Answer:

%isotope 1 = 68.92%

%isotope 2 = 31.08 %

Explanation:

we have the following data:

misotope 1 = 62.9296 u

misotope 2 = 64.9278 u

maverage = 63.55 u

%isotope 1 = X

%isotope 2 = 100-X

the average atomic mass is equal to:

maverage = [(misotope 1x%isotope 1)+(misotope 2x%isotope 2)/100]

substituting values:

63.55 = [(62.9296 x X)+(64.9272 x (100-X))]/100

clearing the X:

X = 68.92

therefore we have to:

%isotope 1 = 68.92%

%isotope 2 = 100-68.92 = 31.08 %

Draw the alkyl bromide(s) you would use in a malonic ester synthesis of ethyl 3-methylbutanoate.
Gennadij [26K]

The structure of the alkyl bromides used in a malonic ester synthesis of ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate.

Ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate by Malonic ester synthesis.

The alkylation of diethyl malonate or a related ester of malonic acid at the carbon alpha (immediately next) to both carbonyl groups, followed by conversion to a substituted acetic acid, characterizes the chemical reaction known as the malonic ester synthesis.

As a result, it is evident from the structure of ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate that ethyl and methyl bromides are the alkyl bromides employed.

What amount of sucrose (C12H22O11) should be added to 5.83 mol water to lower the vapor pressure of water at 50 °C to 72.0 torr?
Triss [41]

Answer:

The amount of sucrose that must be added is 1.66 moles

Explanation:

Colligative property of lowering vapor pressure has this formula:

Vapor pressure of pure solvent (P°) - Vapor pressure of solution = P° . Xm

We have both vapor pressure (pure solvent and solution9, so let's determine the ΔP

ΔP = 92.6 Torr - 72 Torr = 20.6 Torr

Let's add the data in the formula

20.6 Torr = 92.6 Torr . Xm

Xm = Mole fraction of solute → (mol of solute/ mol of solute + mol of solvent)

Mol of solvent = 5.83 mol (data from the problem)

Therefore Xm = 20.6 Torr / 92.6 Torr → 0.222

Let's find out the moles of solute (our unknown value)

0.22 = moles of solute / moles of solute + 5.83 moles of solvent

0.222 (moles of solute + 5.83 moles of solvent) = moles of solute

0.222 moles of solute + 1.29 moles of solvent = moles of solute

1.29 moles of solvent = moles of solute - 0.222 moles of solute

1.29 moles = 0.778 moles of solute

1.29 / 0.778 = moles of solute → 1.66 moles

Complete the following table for the three key subatomic particles.
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete without the table

Explanation:

The missing table is attached to this answer.

There are three subatomic particles found in an atom; protons, neutrons and electrons. The properties of the subatomic particles will be classified under the following subheadings (which are the empty columns/boxes in the attachment)

SYMBOL

The symbol of proton is "p⁺", the symbol of neutron is "n⁰" and the symbol of electron is "e⁻".

CHARGE

Looking at the symbol of the subatomic particles, one can guess the charge of each of the particles from the superscript.

Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged while neutrons have no charge/electrically neutral.

The relative charge of proton is +1 while it's absolute charge is +1.60218 × 10⁻¹⁹

The charge of a proton was first determined by Ernest Rutherford using the gold-foil experiment

The relative charge of electron is -1 while it's absolute charge is -1.60218 × 10⁻¹⁹

The charge of an electron was first determined by R. Milikan using the oil-drop experiment

The relative charge and absolute charge of neutron is 0

The charge of a neutron was first determined by (or credited to) James Chadwick.

MASS

The relative mass (amu) of proton is 1.00727 while that of neutron is 1.00866. The relative mass (amu) of an electron is 0.00054858 while it's absolute mass (g) is 9.10939 × 10⁻²⁴.

The mass of an electron was first measured by J. J. Thomson.

The mass of a proton was first measured by (or credited to) Ernest Rutherford.

The mass of a neutron was first measured by James Chadwick.

LOCATION

The protons and neutrons <u>are located inside the nucleus</u> which is found in the centre of an atom while the electron(s)<u> is/are found outside the nucleus but within the atom</u>.
