The average atomic mass written in the periodic table is determined from the relative abundances of the element's isotopes. The equation would be:

Average Atomic Mass = ∑(Relative Abundance×Mass)

Let be the relative abundance of Indium-113. Because there are only 2 isotopes, their relative abundances should equal to 1, such that the relative abundance for Indium-15 is (1-x). The atomic mass of indium is 114.818 amu.

x(112.9041) + (1 - x)(<span>114.9039) = 114.818
Solving for x,
x = 0.043 or 4.3%</span>

Copper is formed when aluminum reacts with copper (II) sulfate in a single-replacement reaction. How many moles of copper can be
serg [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the limiting reactant is CuSO₄ and 0.975 moles of Cu were obtained

Explanation:

moles of Copper = ?

mass of Aluminum = 29 g

mass of CuSO₄ = 156 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Balanced Chemical reaction

                  3 CuSO₄   +  2 Al   ⇒   3 Cu   +  Al₂(SO₄)₃

Calculate the moles of reactants

CuSO₄ = 64 + 32 + (16 x 4) = 160g

Al = 27 g

                160 g of CuSO₄  ----------------- 1 mol

                156 g                   -----------------  x

                      x = (156 x 1) / 160

                      x = 0.975 moles

               27 g of Al -------------------------- 1 mol

               29 g of Al -------------------------- x

                x = (29 x 1)/27

                x = 1.07 moles

Calculate proportions to find the limiting reactant

Theoretical     3 moles CuSO₄/2 moles Al = 1.5 moles

Experimental  0.975 moles CuSO₄/1.07 moles = 0.91

The experimental proportion was lower than the theoretical proportion that means that the limiting reactant is CuSO₄.      

                    3 moles of CuSO₄ ------------------ 3 moles of Cu

                 0.975 moles of CuSO₄ ---------------  x

                         x = (0.975 x 3)/3

                        x = 0.975 moles of Cu were obtained.

A glass holds 6 ounces of 60-proof rum (30 alcohol). how much fruit juice must be added to the rum so that the mixture is dilute
Elenna [48]

We need an equation that will relate the concentrated mixture and the diluted one. To solve this we use the equation, 

M1 V1 = M2 V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

M1V1 = M2V2

30 % x 6 oz = 20 %  x V2

V2 = 9 oz 


The volume of the diluted mixture would be 9 oz. Therefore, you will need to add 9 oz - 6 oz = 3 oz of fruit juice to dilute the 30 percent alcohol to 20 percent alcohol.

How many moles at STP would take up 44.8 liters?
Tom [10]

Answer:

n =  2 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure = standard = 1 atm

Temperature = standard = 273.15 K

Volume = 44.8 L

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

1 atm × 44.8 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 273.15 K

44.8 atm.L = n × 22.43 atm.L/ mol

n = 44.8 atm.L /   22.43 atm.L/ mol

n =  2 mol

For metals like aluminum and iron, which are found naturally in nature as oxides, the refining process requires that the metals
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

reduced

Explanation:

To win the metallic product from the oxide, it demands that the metal be reduced.

During reduction a metal will:

  • gain electrons.
  • there would be removal of oxygen from the specie
  • there would be decrease in oxidation number of the atom
  • decrease in the number of electronegative atom surrounding the element.

The specie that is reduced will become the oxidant and reducing agent in the chemical reaction.
