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.

Why are redox reactions used in batteries?
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Why are redox reactions used in batteries? The attraction between charged ions releases energy. The movement of electrons creates an electric current. The reactions are extremely exothermic, producing an electric current.

Explanation:

Why are redox reactions used in batteries?

The attraction between charged ions releases energy.

The movement of electrons creates an electric current.

The reactions are extremely exothermic, producing an electric current.

The reactions are extremely endothermic, inducing the movement of electrons.

Read the descriptions below of two substances and an experiment on each. Decide whether the result of the experiment tells you t
muminat

Answer:

Sample A is  a pure substance

Sample B is a mixture

Explanation:

We are told that the when the yellow solid, sample A is ground it turned to orange colour  and was then dissolved. Some part of the solid settled out at the bottom of the beaker while some part floated on top of the water. 50g of the solid was dissolved and 50.1g of the solid was recovered.

This implies that the substance is pure since the mass dissolved was almost the same mass recovered. The 0.1g addition in mass may result from incomplete drying of the solid.

For sample B, the distillation of the sample of density 0.77 g/ml left a fraction in the beaker with density 1.04 g/ml indicating that the substance is a mixture. Different components of a mixture possess different densities.
