Enter a balanced equation for the reaction between aqueous lead (II) nitrite and aqueous lithium chloride to form solid lead (II
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + 2 LiNO₂(aq)

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction between aqueous lead (II) nitrite and aqueous lithium chloride to form solid lead (II) chloride and aqueous lithium nitrite.

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + LiNO₂(aq)

This is a double displacement reaction. We will start balancing Cl by multiplying LiCl by 2.

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + LiNO₂(aq)

Now, we have to balance Li by multiplying LiNO₂ by 2.

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + 2 LiNO₂(aq)

The equation is now balanced.

Calculate the atomic mass for copper using the weighted average mass method. Express your answer using two decimal places and in
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

63. 55 amu

Explanation:

Copper is known to exist in two different isotopes which are Cu-63 and Cu-65.

Cu-63 has an atomic mass of 62.93 amu and it has an abundance of 69.15%.

Similarly,

Cu-65 has an atomic mass of 64.93 amu and it has an abundance of 30.85%

Therefore, using the weighted average mass method, the atomic mass of copper is:

Atomic mass of copper = (0.6915*62.93) amu + (0.3085*64.93) amu = 43.52 amu + 20.03 amu = 63.55 amu

Thus, the atomic mass of copper (express in two decimal places) is 63.55 amu
