In general chemistry, isotopes are substances that belong to one specific element. So, they all have the same atomic numbers. But they only differ in the mass numbers, or the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In a nutshell, they only differ in the number of neutrons.
For Nickel, there are 5 naturally occurring isotopes. Their identities, masses and relative abundance are listed below
Isotope Abundance Atomic Mass
Ni-58 68.0769% <span>57.9353 amu
Ni-60 </span>26.2231% <span>59.9308 amu
Ni-61 </span>1.1399 % <span>60.9311 amu
Ni-62 </span>3.6345% <span>61.9283 amu
Ni-64 </span>0.9256% <span>63.9280 amu
To determine the average atomic mass of Nickel, the equation would be:
Average atomic mass = </span>∑Abundance×Atomic Mass
Using the equation, the answer would be:
Average atomic mass = 57.9353(68.0769%) + 59.9308(26.2231%) + 60.9311(1.1399%) + 61.9283(3.6345%) + 63.9280(0.9256%)
Average atomic mass = 58.6933 amu
Answer:
53.29% of acetic acid is Oxygen
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Acetic acid it's molecular formula is HC2H3O2. This means it consists of 3 elements Carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen.
Step 2: the molar masses
The molecular mass of acetic acid is:
4* H = 4* 1.01 g/mole
2* C = 2*12 g/mole
2*O = 2* 16 g/mole
Total molar mass = 4+ 24+32 = 60.052 g/mole
Step 3: Calculate the mass percent
32 g of the 60.052 g is Oxygen
(32/60.052) *100% = 53.29%
53.29% of acetic acid is Oxygen.
Answer:
4.16g of MgCl2
Explanation:
First, let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction:
Mg + 2HCl —> MgCl2 + H2
Molar Mass of Mg = 24g/mol
Molar Mass of MgCl2 = 24 + (2x35.5) = 24 + 71 = 95g
From the equation,
24g of Mg produced 95g of MgCl2.
Therefore, 1.05g of Mg will produce = (1.05x95)/24 = 4.16g of MgCl2
Fossil C is the youngest. Layers further down were placed earlier than others. Because C is on the top layer, it must be the youngest (unless a disaster mixed up all the layers!).
