Answer:

Average atomic mass = 55.83 amu

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ third\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ third\ isotope})

Given that:

For first isotope, Fe-54:

% = 6 %

Mass = 53.94 amu

For second isotope, Fe-56:

% = 92 %

Mass = 55.93 amu

For third isotope, Fe-57:

% = 2 %

Mass = 56.94 amu

Thus,  

Average\ atomic\ mass=\frac{6}{100}\times {53.94}+\frac{92}{100}\times {55.93}+\frac{2}{100}\times {56.94}

<u>Average atomic mass = 55.83 amu</u>

Answer : The balanced chemical reaction will be:

3Ca(s)+2Al(NO_2)_3(aq)\rightarrow 2Al(s)+3Ca(NO_2)_2(aq)

Explanation :

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

When solid calcium metal reacts with aqueous aluminum nitrate then it gives aqueous calcium nitrate and solid aluminium.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

3Ca(s)+2Al(NO_2)_3(aq)\rightarrow 2Al(s)+3Ca(NO_2)_2(aq)

Margarita [4]

Answer:

This question is incomplete; the complete part is:

A) All cell have a cell wall.

B) All cell arise from pre-existing cells.

C) All cell are capable of photosynthesis.

D) All cell can develop into any other type of cell.

The answer is B

Explanation:

The commonly known universal theory proposed in 1838 took the contribution from three remarkable scientists namely: botanist Matthias Schleiden, anatomist Theodor Schwann and biologist Rudolph Virchow. According to the question, Mathias discovered that all plants are made of cells, Schwann determined that all animals are made of cells while Virchow determined that all living things are composed of cells.

However, in addition to Virchow's discovery, he also discovered and proposed that "All cell arise from pre-existing cells", which till date forms part of the three components of the cell theory. The three parts are:

- Cell is the fundamental and basic unit of all living things.

- All living things are made up of one or more cells

- All cells arise from pre-existing cells

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

1, just I) color.

Explanation:

Physical properties are the properties that can be observed without changing the composition of a substance, such as color, temperature, density, and boiling point.

A physical change is a change in the substance that only modifies its aggregation state, such as solidification, and boiling.

Chemical properties are the properties that need a reaction to being observed, such as the combustibility, which needs a combustion reaction to being quantified.

When a chemical reaction occurs, and the composition of the substance change, it's a chemical change.

So, the heating copper with carbon is a chemical reaction, and purification by electrolysis is too. Color is the only physical property.
