How to find percentage of isotopes

Chemistry
1 answer:
MissTica4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

given an element U of relative atomic mass 10.8 for example with isotopes U-10 and U-11 we can get their percentages by the following steps.

Explanation:

1:let the Percentage of U-10 equal to X% and percentage of U-11equal to Y%.

2:The addition of X% and Y% equal to 100%.

3:X%=100%-Y%

4:X% of U-10 +Y% of U-11=10.8

5: substitute 3 in 4.

6: i.e (100-Y)% of U-10+Y% of U-11=10.8.

7:(100-Y)/100 of 10 +Y/100 of 11=10.8.

8:100-Y/10 +11Y=10.8.

9:(1000-10Y+11Y)/100=10.8.

10:1000+Y=10.8*100

11:1000+Y=1080.

12:Y=1080-1000.

13:Y=80.

14: from 3,X=100%-Y%.

X=100%-80%=20%.

15: Therefore, the percentage of isotopes in the isotopic mixture are 20% U-10 and 80% U-11.

What is the Ea for the exothermic reaction A)332.6 kJ B)-85.1 kJ C)251.0 kJ D) -251.0 kJ
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Option C. 251 kJ

Explanation:

The activation energy (Ea) of a given reaction is the minimum energy that must be overcomed for reactant to proceed to product.

The activation energy (Ea) can be obtained from an energy profile diagram by simply calculating the difference between the energy of the activation complex (i.e the peak) and the energy of the reactant.

Thus, we can obtain the activation energy for the reaction above as follow:

Activation complex = 332.6 kJ

Energy of reactant = 81.6 kJ

Activation energy =?

Activation energy = Activation complex – Energy of reactant

Activation energy = 332.6 – 81.6

Activation energy = 251 kJ

Therefore, the activation energy of the reaction is 251 kJ

For each compound below, identify any polar covalent bonds and indicate the direction of the dipole moment using the symbols 84
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

H+  ----- Br-

H+  ----- Cl-

O₋₋ -----2H++

CH3 ----- O-   ------ H+

Explanation:

Dipole moment occurs when there is bonding between a very strong electronegative element and hydrogen atom.

Electronegative elements are the element which attract electrons towards themselves, (that is they have strong affinity for electrons).

Generally, group 7 elements (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine) of the periodic table are highly electronegative

Need help with this chem question (multiple choice)
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Explanation:

Isomers are molecules with the same formula but different structure. If you look at the previous structures and count the number of C and H, you find that  A and the molecule from the question has the same number of C and H, but their structures are different.
