Answer:
The average atomic weight = 121.7598 amu
Explanation:
The average atomic weight of natural occurring antimony can be calculated as follows :
To calculate the average atomic mass the percentage abundance must be converted to decimal.
121 Sb has a percentage abundance of 57.21%, the decimal format will be
57.21/100 = 0.5721 . The value is the fractional abundance of 121 Sb .
123 Sb has a percentage abundance of 42.79%, the decimal format will be
42.79/100 = 0.4279. The value is the fractional abundance of 123 Sb .
Next step is multiplying the fractional abundance to it masses
121 Sb = 0.5721 × 120.904 = 69.169178400
123 Sb = 0.4279 × 122.904 = 52.590621600
The final step is adding the value to get the average atomic weight.
69.169178400 + 52.590621600 = 121.7598 amu
Answer: Potassium hydroxide, KOH, is considered a <u>BASE</u> in an acid-base reaction because it <u>ACCEPTS</u> a hydrogen ion from the other reactant.
According to Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, Base is a specie which accepts proton (H⁺) while, Acid is a specie which donate proton.
Bases may contain a negative charge or lone pair of electrons, while, Acids contain positive charge or a neutral atom with incomplete octet.
In given statement KOH is acting as a base because it contains a negatively charged hydroxyl group which can accept proton from a acid, i.e.
KOH → K⁺ + OH⁻
Reaction of OH⁻ with any acid,
K⁺ + OH⁻ + HCl → H₂O + KCl
