A newly discovered element, Z, has two naturally occurring isotopes. 90.3 percent of the sample is an isotope with a mass of 267

.8 u, and 9.7 percent of the sample is an isotope with a mass of 270.9 u. What is the weighted average atomic mass for this element?

atomic mass=percentage of isotope a * mass of  isotope a + percentage of isotope b * mass of  isotope b+...+percentage of isotope n * mass of isotope n.

Data:
mass of isotope₁=267.8 u
percentage of isotope₁=90.3%

mass of isotope₂=270.9 u
percentage of isotope₂=9.7%

Therefore:

atomic mass=(0.903)(267.8 u)+(0.097)(270.9 u)=
=241.8234 u + 26.2773 u≈268.1 u

Answer: the mass atomic of this element would be 268.1 u

The concentration of a diluted "wine" sample was found to be 0.24 %(v/v) ethanol. Assuming the wine was diluted by 75x before an
Softa [21]

Answer:

The original concentration of ethanol was 18 % (v/v)

Explanation:

For the analysis of a sample, mostly dilutions are made of the original concentrated sample. The analysis results obtained from the diluted sample are then calculated for the concentrated samples.

According to the given data, the wine sample was diluted 75 times. This means that the initial concentration of ethanol was 75 times more than the final concentration i.e. 0.24 % (v/v). So mathematically:

original concentration (v/v)= final concentration (v/v) x times diluted

original concentration (v/v)= 0.24 % x 75

original concentration (v/v) = 18 %

Calculate the ΔHrxn for the following
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

2 NO (g) → N2 (g) + O2 (g)

2 NOCl (g) → 2 NO (g) + Cl2 (g)

____________________________

2NOCl (g) ⟶ N2 (g) + O2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

ΔH = [90.3 kJ x 2 x -1] +  [-38.6 kJ x -1 x 2] = -103.4 kJ

The ΔH for the reaction is -103.4 kJ

Why is it illegal to manufacture fireworks without a license
victus00 [196]

Illegal Explosives. Illegal explosives associated with the fireworks season are inherently dangerous because of their composition and unpredictability. Homemade explosives can pose a particular risk for injury because the people making them often lack knowledge and experience in manufacturing fireworks.
