Answer:
The percent isotopic abundance of C- 12 is 98.93 %
The percent isotopic abundance of C- 13 is 1.07 %
Explanation:
we know there are two naturally occurring isotopes of carbon, C-12 (12u) and C-13 (13.003355)
First of all we will set the fraction for both isotopes
X for the isotopes having mass 13.003355
1-x for isotopes having mass 12
The average atomic mass of carbon is 12.0107
we will use the following equation,
13.003355x + 12 (1-x) = 12.0107
13.003355x + 12 - 12x = 12.0107
13.003355x- 12x = 12.0107 -12
1.003355x = 0.0107
x= 0.0107/1.003355
x= 0.0107
0.0107 × 100 = 1.07 %
1.07 % is abundance of C-13 because we solve the fraction x.
now we will calculate the abundance of C-12.
(1-x)
1-0.0107 =0.9893
0.9893 × 100= 98.93 %
98.93 % for C-12.
Answer:
Living organisms present in soil include archaea, bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi, algae, protozoa, and a wide variety of larger soil fauna, including springtails, mites, nematodes, earthworms, ants, insects that spend all or part of their life underground, and larger organisms such as burrowing rodents.
Explanation:
The much of the sample that would remain unchanged after 140 seconds is 2.813 g
Explanation
Half life is time taken for the quantity to reduce to half its original value.
if the half life for Scandium is 35 sec, then the number of half life in 140 seconds
=140 sec/ 35 s = 4 half life
Therefore 45 g after first half life = 45 x1/2 =22.5 g
22.5 g after second half life = 22.5 x 1/2 =11.25 g
11.25 g after third half life = 11.25 x 1/2 = 5.625 g
5.625 after fourth half life = 5.625 x 1/2 = 2.813
therefore 2.813 g of Scandium 47 remains unchanged.
Answer:
- <u><em>No, I would not consider a metal to be a plasma because plasma is just another state of matter, and the copper wire is in solid state.</em></u>
Explanation:
Metal is not a state of matter. Metals can be solid or liquid (molten) depending on their melting point and the temperature at which they are.
Plasma is a state of matter, similar to gas, but it is reached only at very high temperatures like in the Sun. The particles in plasma state are not neutral atoms or molecules but negatively charged ions and electrons.
The copper wire is yet a solid, thus it cannot be considered a plasma.
Metals can be in plasma state only if the temperature is too high, like the temperatures in the stars. In fact, the metals in the Sun and other hotter stars are in plasma state.
Explanation:
The periodic table is a table that arranges elements based on their atomic numbers into groups and periods.
The groups are the vertical arrangement of elements. All elements in a group share similar chemical properties because they have the same number of elements in their valence shell. The periodic table groups are:
Group Other names
1A or 1 Alkali metals
IIA or 2 Alkaline earth metals
IIIA or 3 Boron family
VIA or 6 Chalcogens
VIIA or 17 Halogens
O-18 Inert elements
IIIB-IIB Transition elements
There are 18 vertical columns divided into 8 tall groups or main groups which are 1A to O. The short groups or subgroups are from numerals 1B to VIII.
The periodic table can be divided into four blocks based on the type of sublevels their valence electrons occupy.
- Group IA and IIA constitute the s-block
- Group IIIA to O constitute the p-block
- The transition elements makes up the d-block
- The lanthanides and actinides makes up the f-block
