The answer is 64.907 amu.

The atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of its isotopes. The relative abundance of isotopes must be taken into consideration, therefore:
atomic mass of copper = atomic mass of isotope 1 * abundance 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 * abundance 2

We know:
atomic mass of copper = 63.546 amu
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: 62.939 amu
The abundance of isotope 1 is: 69.17% = 0.6917
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: x
The abundance of isotope 2: 100% - 69.17% = 30.83% = 0.3083

Thus:
63.546 amu = 62.939 amu * 0.6917 + x * 0.3083
63.546 <span>amu = 43.535 amu + 0.3083x
</span>⇒ 63.546 amu - 43.535 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ 20.011 amu = 0.3083x
   ⇒ x = 20.011 amu ÷ 0.3083 = 64.907 amu

The ph of a 0.55 m aqueous solution of hypobromous acid, hbro, at 25.0 °c is 4.48. what is the value of ka for hbro?
Alex Ar [27]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be a). 2.0 × 10-9

____________________________________________________

Work:

In your question the "ph" of a 0.55 m aqueous solution of hypobromous acid temperature is at 25 degrees C, and it's "ph" is 4.48.

You would use the ph (4.48) to find the ka for "hbro"

[H+]

=

10^-4.48

=

3.31 x 10^-5 M

=

[BrO-]

or: [H+] = 10^-4.48 = 3.31 x 10^-5 M = [BrO-]

Then you would find ka:

(3.31 x 10^-5)^2/0.55 =2 x 10^-9

What is the word eletrovent
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrovalent is a word often associated with chemical bonding in the field of chemistry. It is special type of bond that occurs between metals and non-metals.

These bond types are interatomic interactions occurring between two atoms to ensure that they attain stable configurations.

  • This bond type is also known as ionic bonds.
  • It occurs between two species with a large electronegative diffference i.e one specie is electropositive and the other highly electronegative.
  • The more electropositive specie is metal and it readily loses its valence electrons.
  • The electronegative non-metal gains the electrons and becomes negatively charged.
  • The electrostatic attraction between the metal and non-metals yields the electrovalent bonds.
