How is a series circuit different from a parallel circuit?

beks73 [17]

Answer:

C. A series circuit has only one loop and a parallel circuit has two or more loops for the current to flow through

Explanation:

A circuit that are made of one loop is called series circuit. On the other hand, the parallel circuit has at least two loops. The circuit type has nothing to do with open or closed circuit.

If any part of the series circuit got cut, the current will stop flowing since there is only one loop. A parallel circuit has more loop so the circuit might still work even if a part of the circuit got cut.

Naturally occurring element X exists in three isotopic forms: X-28 (27.979 amu, 92.21% abundance), X-29 (28.976 amu 4.70% abunda

bezimeni [28]

Answer: The average atomic mass of X is 28.09 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$ .....(1)

For isotope 1:

Mass of isotope 1 = 27.979 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 92.21 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.9212

For isotope 2:

Mass of isotope 2 = 28.976 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = 4.70 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.0470

For isotope 3:

Mass of isotope 3 = 29.974 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 3 = 3.09 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 3 = 0.0309

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Average atomic mass of X}=[(27.979\times 0.9212)+(28.976\times 0.0470)+(29.974\times 0.0309)]$

$\text{Average atomic mass of X}=28.09amu$

Hence, the average atomic mass of X is 28.09 amu
