Answer:

Average atomic mass  = 63.62 amu.

Explanation:

Abundance of Co⁶³ = 69.2%

Abundance of Co⁶⁵ = 30.8%

Atomic mass of Co⁶³ = 63 amu

Atomic mass of  Co⁶⁵  = 65 amu

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (63×69.2)+(65×30.8) /100

Average atomic mass =  4359.6 + 2002 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 6361.6 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 63.62 amu.

What volume of gold would be equal in mass to a piece of copper with a volume of 141 ml? the density of gold is 19.3 g/ml; the d
sergejj [24]
We are tasked to solve for the volume of Gold given that the mass of Gold is equivalent to that of a copper.

Details:

Density of Copper= 8.96 g/ml
Volume of Copper=141 ml
mass of Gold = mass of Copper
Density of Gold=19.3 g/ml

In order to solve for the mass of copper, we need to use the density formula
Density= mass/volume

Since we are to solve for the mass of copper
mass of copper= Density of Copper * Volume of Copper
mass of copper= 8.96 g/ml* 141 ml= 1263.36 g
Thus,
mass of gold=mass of copper=1263.36 g
Hence,
Using still the density formula to solve for the volume of gold,
Volume of gold=mass of gold/ Density of gold
Volume of gold=1263.36 g/ 19.3 g/ml = 65.46 mL

Therefore, the volume of the gold must be 65.46 mL in order to have the same mass of a copper

How one atom undergoing fission can cause up to three other atoms to undergo fission.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

In order to initiate most fission reactions, an atom is bombarded by a neutron to produce an unstable isotope, which undergoes fission. When neutrons are released during the fission process, they can initiate a chain reaction of continuous fission which sustains itself.

The molecules CH4 and CH3Cl both have tetrahedral shapes. Why is CH4 nonpolar whereas CH3Cl is polar?
ruslelena [56]
Because in CH4 the valence electrons of Carbon are being pulled away from the nucleus with the same force (since all hydrogen has the same electronegativity).So charges are equally distributed throughout the atom and the atom is non-polar. In CH3Cl Cl has a different electronegativity than H, so charges aren't equally distributed and therefore the molecule is polar.
