There are TWO isotopes of chlorine. Under normal conditions, chlorine exists as diatomic molecule, Cl₂. The mass of the Cl₂ mole

cule is the sum of masses of the two atoms in the molecule. The mass spectrum of Cl₂ has three peaks, as shown below. From this data, what is the mass of the heavier isotope of chlorine (in amu)?
Peak 1- 69.938 amu
Peak 2- 71.935 amu

The the mass of the heavier isotope of chlorine (in amu) is 73.932 amu.

<h3>What are isotopes?</h3>

The term isotopes refers atoms that have the same atomic number but different mass number. We must know that all these atoms belong to the same element an differ only in the number of neutrons present in the atom of the element. Hence isotopes are different atoms of the same element hence they have the same chemical properties or reactivity. The mass spectrum is able to show the masses of each of the isotopes according to their order of relative abundance in nature.

Looking at the peaks, we know that the heaviest isotope is the one whose mass will have the highest peak as shown in the mass spectrum of the element as shown. Thus, the the mass of the heavier isotope of chlorine (in amu) is 73.932 amu. The mass spectrum of element also shows this fact.

Butane C4H10 (g),(Hf = –125.7), combusts in the presence of oxygen to form CO2 (g) (Delta.Hf = –393.5 kJ/mol), and H2O(g) (Delta
shusha [124]

Answer: The enthalpy of combustion, per mole, of butane is -2657.4 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2C_4H_{10}(g)+13O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)

The expression for enthalpy change is,

\Delta H=[n\times H_f_{products}]-[n\times H_f_{reactants}]

Putting the values we get :

\Delta H=[8\times H_f_{CO_2}+10\times H_f_{H_2O}]-[2\times H_f_{C_4H_{10}+13\times H_f_{O_2}}]

\Delta H=[(8\times -393.5)+(10\times -241.82)]-[(2\times -125.7)+(13\times 0)]

\Delta H=-5314.8kJ

2 moles of butane releases heat = 5314.8 kJ

1 mole of butane release heat = \frac{5314.8}{2}\times 1=2657.4kJ

Thus enthalpy of combustion per mole of butane is -2657.4 kJ

An iron has a net charge of 3+. If this job has 8 protons, how many electrons does it have
kati45 [8]

Answer:

5 electrons

Explanation:

When an atom loses are gain the electrons ions are formed.

There are two types of ions.

Anion

Cation

1 = Anion

It is formed when an atom gain the electrons. when atom gain electron negative charge is created on atom. For example.

X + e⁻ → X⁻

2= Cation

It is formed when an atom loses the electrons. when atom lose electron positive charge is created on atom. For example.

X → X⁺ + e⁻

When an atom loses three electrons +3 charge is created. If this atom have 8 protons it means there were 8 electrons too. When it lost three electrons then remaining number of electrons are 5.

X → X³⁺ + 3e⁻

12 Chlorine gas is bubbled into aqueous potassium iodide.
ivanzaharov [21]

the answer is a because the positive cations are attracted to the negative cathode. when the positive ions get to the cathode they pick up an electron and this produces normal sodium.
