<u>Answer:</u> The two isotopes of boron differs in mass number rather than atomic number.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are defined as the chemical species that have same atomic number but differ in their mass number.

Boron is the 5th element of the periodic table and have 2 naturally occurring isotopes. The isotopes are : B-10 and B-11

<u>For _5^{10}\textrm{B} isotope:</u>

Percentage abundance of this isotope = 20 %

Atomic number = 5

Mass number = 10

<u>For _5^{11}\textrm{B} isotope:</u>

Percentage abundance of this isotope = 80 %

Atomic number = 5

Mass number = 11

Hence, the two isotopes of boron differs in mass number rather than atomic number.

Calculate the molarity of the two solutions.
daser333 [38]

1. 0.33 M

2. 0.278 M

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Molarity is a way to express the concentration of the solution

Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solute or mmol in each ml of solution

\large{\boxed {\bold {M ~ = ~ \frac {n} {V}}}

Where

M = Molarity

n = Number of moles of solute

V = Volume of solution

1. 0.350 mol of NaOH in 1.05 L of solution.

n=0.35

V=1.05 L

Molarity :

\tt M=\dfrac{0.35}{1.05}=0.33

2. 14.3 g of NaCl in 879 mL of solution.

mol NaCl(MW=58.5 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{14.3~g}{58.5~g/mol}=0.244

Molarity :

\tt M=\dfrac{0.244}{0.879~L}\\\\M=0.278

What does the law of conservation of energy impy
Rasek [7]
The law of conservation of energy is that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transferred or transformed from one form to another (including transformation into or from mass, as matter). The total amount of energy in a closed system never changes. energy in a system may be transformed so that it resides in a different state.
