In this case, we are going to assume that there are 100 atoms to make things easier. 

Let R% be the abundance of n-15. With this in mind, we calculate the abundance of n-14 to be 100%-R%

14.0031*(100-R)% + 15.001 * R%= 14.00674 
In this case, we can delete or ignore the % sign since we do not want to carry it around, however, we need to keep in mind that the final answer is in %

14.0031*(100-R) + 15.001 * R= 14.00674 
1400.31-14.0031R+15.001R=1400.674
0.9979R=0.364
R=0.3648

Then, the abundance of n-15 is 0.3648%

When 1.00 g of boron is burned in o2(g) to form b2o3(s), enough heat is generated to raise the temperature of 733 g of water fro
Bas_tet [7]
<span>Answer: For this problem, you would need to know the specific heat of water, that is, the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 degree C. The formula is q = c X m X delta T, where q is the specific heat of water, m is the mass and delta T is the change in temperature. If we look up the specific heat of water, we find it is 4.184 J/(g X degree C). The temperature of the water went up 20 degrees. 4.184 x 713 x 20.0 = 59700 J to 3 significant digits, or 59.7 kJ. Now, that is the energy to form B2O3 from 1 gram of boron. If we want kJ/mole, we need to do a little more work. To find the number of moles of Boron contained in 1 gram, we need to know the gram atomic mass of Boron, which is 10.811. Dividing 1 gram of boron by 10.811 gives us .0925 moles of boron. Since it takes 2 moles of boron to make 1 mole B2O3, we would divide the number of moles of boron by two to get the number of moles of B2O3. .0925/2 = .0462 moles...so you would divide the energy in KJ by the number of moles to get KJ/mole. 59.7/.0462 = 1290 KJ/mole.</span>
