What is the average atomic mass of the element?

Chemistry
1 answer:
morpeh [17]3 years ago
7 0

The average atomic mass of element X is 14.007 u.

The average atomic mass of X is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its <em>relative importance</em> (i.e., its % abundance).

Thus,  

0.996 36 × 14.003 u =13.952 03 u

0.003 64 × 15.000 u = <u>0.054 60 u</u>

__________TOTAL = 14.007     u

How many milliliters of sodium metal, with a density of 0.97 g/mL, would be needed to produce 53.2 grams of hydrogen gas in the
olchik [2.2K]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2
</span><span>
We first use the amount of hydrogen gas to be produced and the molar mass of the hydrogen gas to determine the amount in moles to be produced. Then, we use the relation from the reaction to relate H2 to Na.

53.2 g H2 ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) ( 2 mol Na / 1 mol H2 ) ( 22.99 g / 1 mol ) = 1210.96 g Na

1210.96 g Na ( 1 mL / 0.97 g ) = 1248.41 mL Na needed</span>

(b) in what way are carbon dioxide and orange juice similar?​
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The effects of supercritical CO2 (SC-CO2) on the microbiological, sensory (taste, odour, and colour), nutritional (vitamin C content), and physical (cloud, total acidity, pH, and °Brix) qualities of orange juice were studied. The CO2 treatment was performed in a 1 litre capacity double-walled reactor equipped with a magnetic stirring system. Freshly extracted orange juice was treated with supercritical CO2, pasteurised at 90°C, or left untreated. There were no significant differences in the sensory attributes and physical qualities between the CO2 treated juice and freshly extracted juice. The CO2 treated juice retained 88% of its vitamin C, while the pasteurised juice was notably different from the fresh juice and preserved only 57% of its vitamin C content. After 8 weeks of storage at 4°C, there was no microbial growth in the CO2 treated juice.

When iridium-192 is used in cancer treatment, a small cylindrical piece of 192ir, 0.6 mm in diameter and 3.5 mm long, is surgica
Ivan

Iridium-192 is used in cancer treatment, a small cylindrical piece of 192 Ir, 0.6 mm in diameter (0.3mm radius) and 3.5 mm long, is surgically inserted into the tumor. if the density of iridium is 22.42 g/cm3, how many iridium atoms are present in the sample?

Let us start by computing for the volume of the cylinder. V = π(r^2)*h where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder, respectively. Let's convert all given dimensions to cm first. Radius = 0.03 cm, height is 0.35cm long.

V = π * (0.03cm)^2 * 0.35 cm = 9.896*10^-4 cm^3

Now we have the volume of 192-Ir, let's use the density provided to get it's mass, and once we have the mass let's use the molar mass to get the amount of moles. After getting the amount of moles, we use Avogadro's number to convert moles into number of atoms. See the calculation below and see if all units "cancel":

9.896*10^-4 cm^3 * (22.42 g/cm3) * (1 mole / 191.963 g) * (6.022x10^23 atoms /mole)

= 6.96 x 10^19 atoms of Ir-122 are present.
