Suppose that a newly discovered element called centium has 3 isotopes that occure in nature. These are centium -200, centium -20
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 203.8 g

Explanation:

Data

Average atomic mass = ?

Centium-200

Centium-203

Centium-209

Equal amounts

Process

1.- Determine the abundance of each isotope.

If they are in equal amounts in nature, just divide 100 by 3

             100/3 = 33.33 % or 0.333

2.- Determine the Average atomic mass

Average atomic mass = Atomic mass 1 x abundance + Atomic mass 2 x

                                        abundance + Atomic mass 3 x abundance

- Substitution

Average atomic mass = 200 x 0.333 + 203 x 0.333 + 209 x 0.333

- Simplification

Average atomic mass = 66.6 + 67.6 + 69.6

Result

Average atomic mass = 203.8 g

In one sentence, explain how the particles of a substance change as a substance changes from a solid to a liquid to a gas.
mestny [16]

Answer:

An example would be ice.

Explanation:

Because ice starts off as a solid and then when it melts from heat turns into a liquid and then if heated can to into a gas.

What is units we used for measuring the radon gas?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Bq/m3 (becquerels per cubic meter) or pCi/l (picocuries per litre)

Explanation:

The unit of the International System of Units identified to measure radioactive activity is Becquerelio (Bq) and equivalent to one decay per second.

The Curio (Ci) is also a radioactivity unit, which is still being used in some countries. It owes its name to chemists and chemists Pierre and Marie Curie.

It represents the amount of material in which 3.7 × 1010 atoms per second, or 3.7 × 1010 nuclear decays per second, which is roughly the activity of 1 g of 226Ra (isotope of the chemical chemical element).

The equivalence between the two is:

1Ci= 3,7 × 1010Bq

The specific radioactive activity of a radioactive gas such as radon gas is measured per unit volume and measured in Bq/m3 or pCi/l.

In this case the equivalence is:

1pCi/l= 37Bq/m3
