The isotope that is more abundant, given the data is isotope Li7
<h3>Assumption</h3>
- Let Li6 be isotope A
- Let Li7 be isotope B
<h3>How to determine whiche isotope is more abundant</h3>
- Molar mass of isotope A (Li6) = 6.02 u
- Molar mass of isotope B (Li7) = 7.02 u
- Atomic mass of lithium = 6.94 u
- Abundance of A = A%
- Abundance of B = (100 - A)%
Atomic mass = [(mass of A × A%) / 100] + [(mass of B × B%) / 100]
6.94 = [(6.02 × A%) / 100] + [(7.02 × (100 - A)) / 100]
6.94 = [6.02A% / 100] + [702 - 7.02A% / 100]
6.94 = [6.02A% + 702 - 7.02A%] / 100
Cross multiply
6.02A% + 702 - 7.02A% = 6.94 × 100
6.02A% + 702 - 7.02A% = 694
Collect like terms
6.02A% - 7.02A% = 694 - 702
-A% = -8
A% = 8%
Thus,
Abundance of B = (100 - A)%
Abundance of B = (100 - 8)%
Abundance of B = 92%
SUMMARY
- Abundance of A (Li6) = 8%
- Abundance of B (Li7) = 92%
From the above, isotope Li7 is more abundant.

#SPJ1
When two oxygen atoms get close to each other, the attractions from the nucleus of both atoms attract the outer electrons.
(BRAINLIEST PLEASE!!!)
One reason could be that the water in this experiment, didn’t boil, but instead became a “chemical reaction” from atmospheric pressure which is normal.
While heating two different samples, of
sea level water it decides on a temperature of 102°C and the other boils at 99.2°C. Basically calculating of the percent error.
