<span>There is more of the lighter isotope, because the average is close to the lighter isotope. When doing the calculation for the average atomic mass, it considers the fraction of the isotopes available in a sample. Therefore samples of the element that have a values that do not deviate far from the sample are more abundant.</span>

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

No,  22.09%  is not a valid measurement

Explanation:

Precision has to do with how close a given set of measured values are to each other. It is quite different from accuracy. Accuracy refers to how close a given set of values is to the true value. A given set of values may be precise but not accurate and vice versa.

If we look at the values obtained;  22.09%,  22.15%, 22.18%, 22.23%, 22.25%, the value 22.09% is too far off the other values. This implies that it does not represent a valid measurement since it is not close to all the other values obtained.

Identify the balanced equation for the following reaction:<br><br> SO2(g) + O2(g) → SO3(g)
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:  The balanced equation for the given reaction is

2SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g).

Explanation:

A chemical equation which contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side.

For example, SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow SO_{3}(g)

Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • S = 1
  • O = 4

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • S = 1
  • O = 3

To balance this equation, multiply SO_{2} by 2 on reactant side and multiply SO_{3} by 2. Hence, the equation will be re-written as follows.

2SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g)

Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • S = 2
  • O = 6

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • S = 2
  • O = 6

Now, there are same number of atoms on both reactant and product side. So, this equation is balanced.

Thus, we can conclude that the balanced equation for the given reaction is 2SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g).
