The mass defect for the isotope thorium-234 if given mass is 234.04360 amu is 1.85864 amu.
<h3>How do we calculate atomic mass?</h3>
Atomic mass (A) of any atom will be calculated as:
A = mass of protons + mass of neutrons
In the Thorium-234:
Number of protons = 90
Number of neutrons = 144
Mass of one proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of one neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass of thorium-234 = 90(1.00728) + 144(1.00866)
Mass of thorium-234 = 90.6552 + 145.24704 = 235.90224 amu
Given mass of thorium-234 = 234.04360 amu
Mass defect = 235.90224 - 234.04360 = 1.85864 amu
Hence required value is 1.85864 amu.

Answer:
c. 77 %
Explanation:
Percent mass (% mass) of solute = mass of solute/mass of solution × 100
According to this question, a mountain dew solution weighing 300grams contains 231 g of sugar. This means that:
% mass of sugar = 231g/300g × 100
% mass of sugar = 0.77 × 100
% mass of sugar = 77%.
Answer:
The months became darker colored and more darker colored moths were sighted.
Explanation:
All of the new air pollution caused the moths to alter there wings and bodies. The moths had no adaptation to this air pollution, causing them to be discolored.
