We can define atomic mass the total of number of protons and number of neutrons in an atom or isotope.
<span>So when an isotope of yttrium has 39 protons and 59 neutrons, its atomic mass is equal to;
number of protons + number of neutrons = 39 + 59 = 98</span>

Will a precipitate of magnesium fluoride form when 300. mL of 1.1 × 10 –3 M MgCl 2 are added to 500. mL of 1.2 × 10 –3 M NaF? [K
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

No precipitate is formed.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of magnesium fluoride:

MgF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Mg^{2+}+2F^-

And the undergoing chemical reaction:

MgCl_2+2NaF\rightarrow MgF_2+2NaCl

We need to compute the yielded moles of magnesium fluoride, but first we need to identify the limiting reactant for which we compute the available moles of magnesium chloride:

n_{MgCl_2}=0.3L*1.1x10^{-3}mol/L=3.3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2

Next, the moles of magnesium chloride consumed by the sodium fluoride:

n_{MgCl_2}^{consumed}=0.5L*1.2x10^{-3}molNaF/L*\frac{1molCaCl_2}{2molNaF} =3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2

Thus, less moles are consumed by the NaF, for which the moles of formed magnesium fluoride are:

n_{MgF_2}=3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2*\frac{1molMgF_2}{1molMgCl_2}=3x10^{-4}molMgF_2

Next, since the magnesium fluoride to magnesium and fluoride ions is in a 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratio, the concentrations of such ions are:

[Mg^{2+}]=\frac{3x10^{-4}molMg^{+2}}{(0.3+0.5)L} =3.75x10^{-4}M

[F^-]=\frac{2*3x10^{-4}molMg^{+2}}{(0.3+0.5)L} =7.5x10^{-4}M

Thereby, the reaction quotient is:

Q=(3.75x10^{-4})(7.5x10^{-4})^2=2.11x10^{-10}

In such a way, since Q<Ksp we say that the ions tend to be formed, so no precipitate is formed.

Regards.

7) Explain how tsunamis are formed. How do tsunamis change the surface of the Earth?
antiseptic1488 [7]
A tsunami is a series of waves generated in an ocean or other body of water by a disturbance such as an earthquake, landslide, volcanic eruption, or meteorite impact. The picture at the left shows how an earthquake can generate a tsunami in the overlying water.

By washing away large surfaces of land and depositing it in a different area. Also does damage to structures and deposits salt into the soil.
