Element Y has two naturally occurring isotopes. The most dominant isotope has a mass of 114.3789 amu and a percent abundance of

64.23%. What is
the mass of the second isoptope if the average atomic mass is 128.4359 amu? Remember that the two percentages will have to sum to 100%.

Answer:

153.6771 amu

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Isotope A:

Mass of A = 114.3789 amu

Abundance (A%) = 64.23%

Isotope B:

Mass of B =.?

Abundance (B%) = 100 – A%

Abundance (B%) = 100 – 64.23

Abundance (B%) = 35.77%

average atomic mass of Element Y = 128.4359 amu

The mass of the 2nd isotope (i.e isotope B) can be obtained as follow:

Average atomic mass = [(Mass of A × A%)/100] + [(Mass of B × B%)/100]

128.4359 = [(114.3789 × 64.23)/100] + [(Mass of B × 35.77) /100]

128.4359 = 73.4656 + (Mass of B × 0.3577)

Collect like terms

128.4359 – 73.4656 = Mass of B × 0.3577

54.9703 = Mass of B × 0.3577

Divide both side by 0.3577

Mass of B = 54.9703 / 0.3577

Mass of B = 153.6771 amu

Therefore, the mass of the 2nd isotope is 153.6771 amu

<span>Synthetic gem crystals have been manufactured since the late 1800s, and their production is often marked by a need for them in industrial applications outside of the jewelry industry. The first success was in producing synthetic ruby of faceting quality. Synthetic crystals are used in communications and laser technology, microelectronics, and abrasives. Because synthetics for jewelry applications can be “made to order” [i.e. consistent color and crystal shape] given the right ingredients, time, and the facilities to grow them, they are likely to be much less rare than natural gems of equal size, clarity, and saturation of color. Because of this, and because it is possible to confuse them with gems that are naturally occurring, there are strict guidelines regarding how they are marketed and sold. so that is you answer </span>
