The CRC Handbook, a large reference book of chemical and physical data, lists two isotopes of indium (). The atomic mass of 4.28

% of indium atoms is 112.904 u. Through a typographical oversight, the atomic mass of the second isotope is not printed. Calculate that atomic mass, taking the tabulated atomic mass of indium as 114.818 u.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of second isotope of indium is 114.904 amu

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average atomic mass of an element 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:

  .....(1)

Let the mass of isotope 2 of indium be 'x'

  • <u>For isotope 1:</u>

Mass of isotope 1 = 112.904 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 4.28 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.0428

  • <u>For isotope 2:</u>

Mass of isotope 2 = x amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = [100 - 4.28] = 95.72 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.9572

Average atomic mass of indium = 114.818 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

114.818=[(112.904\times 0.0428)+(x\times 0.9572)]\\\\x=114.904amu

Hence, the mass of second isotope of indium is 114.904 amu

What is the concentration of a solution with a volume of 2.5 liters containing 600 grams of calcium phosphate?​
trapecia [35]

Answer:

1.12M

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of solution  = 2.5L

Mass of Calcium phosphate  = 600g

Unknown:

Concentration  = ?

Solution:

Concentration is the number of moles of solute in a particular solution.

Now, we find the number of moles of the calcium phosphate from the given mass;

        Formula of calcium phosphate  = Ca₃PO₄

         molar mass = 3(40) + 31 + 4(16) = 215g/mol  

Number of moles of  Ca₃PO₄  = \frac{600}{215}   = 2.79moles

   Now;

  Concentration  = \frac{Number of moles }{volume }  

 Concentration  = \frac{2.79}{2.5}   = 1.12M

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Dolphins use a method called echolocation to detect things such as obstacles and prey in the water. If a dolphin swimming in seawater at 25°C sends a 220-dB click with a frequency of 120.0 Hz, and then detects the reflection of the click exactly one-twentieth of a second later, approximately how far away is the object?
