A sample of silicon has an average atomic mass of 28.084amu. In the sample, there are three isotopic forms of silicon. About 92.

22% of silicon atoms are 27.9769amu, which have the mass of 28Si; about 4.68% are 28.9764amu, which have the mass of 29Si, and the isotope 30Si, makes up the remaining 3.10%. Calculate the atomic mass of 30Si. Report your answer with three significant figures

A sample of silicon has an average atomic mass of 28.084amu. In the sample, there are three isotopic forms of silicon. About 92.22% of silicon atoms are 27.9769amu, which have the mass of 28Si; about 4.68% are 28.9764amu, which have the mass of 29Si, and the isotope 30Si, makes up the remaining 3.10%. Calculate the atomic mass of 30Si. Report your answer with three significant figures <u>The percentage abundance for  </u><u>isotope </u><u>is 3.09 %.</u>

<h3>What is isotopes?</h3>

Isotopes are two or more atom types that share the same atomic number (number of protons in their nuclei), location in the periodic table, and chemical element but have distinct nucleon numbers (mass numbers) as a result of having a different number of neutrons in their nuclei. Although the chemical properties of each isotope of a given element are nearly identical, they differ in their atomic weights and physical characteristics.

The word "isotope" is derived from the Greek words "isos" and "topos," both of which imply "the same location." As a result, the name refers to the fact that various isotopes of a given element occupy the same spot on the periodic table. Scottish physician and author Margaret Todd first used it in a recommendation in 1913.

Describe the intermolecular forces that must be overcome to convert these substances from a liquid to a gas: (a) SO2, (b) CH3COO
Andre45 [30]
You need to find which intermolecular forces are between the molecules
dipole-dipole,h bonds, etc.
I'm not very good at explaining but this is what my prof said to help us

Identify the class of the molecule or molecules you are given. Are they nonpolar species, ions or
do they have permanent dipoles? Is there only one species or are there two?
In the case of ONE species (i.e., a pure substance), the intermolecular forces will be between
molecules of the same type. So if you are dealing with ions, the intermolecular forces will be ION-
ION or IONIC. If you are dealing with dipoles, then the intermolecular forces will be DIPOLE-
DIPOLE. If you are dealing with nonpolar species, the intermolecular forces will be DISPERSION
or VAN DER WAALS or INDUCED DIPOLE-INDUCED DIPOLE (the last three are desciptions
of the same interaction; regrettably we cannot call them nonpolar-nonpolar!).
In the case of TWO species (i.e., a mixture), the intermolecular forces will be between molecules of
one type with molecules of the second type. For example, ION-DIPOLE interactions exist between
ions dissolved in a dipolar fluid such as water.

Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by 162. kJ during a certain chemical reaction, w
puteri [66]

Answer:

= -356KJ

<em>therefore, the reaction where heat is released is exothermic reaction since theΔH is negative</em>

Explanation:

given that enthalpy of gaseous reactants decreases by 162KJ and workdone is -194KJ

then,

change in enthalpy (ΔH) = -162( released energy)

work(w) = -194KJ

change in enthalpy is said to be negative if the heat is evolved during the reaction while heat change(ΔH) is said to be positive if the heat required for the reaction occurs.

At constant pressure the change in enthalpy is given as

ΔH = ΔU + PΔV

ΔU = change in energy

ΔV = change in volume

P = pressure

w =  -pΔV

therefore,

ΔH = ΔU -W

to evaluate  energy change we have,

ΔU =ΔH + W

ΔU = -162+ (-194KJ)

= -356KJ

<em>therefore, the reaction where heat is released is exothermic reaction since theΔH is negative</em>
