Answer:

151.94 u

Explanation:

The atomic mass of Eu is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its relative importance (i.e., its <em>percent abundance</em>).

The atomic masses of Eu-151 and Eu-153 are 150.92 u and 152.92 u, respectively.

Set up a table for easy calculation.

0.4803 × 150.92 u =  72.472 u

0.5197 × 152.92 u  = <u> 79.473 u </u>

                 TOTAL = 151.94  u

How is ti possible that, when adding protons while moving left to right across a period, the size of an atom shrinks? Why is the
Kaylis [27]

As one moves across a period, from left to right, both the number of protons and electrons of a neutral atom increase. The enhancing number of electrons and protons results in a greater attraction between the electrons and the nucleus. This uplifted attraction pulls the electrons nearer to the nucleus, therefore, reducing the size of the atom.  

On the other hand, while moving down a group, there is an increase in the number of energy levels. The enhanced number of energy levels increases the size of the atom in spite of the elevation in the number of protons. In the outermost energy levels, the protons get attracted towards the nucleus, however, the attraction is less due to an increase in the distance from the nucleus.

Sample X has a mass of 22.7 g and reacts with sample Y to form sample XY with a total mass of 86.9 g. What is the mass of sample
kolezko [41]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{64.2 g}}

Explanation:

                 X  +  Y ⟶ XY

mass:  22.7 g   x     86.9 g

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of the product must equal the mass of the reactants.

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{22.7 g} + x & = & \text{86.9 g}\\x & = & \text{86.9 g} - \text{22.7 g}\\& = & \textbf{64.2 g}\\\end{array}\\\text{The mass of Y is $\large \boxed{\textbf{64.2 g}}$}
