Which is not a characteristic of a compound?

1 answer:

4 0

The second answer is not a characteristic because compounds don’t vary from sample to sample. For example NaCl (table salt) is indistinguishable from sample to sample.

Which half reaction can occur at the anode in a voltaic cell

luda_lava [24]

Oxidation is the half reaction that can occur at the anode in a voltaic cell.

Explanation:

In electrodes which is metal strip in voltaic cell the reactions occurs. The two electrodes placed one in each half-cell. The reduction reaction occurs at cathode and oxidation occurs at anode.

A half reaction is either the oxidation or reduction reaction component of a redox reaction. A half reaction is obtained by considering the change in oxidation states of individual substances involved in the redox reaction. Half-reactions are often used as a method of balancing redox reactions.

In an oxidation half reaction, an atom loses electron(s). When an element is oxidized it loses a specific number of electrons.

An element has an average atomic mass of 1.008 amu. It consists of two isotopes , one having a mass of 1.007 amu, and one having

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The most abundant isotope is 1.007 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Average atomic mass = 1.008 amu

Mass of first isotope = 1.007 amu

Mass of 2nd isotope = 2.014 amu

Most abundant isotope = ?

Solution:

First of all we will set the fraction for both isotopes

X for the isotopes having mass 2.014 amu

1-x for isotopes having mass 1.007 amu

The average atomic mass is 1.008 amu

we will use the following equation,

2.014x + 1.007 (1-x) = 1.008

2.014x + 1.007 - 1.007 x = 1.008

2.014x - 1.007x = 1.008 - 1.007

1.007 x = 0.001

x= 0.001/ 1.007

x= 0.0009

0.0009 × 100 = 0.09 %

0.09 % is abundance of isotope having mass 2.014 amu because we solve the fraction x.

now we will calculate the abundance of second isotope.

(1-x)

1-0.0009 = 0.9991

0.9991 × 100= 99.91%

The atmosphere of the planet Mars is 95.3% carbon dioxide, 2.6% nitrogen, 1.9% argon, with the remaining fraction being traces o

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Mean Partial pressure of Nitrogen in Mars' atmosphere = 15.86 Pa

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law of Partial Pressure, the total pressure exerted by a mixture of ideal gases (that do not react together) is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases that make up the mixture. It goes further to explain that the partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gases is equal to its mole fraction of that gas multipled by the total pressure exerted by the mixture of gases.

Total Pressure exerted by the mixture of gases in the atmosphere on Mars = Mean atmospheric pressure on Mars = 610 Pa

Partial pressure of Nitrogen = (mole fraction or mole percentage of Nitrogen in the atmosphere) × (total pressure exerted by all the gases in the atmosphere)

Mole percentage of Nitrogen in the atmosphere of Mars = 2.6%

Partial pressure of Nitrogen = 2.6% × 610 = 15.86 Pa

Mean Partial pressure of Nitrogen in Mars' atmosphere = 15.86 Pa

Hope this Helps!!!
