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.

What is the mass of sodium (Na) in 50 grams of table salt (NaCl)? Show your work.
Margaret [11]

Answer:

19 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

Sodium Chloride (table salt) = 50 g

Amount of sodium (Na) = ?

Solution:

Molecular weight calculation:

NaCl = 23 + 35.5

NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Mass contributed by Sodium = 23 g

calculate the mole percent composition of sodium (Na) in sodium Chloride.

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

Percent of sodium (Na) = 23 / 58.5 x 100

Percent of sodium (Na) = 39.3 %

It means that for ever gram of sodium chloride there is 0.393 g of Na is present.

So,

for the 50 grams of table salt (NaCl) the mass of Na will be

mass of sodium (Na) = 0.393 x 50 g

mass of sodium (Na) = 19 g

Provide an example of a Food Chain.
VikaD [51]

Answer: Diamond is the name ^-^

A food chain only follows just one path as animals find food. eg: A hawk eats a snake, which has eaten a frog, which has eaten a grasshopper, which has eaten grass. A food web shows the many different paths plants and animals are connected. eg: A hawk might also eat a mouse, a squirrel, a frog or some other animal.

Hope this helps ^_^

Better alternatives to nuclear power plants
AfilCa [17]
It also depends on what we use to make the energy in the power plants. Many use uranium which is non renewable. A better alternative would be wind or solar as it is always around. Hope this helps.
