True
Pressure is the force per unit area on an object. The force in the case of air pressure is the weight of the air molecules; therefore, the air pressure is essentially due to gravity pulling down air molecules.

A certain element exists as two different isotopes. 76.00% of its atoms have a mass of 35.00 amu and 24.00% of its atoms have a
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

35.48 uma

Explanation:

An isotope is when an element has equal numbers of protons but different mass value because it has different amount of neutrons.

To calculate the average atomic mass with the given data:

First change de percentages to fractional numbers, divide by 100.

Remember the sum of a percentage is equal to 100, but when you are adding the fractions the sum is equal to 1.

76/100 = 0.76

24/100 = 0.24

  %       fraction

76.00 0.76

24.00 0.24

total100.00 1.00

Now, multiply the mass with their corresponding fraction:

35(0.76) = 26.60

37(0.24) =  8.88

%      fraction amu amu

76.00 0.76 35         26.60

24.00 0.24 37         8.88

total100.00 1.00    average 35.48

Now you add the calculated mass to obtain the average atomic mass of the element.

And the value you will get is 35.48 amu.

I included an excel table so you can review it, I like to organize all the given data and the calculation in tables, also I think is easier to understand.

In preparation for a demonstration, your professor brings a 1.50−L bottle of sulfur dioxide into the lecture hall before class t
solmaris [256]

Answer:

4.81 moles

Explanation:

The total pressure of the gas = Pressure at which gauge reads zero + pressure read by it.

Pressure at which gauge reads zero = 14.7 psi

Pressure read by the gauge = 988 psi

Total pressure = 14.7 + 988 psi = 1002.7 psi

Also, P (psi) = P (atm) / 14.696

Pressure = 1002.7 / 14.696  = 68.2297 atm

Temperature = 25 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K  

Volume = 1.50 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

68.2297 atm × 1.5 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 298.15 K  

⇒n = 4.81 moles
