The average atomic mass of the atom that has the following isotopes in the following abundances: 20 10Z 30% , 19 10Z10% , 18 10Z 60% is 18.7.

<h3>How to calculate average atomic mass?</h3>

The average atomic mass of an isotopic element is the weighted average of the atomic masses of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element.

According to this question, the atom has the following isotopes in the following abundances: 20 10Z [30%] = 30/100 × 20 = 6

19 10Z [10%] = 10/100 × 19 = 1.9

18 10Z [60%] = 60/100 × 18 = 10.8

The sum of these masses is the average atomic mass and is calculated as follows:

6 + 1.9 + 10.8 = 18.7

Therefore, the average atomic mass of the atom that has the following isotopes in the following abundances: 20 10Z 30% , 19 10Z10% , 18 10Z 60% is 18.7.

Thermal energy chemical change lab report
natulia [17]

Answer:

This is required answer.

Explanation:

Given that,

Thermal energy chemical change lab report

We know that,

Thermal energy :

When we rise a temperature of any substance then the molecules of substance moves fastly then the heat produced. It is called thermal energy.

Chemical change in the thermal energy  :

When we heat a substance then the thermal energy increases and the molecules of substance moves fastly. That means the chemical bonds are break in reactants due to energy.

In products, The new chemical bonds are create due to energy.

For example ; The coal is burned then produced heats water and change it into steam.

Hence, This is required answer.

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the amount of time it takes for a quantity of radioactive material to decay to one-hal
finlep [7]

Answer: The statement is true

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time taken for half of the total number of atoms in a given sample of the isotope to decay.

For instance

The half-life of radium is 1622 years. This means that if we have 1000 radium atoms at the beginning, then at the end of 1622 years, 500 atoms would have disintegrated, leaving 500 undecayed radium atoms

Thus, the statement is true

14.Which of the following exhibit maximum paramagnetic behaviour – Fe3+ or
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Fe^3+

Explanation:

The electron configuration for Fe^3+ is; 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d5

The electron configuration for Ni^2+ is; 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d8

Now it is pertinent to recall that the 3d sublevel has a maximum occupancy of ten electrons. These ten electrons occupy a set of five degenerate orbitals. Having said that, it is clear that Ni^2+ ion will have two unpaired electrons while Fe^3+ will have five unpaired electrons.

Let us also not forget that paramagnetism has to do with the presence of unpaired electrons. That means that maximum paramagnetism refers to the presence of maximum number of unpaired electrons.

Since Fe^3+ has the greatest number of unpaired electrons among the duo, Fe^3+ will exhibit a maximum paramagnetic behavior.

By what quantity must the heat capacity be divided to obtain the specific heat of that material
masha68 [24]
<span>Heat capacity of an object, is the amount of heat energy or thermal energy (unit: Joule) needed to raise the temperature of the object by 1 degree celsius. Unit of heat capacity is J/°C 

Larger object will surely need larger amount of thermal energy to raise its temperature. If you compare 1 litre of water with 0.5 litre of water, the 1L water will have two times the heat capacity. 

It will be more useful to compare specific heat capacity, because then it is the amount of heat energy or thermal energy (unit: Joule) needed to raise the temperature of 1 unit mass of the object by 1 degree celsius. You can then compare between 1 unit mass of water and 1 unit mass of iron. 
Water has higher specific heat capacity than iron, meaning that you need more energy to heat up 1kg of water, then to heat up 1kg of iron. 

The unit will then be J/(kg °C) or J/(g °C).
