Answer:

The average atomic mass of element X is 17.561 u.

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)

We are given:

Mass of isotope X-17 = 17 u

Percentage abundance of isotope X-17 = 65.20 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.6520

Mass of isotope X-18 = 18 u

Percentage abundance of isotope X-18 = 13.50 %

Fractional abundance of isotope X-18 = 0.1350

Mass of isotope X-19 = 19 u

Percentage abundance of isotope X-19 =21.30%

Fractional abundance of isotope X-19 = 0.2130

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Average atomic mass of Z}=\sum[(17 u\times0.6520 )+(18 u\times 0.1350)+(19 u\times 0.2130)]

\text{Average atomic mass of Z}=17.561 u

Hey solution that contains all of the salute it can normally hold at a given temperature is
ankoles [38]

Answer:

A saturated solution

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one that contains the most amount of solute that can be dissolved in it at a given temperature

An example of a saturated solution is carbonated water, which readily gives off bubbles of carbon dioxide gas from areas within the solution to the region above the top surface of the gas in liquid solution

A saturation solution of salt in water can be created by continuing to dissolve salt in a given amount of water until it can no longer dissolve any more salt. However, heating the saturated salt solution, increases the amount of salt that can be dissolved.

Therefore, a solution that contains all of the solute it can normally hold at a given temperature is <u>a saturated solution</u>

The speed v of a sound wave traveling in a medium that has bulk modulus b and mass density ρ (mass divided by the volume) is v=b
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

As it is given that Bulk modulus  and density related to velocity of sound

v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}

by rearranging the equation we can say

B = \rho * v^2

now we need to find the SI unit of Bulk modulus here

we can find it by plug in the units of density and speed here

B = \frac{kg}{m^3} * (\frac{m}{s})^2

so SI unit will be

B = \frac{kg}{m* s^2}

SO above is the SI unit of bulk Modulus
