To take the percent by mass of this element, we use the formula:

% mass = (mass of element / mass of ore) * 100%

% mass = (47.5 g / (660 kg * 1000 g / kg)) * 100*

<span>% mass = 7.20 x 10^-3 %</span>

<u>Answer:</u> The mass percent of element in the ore is 0.0072 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass percentage of element in ore, we use the equation:

\text{Mass percent of element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of ore}}\times 100

Mass of element = 47.5 g

Mass of ore = 660 kg = 660000 g    (Conversion factor:  1 kg = 1000 g)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent of element}=\frac{47.5g}{660000g}\times 100=0.0072\%

Hence, the mass percent of element in the ore is 0.0072 %

the isotope of an atom containing 31 protons and 39 neutrons suddenly has two neutrons added to it. what isotope is created? a.
olasank [31]
The elements are identified by the number of protons of the atom, which is its atomic number.

In this case the number of protons 39 (atomic number 39) permit you to identify the element as gallium.

Now, to identify the isotope you tell the name of the element and add the mass number.

The mass number is the sum of the protons and the neutrons

In this case, the number of neutrons is the original 39 plus the 2 added suddenly, i.e. 39 + 2 = 41, so the mass number is 31 + 41 = 72

Therefore, the isotope is gallium - 72.

Answer: isotope gallium - 72
