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

Calculate the pressure in the atmosphere of 2.00 moles of helium gas in a 10.0 L container at 27 C
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The pressure is 4.926 atm

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Number of moles = 2.00 moles

Volume of the gas = 10.0 L

Temperature = 27 °C = 273 + 27 = 300 Kelvin

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the pressure

P*V = n*R*T

with P= TO BE DETERMINED

with V = 10.0 L

with n = 2.00 moles

with R = 0.00821 L*atm/ K*mol

T = 300 Kelvin

P = (n*R*T) / V = (2 * 0.00821 * 300) / 10 L = 4.926 atm

The pressure is 4.926 atm

Which sample would have the same number of molecules as 11.2L of He (g) at 273K and 202kPa?
bazaltina [42]

Answer: 11.2 L of CH_4(g) at 273K and 202kPa

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 202 kPa = 1.99 atm  ( 1kPa= 0.0098 atm)

V = Volume of gas = 11.2 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =273K

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{1.99\times 11.2}{0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 273K}=0.99moles

According to avogadro's law, equal number of moles occupy equal volumes and contain equal number of molecules at same temperature and pressure conditions.

As 11.2 L of CH_4(g) at 273K and 202kPa will have same moles as 11.2L of He (g) at 273K and 202kPa, thus they have same number of molecules.
