<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

ira [324]

Answer:

35.42g

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction

BaCl2(aq) + K2CrO4(aq) → BaCrO4(s) + 2KCl(aq)

Step 2:

Determination of the limiting reactant.

It is important to determine which of the reactant is limiting the reaction as the limiting reactant is used to determine the maximum yield of the reaction. The limiting reactant can be determined as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of BaCl2 reacted with 1 mole of K2CrO4.

Therefore, 0.7 mole of BaCl2 will also react with 0.7 mol of K2CrO4.

From the above illustration, we can see that it requires a higher amount of K2CrO4 to react with 0.7 mol of BaCl2. This simply means that K2CrO4 is the limiting reactant.

Step 3:

Determination of the number of mole of BaCrO4 produced from the reaction.

The limiting reactant is used in this case.

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of K2CrO4 produced 1 mole of BaCrO4.

Therefore, 0.14 mole of K2CrO4 will also produce 0.14 mole of BaCrO4.

Step 4:

Converting 0.14 mole of BaCrO4 to grams.

This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of BaCrO4 = 137 + 52 + (16x4) = 137 + 52 + 64 = 253g/mol

Number of mole BaCrO4 = 0.14 mole

Mass of BaCrO4 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of BaCrO4 = 0.14 x 253

Mass of BaCrO4 = 35.42g

Therefore, 35.42g of BaCrO4 is produced from the reaction.

In the third period of the periodic table sodium is followed by magnesium aluminum silicon and phosphorus which of these element
wariber [46]
Answer:
            Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.

Explanation:
                   As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.

Elements and their atomic radius are as follow,

<span><span>Magnesium          0.160 nm

Aluminium           0.130 nm
