The atomic weight of Ga is 69.72 amu. There are only two naturally occurring isotopes of gallium:
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

71 Ga has a naturally abundance of 36%

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Gallium has 2 naturally occurring isotopes: this means the abundance of the 2 isotopes together is 100 %. The atomic weight of Ga is 69.72 amu. This is the average of all the isotopes.

Since the average mass of 69.72 is closer to the mass of 69 Ga, this means 69 Ga will be more present than 71 Ga

Percentage 69 Ga> Percentage 71 Ga

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the abundance %

⇒Percentage of 71 Ga = X %

⇒Percentage of 69 Ga = 100 % - X %

The mass balance equation will be:

100*69.72 = x * 71 + (100 - x)*69

6972 = 71x + 6900 -69x

72 = 2x

x = 36 %

71 Ga has a naturally abundance of 36%

69 Ga has a naturally abundance of 64%

Why is gunshot residue important for a forensic scientist? What are the potential complications with this type of evidence?
erik [133]
A residue from a gunshot is most likely gun powder, which tells you what kind of bullet was shot and the type of gun that was used to shoot the target/victim/person. Some complications may be that there is more than one gun or weapon which uses that residue, so it may be hard to pinpoint it and the bullet can't really tell you who it is unless there's DNA on the bullet, and the chemicals of the bullet may even destroy evidence.
