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

Método científico: El trabajo científico se caracteriza por ser planificado, con objetivos iniciales y que habitualmente se dan
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Ver explicación

Explanation:

El método científico se refiere al patrón establecido de resolución de un problema científico. Los siguientes son pasos importantes en el método científico;

Haz una observación.

formular preguntas relevantes.

elabore una hipótesis que pueda ser probada.

Diseña un experimento.

Prueba la hipótesis usando tu diseño experimental.

Teniendo en cuenta ambos escenarios, el último caso en el que estudiantes de diferentes capacidades trabajan juntos para resolver un problema refleja mejor el método científico porque pueden hacerse preguntas entre sí y llegar a hipótesis comprobables que pueden demostrarse como verdaderas o falsas mediante experimentos.

A(g) + 2B(g) → C(g) + D(g)
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

0.169

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

A(g) + 2B(g) ⇄ C(g) + D(g)

We can find the pressures at equilibrium using an ICE chart.

       A(g) + 2 B(g) ⇄ C(g) + D(g)

I       1.00     1.00        0        0

C       -x        -2x        +x       +x

E    1.00-x  1.00-2x     x         x

The pressure at equilibrium of C is 0.211 atm, so x = 0.211.

The pressures at equilibrium are:

pA = 1.00-x = 1.00-0.211 = 0.789 atm

pB = 1.00-2x = 1.00-2(0.211) = 0.578 atm

pC = x = 0.211 atm

pD = x = 0.211 atm

The pressure equilibrium constant (Kp) is:

Kp = pC × pD / pA × pB²

Kp = 0.211 × 0.211 / 0.789 × 0.578²

Kp = 0.169

Why must the ph ammonia buffer solution be stored and dispensed in the fume exhaust hood?
Vadim26 [7]

On the other hand ammonia is a very dangerous chemical which has a pungent smell and effect the eyes of the user. Thus it kept always in the fume exhaust hood for storing and dispensing function.  

The  pH of ammonia buffer contains ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) and a salt of ammonia with a  strong acid like (HCl) which produces, ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) mixture. The evaporation rate of ammonia is so high at room temperature thus on opening of the buffer solution the ammonia get evaporated very fast and the concentration of ammonia decreases which affect the pH of the buffer solution.

Thus the reason to put ammonia buffer in fume hood is explained.

According to the Brinsted -Lowry. what is an acid ? what is a base ? ​
sasho [114]

Answer:

According to the Brønsted definition, an acid is a substance capable of donating a proton, and a base is a substance capable of accepting a proton. ... The species giving up the proton is HCl, an acid. The species accepting the proton is water, the base. The species Cl- is the conjugate base of HCl.
