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 was transferred from the hydrochloric acid to the water molecule
gtnhenbr [62]

A proton (H⁺) is transferred from the hydrochloric acid to the water molecule.

<h3>What is Bronsted-Lowry theory?</h3>

Bronsted-Lowry theory is used to classify acids and bases.

  • Acid: is a substance that donates H⁺.
  • Base: is a substance that accepts H⁺.

Hydrochloric acid is an acid and when it reacts with water, it transfers an H⁺ ion, according to the following equation.

HCl + H₂O ⇒ Cl⁻ + H₃O⁺

A proton (H⁺) is transferred from the hydrochloric acid to the water molecule.
