Chlorine has two isotopes. Chlorine-35 has an actual mass of 34.9689 u and chlorine-37 has a mass of 36.9659 u. In any sample of

chlorine atoms, 75.771% will be chlorine-35 and 24.229% will be chlorine 37. Calculate the average atomic mass of chlorine. 2. Copper has two isotopes. Copper-63, which has an atomic mass of 62.93 u and copper-65, which has an atomic mass of 64.93 u. In any sample of copper atoms, 69.1% will be copper-63 and 30.9% will be copper-65. Calculate the average atomic mass of naturally occurring copper.

Answer: 1. The average atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453u

2. The average atomic mass of copper is 63.5 u

Explanation:

Average atomic mass is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i

1. For chlorine:

\text{Average atomic mass of chlorine }=(34.9689\times \frac{75.771}{100})+(36.9659\times \frac{24.229}{100})=35.453u

2.  For copper:

\text{Average atomic mass of chlorine }=(62.93\times \frac{69.1}{100})+(64.93\times \frac{30.9}{100})=63.5u

The isotope of carbon used in archaeological dating is 14^6C . How many protons, neutrons, and electrons does an atom of 14^6C h
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

6

8

6

Explanation:

 Isotope given:

                       ¹⁴₆C

In specie written as this;  

   Superscript  = Mass number

   Subscript  = Atomic number

To find the protons, it is the same as the atomic number;

                Protons  = Atomic number  = 6

Neutrons have no charges;

 Neutrons  = Mass number - Atomic number  =

  Neutrons  = 14 - 6  = 8

The number of electrons is the same as the atomic number = 6

Note the formula

\boxed{\sf Mass\:no=No\:of\:protons+No\:of\:neutrons}

For X:-

  • No of protons:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 19-10=9protons

  • It is Fluorine.

For Y:-

  • No of protons:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 16-8=8protons

  • It is Oxygen.

Option D is correct

Consider the following scenario
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Going by the clues that it is between Silver Flouride (AgF) and Sodium Fluoride (NaF) and since it is an aqueous solution , the 1 liter bottle is likely to be Sodium Chloride( NaCl). Going by the reaction,

AgF + NaCl= AgCl + NaF

Here, the color of AgCl is white, hence the solution cannot be AgCl.

Determination of NaCl

Determination of NaCl can be done by Mohr's Method or Volhard's method. But results in Volhard's method are more accurate . Its uses the method of back titration with Potassium Thiocynate which forms a AgCl precipitate . Prior to titration,excess AgNO3 ( The problem also has a clue that excess reagents are present in the lab ) is added to the NaCl solution so that all the Cl- ions react with Ag+. Fe3+ is then added as an indicator and the solution is titrated with KSCN to form a silver thiocyannite precipitate (AgSCN). Once all the silver has reacted, a slight excess of SCN- reacts with Fe3+ to form Fe(SCN)3 dark red complex. The concentration of Cl- is determined by subtracting the titer findings of Ag+ ions that reacted to form AgSCN from the Ag NO3 moles added to the solution. This is used because pH of the solution is acidic. If the pH of solution is basic, Mohr's method is used.

Reactions

Ag+ (aq)+ Cl-(aq) = AgCl(aq)

Ag+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = AgSCN(aq)

Fe3+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = [FeSCN]2- (aq)
