Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

               Atomic mass               Abundance

Mg -24 =    23.9850                         79%

Mg -25 =    24.9858                         10%  

Mg - 26=          ?                                  ?

Process

1.- Find the abundance of Mg-26

The sum of the abundance of the three isotopes equals 100%

         

 Abundance Mg-24 + Abundance-Mg-25 + Abundance-26 = 100

            79 + 10 + Abundance-26 = 100

            Abundance Mg-26 = 100 -89

           Abundance Mg-26 = 11%

2.- Find the atomic mass of Mg-26, the average atomic mass is 24.31 amu

Average atomic mass = (abundance)(atomic mass- 24) + (abundance)

                                         (atomic mass-25) + (abundance)(atomic mass-26)

    24.31 = (0.79)(23.9850)+ (0.10)(24.9858) + (Atomic mass-26)(0.11)

    24.31 = 18.94815 + 2.4986 + 0.11(atomic mass-26)

    24.31 = 21.4342 + 0.11(atomic mass- 26)

    0.11(atomic mass-26) = 24.31 - 21.4342

    0.11(atomic mass-26) = 2.8758

    Atomic mass-26 = 2.8758/0.11

 <u>   Atomic mass-26 = 26.1436 amu</u>

Answer:

The atomic mass of Mg-26 is 25.9843 amu and has a natural abundance of 11%

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Isotopes of Magnesium:

⇒ Mg - 24 = 23.9850 amu ⇒ 79 %

⇒ Mg - 25 = 24.9858 amu ⇒ 10%

⇒ Mg - 26 = ? amu ⇒ 11 %

atomic mass of magnesium = 24.305 amu

0.79 * 23.9850 + 0.10 * 24.9858 + 0.11 * x = 24.305

18.94815 + 2.49858 +0.11x =24.305

0.11x = 2.85827

x = 25.9843 amu

The atomic mass of Mg-26 is 25.9843 amu and has a natural abundance of 11%

The reaction between the reactants would be:

CH₃NH₂ + HCl ↔ CH₃NH₃⁺ + Cl⁻

Let the conjugate acid undergo hydrolysis. Then, apply the ICE approach.

             CH₃NH₃⁺ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + CH₃NH₂
I                0.11                       0             0
C               -x                          +x           +x
E            0.11 - x                     x             x

Ka = [H₃O⁺][CH₃NH₂]/[CH₃NH₃⁺]

Since the given information is Kb, let's find Ka in terms of Kb.

Ka = Kw/Kb, where Kw = 10⁻¹⁴

So,
Ka = 10⁻¹⁴/5×10⁻⁴ = 2×10⁻¹¹ = [H₃O⁺][CH₃NH₂]/[CH₃NH₃⁺]
2×10⁻¹¹ = [x][x]/[0.11-x]
Solving for x,
x = 1.483×10⁻⁶ = [H₃O⁺]

Since pH = -log[H₃O⁺],
pH = -log(1.483×10⁻⁶)
<em>pH = 5.83</em>

Consider the reaction.
N76 [4]

Answer: m = 50 g ZnSO4

Explanation: First is convert the moles of Zn to the moles of ZnSO4 by having their mole ratio which is 2:2 based from the balanced equation. Next is convert the moles of ZnSO4 to mass using its molar mass.

0.311 mole Zn x 2 moles ZnSO4 / 2 moles Zn

= 0.311 moles ZnSO4

0.311 moles ZnSO4 x 161 g ZnSO4 / 1 mole ZnSO4

= 50 ZnSO4
