How do you find the mass number of an isotope?

Chemistry

Answer:

The mass number of an isotope is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus. If you know that a nucleus has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, then its mass number is 12. If the nucleus has 6 protons and 7 neutrons, then its mass number is 13.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

C. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.

Explanation:

The burning of magnesium in air produces magnesium oxide as shown by the equation;

2Mg(s) + O2(g) -----> 2MgO(s)

The magnesium oxide solid is recovered as a white ash. This is a typical example of an oxidation reaction which is also a combustion reaction.

The reason has nothing at all to do with the assertion hence the answer given.

Magnesium oxide is basic just like the oxides of other metals and dissolves in water to yield an alkali.

Hydrogen sulfide,H2S, is a very toxic gas with a smell of rotten eggs. using the following: H2S+3/2 O2=SO2+H2O H2+1/2O2=H2O S+O2
Serga [27]

Answer:

ΔH = -20kJ

Explanation:

The enthalpy of formation of a compound is defined as the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements. For H₂S(g) the reaction that describes this process is:

H₂(g) + S(g) → H₂S(g)

Using Hess's law, it is possible to sum the enthalpies of several reactions to obtain the change in enthalpy of a particular reaction thus:

<em>(1) </em>H₂S(g) + ³/₂O₂(g) → SO₂(g) + H₂O(g) ΔH = -519 kJ

<em>(2) </em>H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH = -242 kJ

<em>(3) </em>S(g) + O₂(g) → SO₂(g) ΔH = -297 kJ

The sum of -(1) + (2) + (3) gives:

<em>-(1) </em>SO₂(g) + H₂O(g) → H₂S(g) + ³/₂O₂(g) ΔH = +519 kJ

<em>(2) </em>H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH = -242 kJ

<em>(3) </em>S(g) + O₂(g) → SO₂(g) ΔH = -297 kJ

<em>-(1) + (2) + (3): </em><em>H₂(g) + S(g) → H₂S(g) </em>

<em>ΔH =</em> +519kJ - 242kJ - 297kJ = <em>-20 kJ</em>

I hope it helps!

Three isotopes of argon occur in nature – 36 18Ar, 38 18Ar, 40 18Ar. Calculate the average atomic mass of argon to two decimal p
likoan [24]

Answer: 3) 39.96 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope Ar- 36 = 35.97 amu

% abundance of isotope Ar- 36= 0.337% = \frac{0.337}{100}=3.37\times 10^{-3}

Mass of isotope Ar- 38 = 37.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 0.063 % = \frac{0.063}{100}=6.3\times 10^{-4}

Mass of isotope Ar- 40 = 39.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 99.600 % = \frac{99.600}{100}=0.996

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}})

A=\sum[(35.97\times 3.37\times 10^{-3})+(37.96\times 6.3\times 10^{-4})+(39.96\times 0.996)]

A=39.96amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of argon is 39.96 amu
