Explain the difference between percent abundance and relative abundance.

1 answer:

8 0

Relative abundance - comparison between the isotopes Percent abundance -
comparing the totals.
relative abundance:the number of organisms of a particular kind as a percentage of the total number of organisms of a given area or community; the number of birds of a particular species as a percentage of the total bird population of a given area percent:figured or expressed on the basis of a rate or proportion per hundred (used in combination with a number in expressing rates of interest, proportions, etc.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 44 and its mass number is 151?

Phoenix [80]

To find the number of neutrons, you subtract the atomic number from the mass number of element X. So in this case, it'll be 151-44= the number of neutrons.

Imagine that a new planet is discovered with two moons of equal mass: Moon A and Moon B. The mass of the new planet is greater t

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: The gravitational pull on Moon B is greater than on Moon A because Moon B is closer to the new planet than Moon A.

Explanation:

The gravitational force exerted by the two objects on each other is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

$F=G\frac{mM}{r^2}$

F = gravitational force or pull

G = gravitational constant on that planet

M = mass of the object-1

m = mass of object-2(Mass of Moon-A or Moon-B)

r = distance between two objects

$Force\propto \frac{1}{r^2}$

With decease in distance 'r' the force between the object increases or vice versa.So, from this we can say that the gravitational pull on Moon-B is more than the gravitational pull on Moon-A because the Moon B is closer than the Moon-A from the new planet.
