Bromium has two naturally occurring isotopes: 79br, with an atomic weight of 78.918 amu, and 81br, with an atomic weight of 80.9

16 amu. if the average atomic weight for br is 79.903 amu, calculate the fraction-of-occurrences of these two isotopes. [hint: work on example problem 2.1]

The two different isotopes have weights :

w1 = 78.918 amu

w2 = 80.916 amu

average weight w3 = 79.903 amu

The mixing of two components can be modeled as

let the fraction of w1 be 'x'

hence w1. x + w2.(1-x)  = w3

now this is a linear equation in 'x'. Substituting the values we get

x = 0.507

hence the percentage of Br79 = 50.7% and the percentage of BR81 = 49.3%

Consider this row in the periodic table of elements. Which element(s) are most likely to conduct electricity?
Sidana [21]

A) lithium and beryllium

Explanation:

From the given row on the periodic table, only lithium and beryllium will conduct electricity.

What makes a substance able to conduct electricity?

  • The presence of free mobile electrons and in some, ions allows them to carry electric currents.

Metals are generally known to be good conductors of heat and electricity. This is because, metals have a large pool of electrons i.e free mobile electrons. They are electropositive with a large size and readily release their electrons for conduction.

Lithium and Beryllium are in the metallic block on the periodic table.

An electron with a charge of -1.6 × 10-19 coulombs experiences a field of 1.4 × 105 newtons/coulomb. What is the magnitude of th
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Electric force, F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on an electron is -1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Electric field, E=1.4\times 10^5\ N/m

We need to find the magnitude of the electric force on this electron due to this field. The electric force is given by :

F=qE\\\\F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.4\times 10^5\\\\F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N

So, the electric force is 2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N.

What is An object that changes position?
mel-nik [20]

Explanation:

Motion is when an object changes position over time. The object in motion is usually in front of a reference point-an object that appears to stay in one place. The rate at which an object moves is called speed. Speed depends on both time and distance. The velocity of an object is how fast it is going in one direction

How do you know if an object has changed position?

changes position requires a point of reference. An object changes position if it moves relative to a reference point. To visualize this, picture yourself competing in a 100-m dash. You begin just behind the start line
