Answer:

The atomic numbers of both are 54 while the mass numbers are 131 and 133 respectively.

Explanation:

- The number of protons = Atomic number. So, if the atom has 54 protons and it remained unchanged, then the two types of atoms of this element both have atomic numbers of 54.

- On the other hand, mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons

So, if type 1 has protons = 54 and neutrons = 77: mass number = 54 + 77 = 131

if Type 2 has protons = 54 and neutrons = 79: mass number = 54 + 77 = 133

(Since the possibility of atoms of the same element to have different mass numbers but the same atomic number is called isotopy). The two types of atoms with mass numbers 131 and 133 described are isotopes.

How are hypotheses different from theories?
juin [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is the Difference Between a Hypothesis and a Theory. In scientific reasoning, a hypothesis is an assumption made before any research has been completed for the sake of testing. A theory on the other hand is a principle set to explain phenomena already supported by data.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer : The molar mass of unknown substance is, 39.7 g/mol

Explanation : Given,

Mass of unknown substance = 9.56 g

Volume of solution = 100.0 mL

Molarity = 2.41 M

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.

Formula used :

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Mass of unknown substance}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of unknown substance}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

2.41M=\frac{9.56g\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of unknown substance}\times 100.0mL}

\text{Molar mass of unknown substance}=39.7g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of unknown substance is, 39.7 g/mol
