There are 2 isotopes of the fictional element Nz: Isotope 51 and Isotope 55. The average atomic mass of the fictional element Nz

is 52.21 amu.
What is the percent abundance of Isotope 51?


What is the percent abundance of Isotope 55?


If we had 63 atoms of element Nz (and remember you can't have just half of an atom):


How many of those atoms would likely be Isotope 51?


How many of those atoms would likely be Isotope 55?

The percentage abundance of Nz- 51 and Nz- 55 are 69.8 % and 30.2% respectively.

<h3>What is the percentage abundance of the isotopes?</h3>

We know that an isotope of an element has to do with atoms that have the same atomic number but the atomic masses of the atoms does differ. In this case, we have two isotopes Nz - 51 and Nz -55. We have the relative atomic mass of the elements as  52.21 amu.

Let the percentage abundance of Nz - 51 be x and the percentage abundance of Nz -55 be 1 - x.

52.21 = 51x + 55(1 - x)

52.21 = 51x + 55 - 55x

52.21  - 55 = 51x   - 55x

-2.79 = -4x

x = 0.698

Thus;

Percentage abundance of Nz - 51  = 0.698 or 69.8 %

Percentage abundance of Nz - 55 = 1 - 0.698 or 30.2 %

If I have 63 atoms

Number with isotope Nz - 51  =  0.698 * 63 = 44 atoms

Number with isotope Nz - 55 = 0.302 * 63 = 19 atoms

AlekseyPX

Answer: similar, energy

Explanation: (edmentum answer) Several of the elements in period 5 have electron configurations with only one electron in the 5s sublevel. That suggests that the next sublevel that electrons typically fill, 4d, is not much higher in energy.

A dunk tank hold 30,533 moles of water? How many grams of water are in the tank?
liubo4ka [24]

The mass of water in the tank, given the data from the question is 549594 g

<h3> Description of mole </h3>

The mole of a substance is related to it's mass and molar mass according to the following equation:

Mole = mass / molar mass

<h3>How to determine the mass of water in the tank</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Mole of water = 30533 moles
  • Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol
  • Mass of water = ?

The mass of the water can be obtained as follow:

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of water = 30533 × 18

Mass of water = 549594 g

Vanillin (used to flavor vanilla ice cream and other foods) is the substance whose aroma the human nose detects in the smallest
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Cost to supply enough vanillin is 3.2\$

Explanation:

Threshold limit of vanillin in air is 2.0\times 10^{-11}g per litre means there should be 2.0\times 10^{-11}g of vanillin in 1L of air to detect aroma of vanillin.

1ft^{3}=28.32L

So, 5.0\times 10^{7}ft^{3}=(5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)L

So amount of vanillin should be present to detect = (2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)g

As cost of 50 g vanillin is 112\$ therefore cost of  (2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)gvanillin = (2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32\times 112)\$ = 3.2\$
