A compound is known to be Na2CO3, Na2SO4, NaOH, NaCl, NaC2H3O2, or NaNO3. When a barium nitrate solution is added to a solution

containing the unknown a white precipitate forms. No precipitate is observed when a magnesium nitrate solution is added to a solution containing the unknown. What is the identity of the unknown compound

Answer:

Na₂SO₄

Explanation:

Barium nitrate, Ba(NO₃)₂ produce precipitate with SO₄²⁻, CO₃²⁻. That means the precipitate could be obtained from Na₂SO₄ and Na₂CO₃.

Also, magnesium nitrate, Mg(NO₃)₂, produce precipitate just with CO₃²⁻. As the unknown solution produce no precipitate, the unknown compound is:

<em>Na₂SO₄</em>

A hypothetical element has an atomic weight of 48.68 amu. It consists of three isotopes having masses of 47.00 amu, 48.00 amu, a
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer : The percent abundance of the heaviest isotope is, 78 %

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

As we are given that,

Average atomic mass = 48.68 amu

Mass of heaviest-weight isotope = 49.00 amu

Let the percentage abundance of heaviest-weight isotope = x %

Fractional abundance of heaviest-weight isotope = \frac{x}{100}

Mass of lightest-weight isotope = 47.00 amu

Percentage abundance of lightest-weight isotope = 10 %

Fractional abundance of lightest-weight isotope = \frac{10}{100}

Mass of middle-weight isotope = 48.00 amu

Percentage abundance of middle-weight isotope = [100 - (x + 10)] %  = (90 - x) %

Fractional abundance of middle-weight isotope = \frac{(90-x)}{100}

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

48.68=[(47.0\times \frac{10}{100})+(48.0\times \frac{(90-x)}{100})+(49.0\times \frac{x}{100})]

x=78\%

Therefore, the percent abundance of the heaviest isotope is, 78 %

How many atoms are in 165 g of calcium?
Whitepunk [10]
Atomic mass Calcium = 40.078 a.m.u

40.078 g ---------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
165 g -------------------- ??

165 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 40.078 => 2.47x10²⁴ atoms

hope this helps!
