X=percentage of Cl-35
(1-x)=percentage of Cl-35

35(x)+37(1-x)=35.454
35x+37-37x=35.454
-2x=35.454-37
-2x=-1.546
x=-1.546/(-2)
x=0.773

0.773=77.3/100=77.3%

(1-x)=1-0.773=0.227

0.227=22.7/100=22.7%

answer: the percentages are: 77.3% of Cl-35 and 22.7% of Cl-37.

Because of its high reactivity which element is normally obtained by the electrolysis
katrin [286]

<span>Lithium has a property of high reactivity and to obtain lithium is through electrolysis of its fused salts. Because lithium is very reactive, it is not found free so electrolysis is use to split it apart to get it.  Moreover, Lithium is an alkali metal with single valence electron that is easily given up to form cation, which make it a good conductor of heat and electricity.</span>

How many grams of material is lost in the aqueous phase if two extractions are carried out on 100 mL of a 5% (m/v) aqueous solut
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

4.94g of material

Explanation:

Partition coefficient (Kp) of a substance is defined as the ratio between concentration of organic solution and aqueous solution, that is:

Kp = <em>8 = Concentration in Ethyl acetate / Concentration in water</em>

100mL of a 5% solution contains 5g of material in 100mL of water. Thus:

8 = X / 100mL / (5g-X) / 100mL

<em>Where X is the amount of material in grams that comes to the organic phase.</em>

8 = X / 100mL / (5g-X) / 100mL

8 = 100X / (500-100X)

4000 - 800X = 100X

4000 = 900X

4.44g = X

<em>Thus, in the first extraction you will lost 4.44g of material from the aqueous phase.</em>

And will remain 5g-4.44g = 0.56g.

In the second extraction:

8 = X / 100mL / (0.56g-X) / 100mL

8 = 100X / (56-100X)

448 - 800X = 100X

448 = 900X

0.50g = X

<em>In the second extraction, you will extract 0.50g of material</em>

Thus, after the two extraction you will lost:

4.44g + 0.50g = <em>4.94g of material</em>

<em></em>

Explain why an atom may go through nuclear decay but another won't? use examples to support your answer.
Marta_Voda [28]
Nuclear decay or radioactive decay is a process by which the nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy that is in terms of its mass. The radioactivity may cause an atom to lose whichever of its subatomic particles.

The explanation as why some of the atoms go through nuclear decay while others do not its because of the stability of some atoms. Atoms usually tend to follow octet rule, those which do not follow through this may experience the nuclear decay.
