There are two naturally occurring isotopes of gallium:  mass of Ga-69 isotope is 68.9256 amu and its percentage abundance is 60.11%, let the mass of other isotope that is Ga-71 be X, the percentage abundance can be calculated as:

%Ga-71=100-60.11=39.89%

Atomic mass of an element is calculated by taking sum of atomic masses of its isotopes multiplied by their percentage abundance.

Thus, in this case:

Atomic mass= m(Ga-69)×%(Ga-69)+X×%(Ga-71)

From the periodic table, atomic mass of Ga is 69.723 amu.

Putting the values,

69.723 amu=(68.9256 amu)(\frac{60.11}{100})+X(\frac{39.89}{100})

Thus,

69.723 amu=41.4312 amu+X(\frac{39.89}{100})

Rearranging,

X=\frac{69.723 amu-41.4312 amu}{0.3989}=70.9246 amu

Therefore, mass of Ga-71 isotope is 70.9246 amu.

Answer: The atomic mass of gallium-71 is 70.92 amu.

Explanation:

Mass of isotope Ga-69 = 68.9256 amu

% abundance of isotope Ga-69 = 60.11% = \frac{60.11}{100}=0.6011

Mass of isotope Ga-71 = ?

% abundance of isotope Ga-71 = (100-60.11)% = \frac{39.89}{100}=0.3989

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=69.723amu

69.723 =\sum[(68.9256\times 0.6011)+(x\times 0.3989)]

x=70.92amu

Therefore, the atomic mass of gallium-71  is 70.92 amu.

What is the weight in grams of 3.36 × 10Ƴ molecules of copper sulfate (CuSOÁ)?
spin [16.1K]
Molar mass ( CuSO₄) = 159.609 g/mol

159.609 g ----------------- 6.02 x 10²³ molecules
         ? g ------------------ 3.36 x 10²³ molecules

mass = ( 3.36 x10²³) x 159.609 / 6.02 x 10²³

mass = 5.36 x 10²⁴ / 6.02 x 10²³

mass = 8.90 g 

hope this helps!

Question 2 (5 points)
blagie [28]

The water in Glass A is cooler than the water in Glass B; therefore, the particles in Glass A move slower.

Option D

<h3>Chemical Reactions</h3>

Generally,the experiment shows that  glass B temperature is higher than glass temperature A and this is given that observation that the solute dissolves faster in glass B than glass A.

Therefore,The water in Glass A is cooler than the water in Glass B; therefore, the particles in Glass A move slower.

Jim, because he ran a greater distance in the same time :)

if i add 25 ml of water to 135 ml of a 0.25 M NaOH solution what will the molarity of the diluted solution be​
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

0.21 M. (2 sig. fig.)

Explanation:

The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of the solute in each liter of the solution. The unit for molarity is M. One M equals to one mole per liter.

How many moles of NaOH in the original solution?

n = c \cdot V,

where

  • n is the number of moles of the solute in the solution.
  • c is the concentration of the solution. c = 0.25 \;\text{M} = 0.25\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1} for the initial solution.
  • V is the volume of the solution. For the initial solution, V = 135\;\textbf{mL} = 0.135\;\textbf{L} for the initial solution.

n = c\cdot V = 0.25\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1} \times 0.135\;\textbf{L} = 0.03375\;\text{mol}.

What's the concentration of the diluted solution?

\displaystyle c = \frac{n}{V}.

  • n is the number of solute in the solution. Diluting the solution does not influence the value of n. n = 0.03375\;\text{mol} for the diluted solution.
  • Volume of the diluted solution: 25\;\text{mL} + 135\;\text{mL}  = 160\;\textbf{mL} = 0.160\;\textbf{L}.

Concentration of the diluted solution:

\displaystyle c = \frac{n}{V} = \frac{0.03375\;\text{mol}}{0.160\;\textbf{L}} = 0.021\;\text{mol}\cdot\textbf{L}^{-1} = 0.021\;\text{M}.

The least significant number in the question comes with 2 sig. fig. Keep more sig. fig. than that in calculations but round the final result to 2 sig. fig. Hence the result: 0.021 M.
