Answer:

The isotopic mass of 41K is 40.9574 amu

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The isotopes are:  

39K with an isotopic mass of 38.963707u and natural abundance of 93.2581%

40K with an isotopic mass of 39.963999u

41K wit natural abundance of 6.7302 %

Average atomic mass =39.098 amu  

Step 2: Calculate natural abundance of 40 K

100 % - 93.2581 % - 6.7302 %

100 % = 0.0117 %

Step 3: Calculate isotopic mass of 41K

39.098 = 38.963707 * 0.932581 + 39.963999 * 0.000117 + X * 0.067302

39.098 = 36.33681 + 0.0046758 +  X * 2.067302

X = 40.9574 amu

The isotopic mass of 41K is 40.9574 amu

Consider two equal-volume balloons under the same conditions of temperature and pressure. One contains helium, and the other con
Olegator [25]

Answer:

1. Number of gas particles (atoms or molecules)

2. Number of moles of gas

3. Average kinetic energy

Explanation:

Since the two gas has the same volume and are under the same conditions of temperature and pressure,

Then:

1. They have the same number of mole because 1 mole of any gas at stp occupies 22.4L. Now both gas will occupy the same volume because they have the same number of mole

2. Since they have the same number of mole, then they both contain the same number of molecules as explained by Avogadro's hypothesis which states that at the same temperature and pressure, 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules or atoms.

3. Being under the same conditions of temperature and pressure, they both have the same average kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of gas is directly proportional to the temperature. Now that both gas are under same temperature, their average kinetic energy are the same.

Determine whether each molecule given below is polar or nonpolar. of2
sergejj [24]

Answer : The molecule OF_2 is a polar molecule.

Explanation :

Polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is asymmetrical then the molecule is polar.

Non-polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is symmetrical then the molecule is non-polar.

The given molecule is, OF_2

The electronegativities of oxygen and fluorine are different. The molecular geometry of OF_2 is bent. As, Fluorine is more elctronegative than the oxygen. So, the arrows putting towards the more electronegative element i.e, fluorine. These arrows do not balance each other. Due to this, the asymmetrical arrangement of these bonds makes the molecule polar.

Hence, the given molecule OF_2 is polar.

A student titrated 20 ml of 0.410 m hcl with 0.320 m naoh. determine the volume of naoh needed at equivalence point
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

25.6mL NaOH

Explanation:

We are given the Molarity of the solution (\frac{moles}{liters}) and the volume of the solution (.02L).

By multiplying the two together, we can find the moles of solution that are reacted with HCl.

moles = \frac{.410 moles}{L} *.02L

This gives us .0082 moles of HCl.

We then find the moles of NaOH that are needed to react with the HCl using the equation.

HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H_{2} O

As HCl and NaCl have a 1:1 ratio, we need .0082 mol of NaOH.

Dividing this value by the Molarity of the solution

\frac{.0082mol}{.320mol/L}

Gives us the answer, in Liters (.0256), which we can then divide by 100 convert to mL.
