Naturally occuring boron is 80.20% boron-11 (atomic mass 11.01 amu) and 19.80% of some other isotope. What must the atomic mass

of this second isotope be in order to account for the 10.81 amu average atomic mass of boron?.

You will have to do some math. 

<span>80.2 × 11.01 + 19.8 × x = 100 * 10.81. </span>

<span>x is the mass in amu of the second isotope. </span>

<span>Solve for x. </span>

<span>19.8 × x = 100 * 10.81 - 80.2 × 11.01 </span>
<span>19.8 × x = 1081 - 883.00 = 198.00 </span>
<span>x = 1964.00 / 19.8 = 10.00 </span>

<span>The mass of the other isotope is 10.00 amu.</span>

kkurt [141]

Answer:

Addition of a catalyst can speed up a reaction by providing an alternate reaction pathway that has a lower activation energy

Explanation:

A catalyst is an agent that increases the rate of a chemical reaction by providing an alternate pathway for the reaction that requires a lower activation energy. As the requirement for activation energy is less in the presence of a catalyst, there are more reactant particles becoming involved in the chemical reaction and as such there are more products formed per unit time, or there is an increase in the rate of the reaction

Example of catalyst include

1. Addition of potassium permanganate to hydrogen peroxide to aid in the rapid decomposition into water and oxygen

2. Platinum serves as a catalyst in the complete combustion of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide.

Burka [1]
Answer is: ammonia experience only dispersion intermolecular forces with BF₃ (boron trifluoride) because BF₃ is only nonpolar molecule (vectors of dipole moments cansel each other, dipole moment is zero).
The London dispersion force (intermolecular force) <span>is a temporary attractive </span>force between molecules.
