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 %

What is the difference between a transition metal and an f-element?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:  The transition elements are in the d-block, and in the d-orbital have valence electrons. They can form several states of oxidation and contain different ions. Inner transition elements are in the f-block, and in the f-orbital have valence electrons.

A hydrogen atom requires a minimum energy of 2.18×10^-18 J atom to remove an electron from its ground state level. Determine whe
frosja888 [35]
Just find the energy of the <span>blueviolet light with a wavelength of 434.0 nm using the formula:

E  = hc / lambda

E = energy
c= speed of light =  3 x 10^8 m/s
h = planck's constant =  6.6 x 10^{-34}  m^2 kg / s
lambda =  434 nm =  434 x 10^{-9} m

Putting these values (with appropriate units) in the above formula :

we get:  Energy, E = 4.5 x 10^{-19} J

E = 0.45 x 10^{-18} J

Now, the </span>minimum energy is 2.18×10^-{18} J but our energy is 0.45 x 10^{-18} J which is less.
<span>Means the electron will not be removed

What is a hot spot?<br> Own words
Grace [21]

Answer: Hotspot: A hotspot is a physical location where people can access the Internet, typically using Wi-Fi, via a wireless local area network (WLAN) with a router connected to an Internet service provider. ... While many public hotspots offer free wireless access on an open network, others require payment.

A hot spot is an area on Earth over a mantle plume or an area under the rocky outer layer of Earth, called the crust, where magma is hotter than surrounding magma. The magma plume causes melting and thinning of the rocky crust and widespread volcanic activity.
