Answer:
The atomic mass of the boron atom would be <em>10.135</em>
Explanation:
This is generally known as relative atomic mass.
Relative atomic mass or atomic weight is a physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass of 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. Since both quantities in the ratio are masses, the resulting value is dimensionless; hence the value is said to be relative and does not have a unit.
<em>Note that the relative atomic mass of atoms is not always a whole number because of it being isotopic in nature.</em>
- <em>Divide each abundance by 100 then multiply by atomic mass</em>
- <em>Do that for each isotope, then add the two result. Thus</em>
Relative atomic mass of Boron = (18.5/100 x 11) + (81/100 x 10)
= 2.035 + 8.1
= 10.135
Answer:
Most plastic is chemically inert and will not react chemically with other substances -- you can store alcohol, soap, water, acid or gasoline in a plastic container without dissolving the container itself.
Explanation:
Answer:
Magnesium loses two electrons.
Explanation:
- As clear from the reaction Mg converted from <em>Mg(s) to Mg²⁺</em>, so Mg converted from the oxidation state (0) to (2+).
<em>∴ Mg losses two electrons.</em>
- Cl⁻ remains as it is, so it is considered as a catalyst and neither loss nor gain any electrons.
<em>So, the correct choice is Magnesium loses two electrons.</em>
Answer: E. none of these
