<u>Answer:</u> The fractional abundance of Ir-191 is 0.372

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i   .....(1)

Let the fractional abundance of Ir-191 be x and that of Ir-193 isotope be (1-x)

<u>For isotope 1 (Ir-191):</u>

Mass of isotope 1 = 190.96058 amu

Fractional abundance of Ir-191 = x

<u>For isotope 1 (Ir-193):</u>

Mass of isotope 1 = 192.96292 amu

Fractional abundance of Ir-193 = (1 - x)

Average atomic mass of iridium = 192.217 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

192.217=[(190.96058\times x)+(192.96292\times (1-x))]\\\\x=0.372

Hence, the fractional abundance of Ir-191 is 0.372

If lon X has a charge of 2+ and lon Y has a charge of 1-, the chemical the formula of the ionic
Monica [59]

The chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

<h3>Ionic compounds</h3>
  • Ionic compounds are compounds which are formed from the combination of negatively charged and positively charged ion.
  • Positively charged ions are formed by loss of electrons
  • Negatively-charged ions are formed from gain of electrons

<h3>Formation of ionic compounds</h3>

During the formation of the ionic compound between an ion X that has a charge of 2+ and ion Y has a charge of 1-, two negatively charged ions of Y are required to form a neutral ionic ionic compound when they react with X.

The chemical the formula of the ionic compound they form is as follows;

X²⁺  + 2Y⁻ ---> XY₂

Therefore, the chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

how many moles of potassium dichromate (k2cr2o7) are required to prepare a 250-ml solution of with a concentration of 2.16 m?
Eva8 [605]

The moles of potassium dichromate , K₂Cr₂O₇ are required to prepare a 250 mL solution of with a concentration of 2.16 M  is 0.54 mol.

given that :

molarity = 2.16 M

volume = 250 mL = 0.25 L

the molarity is given as :

molarity = number of moles / volumes in L

from this we can calculate the number of moles, we get :

number of moles of K₂Cr₂O₇ = molarity × volume

number of moles of K₂Cr₂O₇ = 2.16 × 0.25

number of moles of K₂Cr₂O₇ = 0.54 mol

Thus, The moles of potassium dichromate , K₂Cr₂O₇ are required to prepare a 250 mL solution of with a concentration of 2.16 M  is 0.54 mol.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

1, just I) color.

Explanation:

Physical properties are the properties that can be observed without changing the composition of a substance, such as color, temperature, density, and boiling point.

A physical change is a change in the substance that only modifies its aggregation state, such as solidification, and boiling.

Chemical properties are the properties that need a reaction to being observed, such as the combustibility, which needs a combustion reaction to being quantified.

When a chemical reaction occurs, and the composition of the substance change, it's a chemical change.

So, the heating copper with carbon is a chemical reaction, and purification by electrolysis is too. Color is the only physical property.
