Answer:

The answer to your question is  35.4527 g

Explanation:

Data

Cl-35    abundance = 75.77 %    mass Cl-35 = 34.9688

Cl-37     abundance = 24.23 %   mass Cl-37 = 36.9659

Process

1.- Convert the percents to decimals

   75.77% = 75.77/100 = 0.7577

   24.23% = 24.23/100 = 0.2423

2.- Find the atomic weight

    Average atomic weight = Abundance 1 x Mass Cl-35 +

                                               Abundance 2 x Mass Cl-37

Substitution

     Average atomic weight = (0.7577)(34.9688) + (0.2423 x 36.9659)

Simplification

     Average atomic weight = 26.4959 + 8.9568

Result

      Average atomic weight = 35.4527 g

What is the mass of 4.50 moles of magnesium chloride, MgCl2?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

427.5g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles  = 4.5moles

Unknown:

Mass of MgCl₂  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

     Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of MgCl₂  = 24 + 2(35.5) = 95g/mol

  Mass  = 4.5 x 95  = 427.5g

Which statement best desrcibes a property of a proton
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Has a positive charge

Explanation:

Protons inside the nucleus help bind nucleus together. They also attract negative charged electrons.

In science negative to negative/positive to positive repels and negative to positive or vice versa attract to each other.

4. A sample of nitrogen at 20 degrees Celsius was compressed to 300ml to
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

We are given:

V(i) = 0.3 L                          V(f) = 0.36 L

P(i) = x pa                            P(f) = 400 pa

T(i) = T(f) = 293 k

Using the gas formula:

PV = nRT

Since n , R and T are constant,

PV = k  (where k is a constant)

Hence we can say that:

P(i) * V(i) = P(f) * V(f)

x * 0.3 = 0.36 * 400

x = 14.4/0.3

x = 480 pascals

Hence the initial pressure is 480 pascals

Converting to Kpa, we have to divide by 1000

Initial pressure (Kpa) = 0.48

Which of the following statements about 13C NMR is not true?A. In 13C proton-decoupled NMR spectra, all peaks are singlets.B. 13
adoni [48]

Answer: .B. 13C NMR spectra display peaks for only carbons that bear hydrogen atoms.

Explanation:

The statements that are true about 13C NMR are:

A. In 13C proton-decoupled NMR spectra, all peaks are singlets.

C 13C NMR chemical shifts occur over a greater range than 1H NMR chemical shifts.

D. 13C NMR easily differentiates between the different hybridized carbons (sp3, sp2, and sp hybridized carbons).organic-chemistry

Therefore, the option that isn't true is option B. "13C NMR spectra display peaks for only carbons that bear hydrogen atoms". This is false because 13C NMR will show every peak in the spectrum and it doesn't matter if it's only carbons that bear hydrogen atoms as everything will be shown.
