Average atomic mass of an element is a sum of the product of the isotope mass and its relative abundance.
For example: Chlorine has 2 isotopes with the following abundances
Cl(35): Atomic mass = 34.9688 amu; Abundance = 75.78%
Cl(37): Atomic mass = 36.9659 amu; Abundance = 24.22 %
Average atomic mass of Cl = 34.9688(0.7578) + 36.9659(0.2422) =
= 26.4993 + 8.9531 = 35.4524 amu
Thus, the term “ average atomic mass “ is a <u>weighted</u> average so it is calculated differently from a normal average
Answer:
What I came up with was D equaling out to be 42
Explanation:
Im assuming you just do the math
A. 3.5 x 104 = 364
B. 2.4 x 103 = 247.2
C. 1.4 x 10^2_2 = 280
D. 4.9 x 10-7 = 42
I hope I helped.
Answer: 1560632 joules
Explanation:
The change in thermal energy (Q) required to heat ice depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Given that:
Q = ?
Mass of frozen water (ice) = 1kg
C = 4184 J/(kg K)
Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)
= 100°C - 0°C = 100°C
Convert 100°C to Kelvin
(100°C + 273) = 373K
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 1kg x 4184 J/(kg K) x 373K
Q = 1560632 joules
Thus, the change in thermal energy is 1560632 joules
