall range of protons and neutrons within the nucleus also called the mass number, provides up to fourteen (6+8=14).

Together, the quantity of protons and the range of neutrons determine an detail's mass variety. Due to the fact, that an element's isotopes have barely unique mass numbers, the atomic mass is calculated by obtaining the suggested mass numbers for its isotopes.

A plastic bin is found to hold 3.1x10^24 molecules of water.

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 5.1 \ mol \ H_2O}}

Explanation:

To convert from representative particles to moles, Avogadro's Number: 6.02*10²³, which tells us the number of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance.

We can use it in a ratio.

\frac {6.02*10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2O}

Multiply by the given number of molecules.

3.1*10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O*\frac {6.02*10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2O}

Flip the ratio so the molecules of water cancel out.

3.1*10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O*\frac {1 \ mol \ H_2O}{6.02*10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}

3.1*10^{24} *\frac {1 \ mol \ H_2O}{6.02*10^{23} }

\frac {3.1*10^{24} \ mol \ H_2O}{6.02*10^{23} }

Divide.

5.14950166113 \ mol \ H_2O

The original number of molecules has 2 significant figures: 3 and 1, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the tenth place. The 4 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 1.

5.1 \ mol \ H_2O

There are about 5.1 moles of water in 3.1*10²⁴ molecules of water.

Water flows from the bottom of a large tank where the pressure is 100 psig through a pipe to a turbine which produces 5.82 hp. T
Marianna [84]

Explanation:

Bernoulli equation for the flow between bottom of the tank and pipe exit point is as follows.

   \frac{p_{1}}{\gamma} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2g} + z_{1} = \frac{p_{2}}{\gamma} + \frac{V^{2}_{2}}{2g} + z_{2} + h_{f} + h_{t}

    \frac{(100 \times 144)}{62.43} + 0 + h[tex] = [tex]\frac{(50 \times 144)}{(62.43)} + \frac{(70)^{2}}{2(32.2)} + 0 + 40 + 60

                          h = \frac{(50 \times 144)}{(62.43)} + \frac{(70)^{2}}{2(32.2)} + 40 + 60 - \frac{(100 \times 144)}{(62.43)}

                            = 60.76 ft

Hence, formula to calculate theoretical power produced by the turbine is as follows.

                                 P = mgh

                                     = 100 \times 60.76

                                     = 6076 lb.ft/s

                                     = 11.047 hp

Efficiency of the turbine will be as follows.

                \eta_{t} = \frac{P_{actual}}{P_{theoretical}} × 100%

                                = \frac{5.82}{11.047} \times 100%                      

                                = 52.684%

Thus, we can conclude that the efficiency of the turbine is 52.684%.
