Answer:

\boxed{\text{6.95 u; Li}}

Explanation:

1. Atomic mass of T

To get the atomic mass of T, you calculate the weighted average of the atomic masses of the isotopes.

That is, you multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its relative importance (e.g.., its percent of the total).

\begin{array}{ccrcr}\textbf{Atom} & \textbf{Mass/u} &\textbf{Percent} & \textbf{Calculation}& \textbf{Result/u}\\^{6}\text{T}& 6.02 & 7.42 & 6.02 \times 0.0742 & 0.45\\^{7}\text{T}& 7.02 & 92.58 & 7.02 \times 0.9258& 6.50\\& & &\text{TOTAL } = &\textbf{6.95}\\\end{array}

2. Identity of T

Lithium has an atomic mass of 6.64 u.

Element T is lithium.

Write the net cell equation for this electrochemical cell. phases are optional. do not include the concentrations. sn(s)||sn2+(a
Alchen [17]
E^{o}cell =  E^{o} (Ag+/Ag) -  E^{o}( Sn2+/Sn)
where, E^{o} (Ag+/Ag) = std. reduction potential of Ag+ = 0.7994 v
and Sn2+/Sn = std. reduction potential of Sn2+ = -0.14 v

Thus, E^{o}cell = 0.7994v - (-0.14v) = 0.9394 v

Now, ΔG^{o} = -nFE^{0},
where, n = number of electrons = 2
F = Faraday's constant = 96500 C
∴ΔG^{o} = 2 X 96500 X 0.9394 = -1.18 X 10^{5} J/mol

Now, using Nernst's Equation we have,
[tex]E_{cell} = 0.9394 - \frac{2.303X298}{2X96500}log \frac{0.0115}{ 3.5^{2} }
E_{cell} = 0.9765 v

Finally, ΔG = -nFE = -2 X 96500 X 0.9765 = -1.88 X 10^{5} J/mol
