Bromine has two isotopes 79Br and 81Br, whose masses (78.9183 and 80.9163 amu) and abundances (50.69% and 49.31%, respectively)

were determined in earlier experiments. Calculate the average atomic mass of bromine based on these experiments.

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 79.9034 amu

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})

Given that:

<u>For first isotope: </u>

% = 50.69 %

Mass = 78.9183 amu

<u>For second isotope: </u>

% = 49.31 %

Mass = 80.9163 amu

Thus,  

Average\ atomic\ mass=\frac{50.69}{100}\times {78.9183}+\frac{49.31}{100}\times {80.9163}\ amu

Average\ atomic\ mass=40.0036+39.8998\ amu

<u>Average atomic mass = 79.9034 amu</u>

What kind of properties can only be observed when a substance changes into a different substance?
Shkiper50 [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>Chemical properties</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

By its very definition, a chemical property is one which is exhibited as a result of a chemical reaction. This may happen during or after the reaction. This is because in a chemical reaction there is a transformation in the physical composition of the components and this directly affects its chemical properties.

Which macromolecules break apart by hydrolysis?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Dehydration synthesis reactions build molecules up and generally require energy, while hydrolysis reactions break molecules down and generally release energy. Carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids are built up and broken down via these types of reactions, although the monomers involved are different in each case.
