Answer:

177.277amu

Explanation:

the total occuring isotopes for Hafnium is =6.

First isotope had an atomic weight of 173.940amu

Second isotope =175.941amu

Third isotope =176.943amu

Fourth isotope=177.944amu

Fifth isotope. =178.946amu

sixth isotope .179.947amu

<em>Avera</em><em>ge</em><em> </em><em>ato</em><em>mic</em><em> </em><em>wei</em><em>ght</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Haf</em><em>nium</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>sum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>all</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>atomi</em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>weights</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>iso</em><em>topes</em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>Tota</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>occu</em><em>ring</em><em> </em><em>isotopes</em>

Thus, 173.940amu+175.941amu+176.943amu+177.944amu+178.946amu+179.947amu.= 1063.661amu

Average atomic weight= 1063.661amu /6 = 177.2768333amu

= 177.277amu to 3 decimal places.

What is the charge of a cation?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

A cation has more protons than electrons, consequently giving it a net positive charge. For a cation to form, one or more electrons must be lost, typically pulled away by atoms with a stronger affinity for them.

Which type of relationship exists between Alaskan brown bears and salmon? A. predation B. mutualism C. competition D. commensali
aksik [14]

Answer:

A. predation.

Explanation:

Predation is a type of ecological interaction in which one organism which is known as predator feeds upon another organism thereby killing it. The organism which is killed by predator is known as prey. In such interaction one organism is benefited while another one is harmed.

Brown bears of Alaska feed upon salmon. In order to so they have developed many ways which include waiting at the bottom of falls from where salmons pass by or standing at the bottom of the falls.

(b) What is the pH of 0.40 M triethylammonium chloride, CH₃ (CH₂)₃ NHCl ?
Valentin [98]

pH of 0.40M triethylammonium chloride is 5.90.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

A solution's acidity may be determined by looking at its pH, which is a measurement of hydrogen ion concentration. Pure water slightly separates into ions with roughly equal amounts of hydrogen and hydroxyl (OH) ions. [H+] is 107 for a neutral solution, or pH = 7.

<h3>Given : </h3>

Concentration of triethylammonium chloride = 0.40M

pH = ?

<h3>Solution: </h3>

(CH3CH2)3NHCl ------> (CH3CH2)3NH⁺ + Cl⁻

(CH3CH2)3NH⁺ will react with water to give H3O⁺ .

(CH3CH2)3N will have a Kb = 5.2 x 10 ^(-4)

Kw = Kb x Ka

=> Ka = Kw / Kb = 10^(-14) / 5.2 x 10 ^(-4)

=> Ka = 1.92 x 10^(-11)

so by the reaction we have ,

Ka = x²/(0.40 - x)

=> x = 1.2393 x 10 ^(-6)

now, pH = -log( [H3O⁺]) = - log ( 1.2393 x 10 ^(-6)) = 5.906
