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 %

Ammonium carbonate decomposes upon heating according to the following balanced equation: (NH4)2CO3 (s) → 2 NH3 (g) + CO2 (g) + H
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

7.63 L is the produced volume of ammonia.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction of decomposition is this:

(NH₄)₂CO₃ (s) →  2NH₃ (g) + CO₂ (g) + H₂O (g)

We convert the mass of carbonate to moles → 15 g . 1mol / 96g = 0.156 mol

Ratio is 1:2, so the 0.156 moles will produce the double of moles of ammonia. → 0.156 . 2 = 0.312 moles

We use now,  the Ideal Gases Law to determine the volume

Pressure . Volume = moles . R . T

T → 25.5°C + 273  = 298.5K

1 atm . V = 0.312 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 298.5K

V = (0.312 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 298.5K) / 1 atm → 7.63 L

What will happen if an electric current is flowing through a cord and a magnet is brought near the cord?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The magnet will exert a force on the electric current

Explanation:

The electric current flowing through the cord will experience magnetic force due to presence of magnetic field created by the magnet brought near it.

The magnitude of the magnetic force experienced by this flowing current is given as;

F = qvB

where;

q is charge of electron (measured in coulomb's, C)

v is the speed of the flowing current (m/s)

B is the magnetic field strength (T)

Therefore, the magnet will exert a force on the electric current

E What caused the little puddle of water to appear under the syringe tip? its for sciences ​
fredd [130]

LMBO, for science.

Answer:

<em>The increase in kinetic energy leads to leakage of water from the syringe. When the outside temperature is more than the liquid temperature, say the syringe is out in sunshine, then the liquid becomes slightly warmer.</em>
