Answer: The atomic weight of silver is 107.87 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope silver-107  = 106.91 amu

% abundance of isotope silver -107 = 51.84% = \frac{51.84}{100}=0.5184

Mass of isotope silver-109 = 108.90 amu

% abundance of isotope silver-109  = 48.16% = \frac{48.16}{100}=0.4816

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(106.91\times 0.5184)+(108.90\times 0.4816)]

A=107.87amu

Thus atomic weight of silver is 107.87 amu

Water molecules form hydrogen bonds to help in the process of water transport. Which property of water is described?
AlekseyPX
The property of water which is described in the lines above is <u>cohesion.
</u>It refers to the fact that water molecules stick to other water molecules, i. e. to themselves, as opposed to sticking to another material, which happens with adhesion. Water and capillaries don't have any connection.<u>

What mass of melamine, c3n3(nh2)3, will be obtained from 113.0 kg of urea, co(nh2)2, if the yield of the overall reaction is 73.
creativ13 [48]

The balanced equation for the reaction is:

6 HNCO(l) → C3N3(NH2)3(l) + 3 CO2(g)

Convert amount of urea from kg to moles

Molar Mass of urea = 60.06 g/mol so, 113 kg urea contains

113 kg / 60.06 = 1.88 mol urea

From balanced equation 6 moles of urea yields only 1 melamine, so divide the moles of urea by 6. 

1.88 / 6 = 0.313 kmol melamine

Now multiply 0.313 with molar mass of melamine that is 126 g/mol

126 x 0.313 = 39.438 kg

Yield of overall reaction is 73% so multiply 39.438 with 0.73

<span>39.438 x 0.73 = 28.799 kg is the answer</span>
