Answer: The first isotope has a relative abundance of 79% and last isotope has a relative abundance of 11%
Explanation: Given that the average atomic mass(M) of magnesium
= 24.3050amu
Mass of first isotope (M1) = 23.9850amu
Mass of middle isotope (M2)=24.9858amu
Mass of last isotope(M3)= 25.9826amu
Total abundance = 1
Abundance of middle isotope = 0.10
Let abundance of first and last isotope be x and y respectively.
x+0.10+y =1
x = 0.90-y
M = M1 × % abundance of first isotope + M2 × % of middle isotope +M3 ×% of last isotope
24.03050= 23.985× x + 24.9858 ×0.10 + 25.9826×y
Substitute x= 0.90-y
Then
y = 0.11
Since y=0.11, then
x= 0.90-0.11
x=0.79
Therefore the relative abundance of the first isotope = 11% and the relative abundance of the last isotope = 79%
For the first one the answer is B. and the second one is D.
From 5 L to moles, just divide 5 by 22.4. I got 0.22 moles of H2.
From 5 moles to liters, just multiply 5 by 22.4. I got 112 L of H2.
