<span> First you need to know how many isotopes there are of silicon, and its average atomic units (look at periodic table). Then make up a system of equations to solve for it. Theres 3 stable silicon isotopes (28, 29, 30) so you will need to have 3 equations. You must be given the percent abundance of at least one of the isotopes to solve because here I can only see 2 equations (numbered down below) set x = percent abundance of si-28 y = percent abundance of si-29 z = percent abundance of si-30 since all of silicon atoms account for 100% of all silicon: x + y + z = 100% = 1 therefore: 1) x = 1 - y - z You also have 2) 28x + 29y + 30z = average atomic mass you can substitute x so that equation becomes: 28 (1 - y - z) + 29y + 30z = average atomic mass See how you have 2 variables here? You cant go on until you know the value of one isotope already or you have given a clue which you can derive the third equation</span>
<span>Feb 19, 2014 - The units of k tell you that this is a second order reaction. So, to solve this, you need to use the integrated rate law for a 2nd order reaction: 1/[A] = kt + 1/[A]o 1/[A] = 0.540/Ms (835 s) + 1/0.00640 1/[A] = 607 [A] = 1.65X10^-3 M.</span><span>
