To calculate the average atomic weight, each exact atomic weight is multiplied by its percent abundance, then, add the results together.  If the natural abundance of 63Cu is assigned x, the natural abundance of 65Cu is 1-x (the two abundance always add up to 1). So the solution is: (63)(x)+(65)(1-x) = 63.55, 63x+65-65x=63.55, x=0.725=72.5%. The natural abundance of 63Cu is 72.5%, that of 65Cu is 1-72.5%=27.5%.

When an egg is boiled in a pot of water on the stove, there is more than one kind of heat transfer. Heat is transferred from the
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Stove → Pot = conduction, Pot → Egg = convection.

Explanation:

There are three ways in which heat is being transferred from one medium to the other and the means are; radiation, conduction and convection heat transfer.

Radiation is the process in which heat is being transferred through emission in form of electromagnetism. Conduction heat transfer Is the process in which heat is being transferred through contact that is two bodies touching each other. Convection heat transfer is the kind of heat that happens through gases.

Since the heat from the stove touching the pot is the conduction heat transfer.

After the water has been heated up, the gas from the water makes the convection heat transfer.

A gas is at a pressure of 4.30 atm. what is this pressure in kilopascals? in mm hg?
Monica [59]
Units to measure pressure are as follows
atm - atmospheric pressure units
kPa - kilo Pascals
mm Hg - milimeters Hg
conversion units are;
 1 atm = 101 325 Pa
therefore 4.30 atm = 101 325 Pa / atm x 4.30 atm = 435.7 Pa

1 atm = 760.0 mm Hg
 4.30 atm = 760.0 mm Hg / atm x 4.30 atm = 3268 mm Hg

answers are 435.7 Pa and 3268 mm Hg
