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

Which statement defines specific heat capacity for a given sample
avanturin [10]

The statement that defines the specific heat capacity for a given sample is the quantity of heat that is required to raise 1 g of the sample by 1°C (Kelvin) at a constant pressure.

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

Specific heat capacity is the of heat to increase the temperature per unit mass.

The formula to calculate the specific heat is Q = mct.

The options are attached here:

  1. The temperature of a given sample is 1 %.
  2. The temperature that a given sample can withstand.
  3. The quantity of heat that is required to raise the sample's temperature by 1 °C1 °C (Kelvin).
  4. The quantity of heat that is required to raise 1 g of the sample by 1°C (Kelvin) at a constant pressure.

Thus, the correct option is 4. The quantity of heat that is required to raise 1 g of the sample by 1°C (Kelvin) at a constant pressure.

At standard ambient temperature and pressure (SATP), a gas has density of 1.5328g/L. What is the molar mass of the gas?
ahrayia [7]

The standard ambient temperature and pressure are

Temperature =298 K

Pressure = 1atm

The density of gas is 1.5328 g/L

density = mass of gas per unit volume

the ideal gas equation is

PV = nRT

P = pressure = 1 atm

V = volume

n = moles

R= gas constant = 0.0821 Latm/mol K

T = 298 K

moles = mass / molar mass

so we can write

n/V = density / molar mass

Putting values

Pressure=\frac{nRT}{V}=\frac{massXRT}{VXmolarmass}

Pressure=\frac{densityXRT}{molarmass}

molarmass=\frac{densityXRT}{Pressure}=\frac{1.5328X0.0821X298}{1}=37.50

Thus molar mass of gas is 37.50g/mol
