Be sure to answer all parts. the average atomic mass of nitrogen is 14.0067. the atomic masses of the two stable isotopes of nit

rogen, 14n and 15n, are 14.003074002 and 15.00010897 amu, respectively. use this information to determine the percent abundance of 14n.

To answe this question, we will assume that the percentage abundance of 14n is y. Since the percentage abundance of 14n + percentage abundance of 15n = 100% = 1
Therefore, percentage abundance of 15n = 1 - y.

Now we know that the average atomic mass of nitrogen is 14.0067
Therefore:
average atomic mass of nitrogen = atomic mass of 14n x its percentage abundance + atomic mass of 14n x its percentage abundance
14.0067 = 14.003074002 y + <span>15.00010897 (1 - y)
</span>14.0067 = 14.003074002 y + 15.00010897 - 15.00010897 y
14.0067 - 15.00010897 = 14.003074002 y  - 15.00010897 y 
<span>0.99703497 y =  0.99340897
</span>
Therefore y = <span> 0.99636

Based on this, the percentage abundance of 14n is </span> 0.99636x100= <span>99.636%
while percentage abundance of 15n = 100% - </span>99.636% = <span>0.364%</span>

When this reaction in equilibrium is heated, a red/brown color persists. what is true about this reaction? 2no2(
dimulka [17.4K]
NO₂ is a brown gas while N₂O₄ is colorless. If heating causes a brown color to persist, then this means that heating causes the reaction to shift backwards and produce NO₂. Therefore, the reaction must be exothermic.

A typical virus is 5x10-6 cm in diameter. if avogadro's number of these virus particles were laid in a row, how many kilometers
Debora [2.8K]
Answer is: line be long 3,011·10¹³ kilometers.
diametar of virus = 5·10⁻⁶ cm ÷ 100000 = 5·10⁻¹¹ km.
line lenght = 5·10⁻¹¹ km · 6,023·10²³.
line lenght = 3,011·10¹³ km.
Avogadro number = 6,023·10²³.
1 cm = 10⁻² m = 10⁻⁵ km.

A 1.000-g sample of lead shot reacted with oxygen to give 1.077 g of product. Calculate the empirical formula of the lead oxide
Evgesh-ka [11]
It mean it consisted of 1 g of lead and 0.077 g of O2.
divide these numbers by molar mas.
1/82=0.012 Pb /0.004 = 3
0.077/16= 0.004 O /0.004 =1
