Answer:
Mg S2 O3
Explanation:
.691 g of Mg is .284 mole
1.84 g of S is .5739 mole
1.365 g of O is .8531 mole you can see the ratio is ~ 1 :2 :3
Mg S2 O3
Most reasonable answer:
Observations and experimentation
Answer:
Rubidium-85=61.2
Rubidium-87=24.36
Atomic Mass=85.56 amu
Explanation:
To find the atomic mass, we must multiply the masses of the isotope by the percent abundance, then add.
<u>Rubidium-85 </u>
This isotope has an abundance of 72%.
Convert 72% to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal two places to the left.
- 72/100= 0.72 or 72.0 --> 7.2 ---> 0.72
Multiply the mass of the isotope, which is 85, by the abundance as a decimal.
- mass * decimal abundance= 85* 0.72= 61.2
Rubidium-85=61.2
<u>Rubidium-87</u>
This isotope has an abundance of 28%.
Convert 28% to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal two places to the left.
- 28/100= 0.28 or 28.0 --> 2.8 ---> 0.28
Multiply the mass of the isotope, which is 87, by the abundance as a decimal.
- mass * decimal abundance= 87* 0.28= 24.36
Rubidium-87=24.36
<u>Atomic Mass of Rubidium:</u>
Add the two numbers together.
- Rb-85 (61.2) and Rb-87 (24.36)
