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

How long will it take for a 750 mg sample of radium with a half life of 15 days to decay to exactly 68mg?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

52 da  

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever a question asks you, "How long to reach a certain concentration?" or something similar, you must use the appropriate integrated rate law expression.

The i<em>ntegrated rate law for a first-order reaction </em>is  

ln([A₀]/[A] ) = kt

Data:

[A]₀ = 750 mg

 [A] =    68 mg

t_ ½ =   15 da

Step 1. Calculate the value of the rate constant.

 t_½ = ln2/k     Multiply each side by k

kt_½ = ln2         Divide each side by t_½

      k = ln2/t_½

         = ln2/15

         = 0.0462 da⁻¹

Step 2. Calculate the time

ln(750/68) = 0.0462t

         ln11.0 = 0.0462t

            2.40 = 0.0462t     Divide each side by 0.0462

                   t = 52 da

A 1.42-g sample of a pure compound with formula m2so4 was dissolved in water and treated with an ex- cess of aqueous calcium chl
solong [7]

The reaction between m_{2}SO_{4} with calcium chloride can be shown as-m_{2}SO_{4}+CaCl_{2}→CaSO_{4}↓+2mCl. The molecular weight of CaSO_{4} is 136.14g. The weight of sulfate ion is 96.06g. The molecular weight of m_{2}SO_{4} = (2×m + 96.06). From the reaction we can see that 1 mole of calcium chloride reacts with 1 molesm_{2}SO_{4} to produce 1 mole of calcium sulfate. Now 1.36g of calcium sulfate is equivalent to 1.36/136.14=9.989×10^{-3} moles of calcium sulfate.

Thus, 9.989×10^{-3} moles of m_{2}SO_{4} reacts in this reaction.

Let assume the atomic mass of m is x thus the molecular weight of m_{2}SO_{4} is 2x+96.

So we may write 9.989×10^{-3}× (2x+96) =1.42

Or, 2x + 96 = 142.146

Or, 2x = 46.146

Or, x = 23.073

Thus the atomic mass of m is 23.073. The atom (m) is sodium (Na).

Se requieren preparar 1500 ml de una solución al 55% en masa de hidróxido de calcio, sabiendo que la densidad de dicha solución
Masja [62]

Respuesta:

968 g Ca(OH)₂

Explicación:

Paso 1: Calcular la masa de solución

Tenemos 1500 mL de una solución cuya densidad es 1.17 g/mL, es decir, 1 mL de solución tiene una masa de 1.17 g.

1500 mL × 1.17 g/mL = 1.76 × 10³ g

Paso 2: Calcular la masa de hidróxido de calcio en 1.76 × 10³ g de solución

La solución tiene una concentración de 55% en masa de hidróxido de calcio, es decir, cada 100 gramos de solución hay 55 gramos de hidróxido de calcio.

1.76 × 10³ g Solución × 55 g Ca(OH)₂/100 g Solución = 968 g Ca(OH)₂

Does an astronaut have more mass on earth then space? why or why not?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

No, his mass remains the same no matter where he is in the universe.

But then again the moon has less gravitational pull, therefore your weight and mass will be smaller in space and on the moon than on earth

I hope this was helpful! ;)
