Answer: 121.7558 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of the unknown element =

(Mass of isotope 1 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 1) + ( Mass of Isotope 2 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 2)

(120.9 x 0.5721) + (122.9 x 0.4279) = 69.16689 + 52.58891

Average mass of the unknown element = 121.7558 amu

Answer:

-2

Explanation:

Calcium is the element of second group and forth period. The electronic configuration of Calcium is - 2, 8, 8, 2 or 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2

There are 2 valence electrons of Calcium.

Thus, calcium loses two electrons to sulfate ion and sulfate ion accepts these electrons to form ionic bond.

Calcium sulfate, CaSO_4 is formed when 2 valence electrons of calcium are loosed and they are gained by sulfate ion.

Ca^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}\rightarrow CaSO_4

Thus, the charge on the sulfate ion is -2.

37.9 grams of an unknown substance undergoes a temperature increase of
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

1.023 J / g °C

Explanation:

m = 37.9 grams

ΔT = 25.0*C

H = 969 J

c = ?

The equation relating these equation is;

H = mcΔT

making c subject of formulae;

c = H / mΔT

c = 969 J / (37.9 g * 25.0*C)

Upon solving;

c = 1.023 J / g °C
