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

A stack of 15 pennies is immersed into a 100 mL graduate initially containing 20.6 mL of water. The volume in the graduate cylin
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: 5.4

Explanation: The Law of Impenetrability says that two objects can't occupy the same space at the same time; therefore, the pennies and the water can't occupy the same space at the same time. Without the pennies the water level read 20.6 mL, dropping in the pennies gives a level of 26.0.

On a mission to a newly discovered planet, an astronaut finds chlorine abundances of 13.85 % for 35Cl and 86.15 % for 37Cl. What
diamong [38]

Answer:

36.693

Explanation:

From the question given, the following were obtained:

Let 35Cl be isotope A and 37Cl be isotope

For isotope A (35Cl),

Mass number = 34.9700

Abundance = 13.85 %

For isotope B (37Cl),

Mass number = 36.9700

Abundance = 86.15 %

Atomic mass =

[( Mass of AxAbundance A)/100] + [(Mass of BxAbundance B)/100]

[(34.97x13.85)/100] + [(36.97x86.15)/100]

= 36.693
