Mixture Problem A jeweler has five rings, each weigh- ing 18 g, made of an alloy of 10% silver and 90% gold. She decides to melt

down the rings and add enough silver to reduce the gold content to 75%. How much silver should she add?

Answer:

Explanation:

Total weight of 5 rings

= 18 x 5

= 90 g

silver = 10% of 90 g

= 9 g

gold = 81 g

Let silver added = x gm

Total weight = 90 +x

75% of (90+x) is gold

= 3/4 x  (90+x)g is  gold

So  3/4 x  (90+x)  = 81

(90+x)  = 81 x 4 / 3

= 108

x = 18 g

silver to be added = 18g .

Calculate the atomic mass of gallium, symbol Ga. Gallium has two isotopes: Ga-69 and Ga-71. The relative abundance of Ga-69 is 6
amm1812

Answer:

The atomic mass of gallium (Ga) = <u>69.723 g/mol</u>

Explanation:

Given: Two isotopes of Gallium (Ga) are Gallium-69 (⁶⁹Ga) and Gallium-71 (⁷¹Ga)

<u>For ⁶⁹Ga: </u>

Relative abundance = 60.12% = 60.12 ÷ 100 = 0.6012; Atomic mass = 68.9257 g/mol

<u>For ⁷¹Ga:</u>

Relative abundance = 39.88% = 39.88 ÷ 100 = 0.3988; Atomic mass = 70.9249 g/mol

∴ The atomic mass of Ga = (Relative abundance of ⁶⁹Ga × Atomic mass of ⁶⁹Ga) + (Relative abundance of ⁷¹Ga × Atomic mass of ⁷¹Ga)

⇒ Atomic mass of Ga = (0.6012 × 68.9257 g/mol) + (0.3988 × 70.9249 g/mol) = <u>69.723 g/mol</u>

<u>Therefore, the atomic mass of gallium (Ga) = 69.723 g/mol</u>

N⁻³ and Na⁺ have same<br> A Atomic no. <br>B Mass No. <br>C No. of electrons <br>D No. of neutrons​
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

C.) No. of electrons

Explanation:

A.) is incorrect. The atomic number represents the number of protons in an element. Nitrogen (N) and sodium (Na) always have a differing amount of protons.

B.) is incorrect. The mass number represents the number of protons and neutrons in an element. The number of neutrons and protons are specific to each element (disregarding isotopes). When elements ionize, these amounts are not altered.

C.) is correct. When an element becomes an ion, the number of electrons change. When nitrogen gains 3 electrons and sodium loses 1 electron, they end up having the same number of electrons (10).

D.) is incorrect. When elements ionize, the number of neutrons does not change. The only way two different elements could have the same number of neutrons is if at least one of the elements is an isotope. Isotopes are two or more atoms of the same element that differ in their amounts of neutrons.
