If an element has two isotopes, what is the atomic mass if one of the isotopes has a mass of 15.000 amu and makes up 5.000% of t

he mass of the element while the other isotope has a mass of 16.000 amu and make up the remaining 95.000 %?

The atomic mass of element is the weighted average atomic mass of the element with respect to the abundance of the isotopes of that element 
atomic mass is the sum of the products of the mass of isotopes by their percentage abundance 
atomic mass = 15.000 amu x 5.000 % + 16.000 amu x 95.000 % 
                     = 0.7500 + 15.200
atomic mass of element is therefore 15.950

Conduct metric Titration of H_2(SO_4) and Ba(OH)_2 Write an equation (including states of matter) for the reaction between H_2(S
meriva

Answer:

a) H₂SO₄ + Ba(OH)₂ ⇄ BaSO₄(s) + 2 H₂O(l)

b) H₂SO₄, H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻. H₂O, H⁺, OH⁻.

c) H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻

d) As the titration takes place, reaction [1] proceeds to the right. The conductivity of the solution decreases because the amount of H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻ decreases. The formed solid is barium sulfate BaSO₄. Since BaSO₄ is very insoluble, the main responsible for conductivity are still H⁺, HSO₄⁻ and SO₄²⁻,

e) At the equivalence point equivalent amounts of H₂SO₄ and Ba(OH)₂ react. The conducting species are Ba²⁺, SO₄²⁻, H⁺ and OH⁻.

f) After the equivalence point there is an excess of Ba(OH)₂. The ions Ba²⁺ and OH⁻ are responsible for the increase in the conductivity, being the major conducting species.

Explanation:

a) Write an equation (including states of matter) for the reaction between H₂SO₄ and Ba(OH)₂.

The <em>balanced equation</em> is:

H₂SO₄ + Ba(OH)₂ ⇄ BaSO₄(s) + 2 H₂O(l)   [1]

b) At the very start of the titration, before any titrant has been added to the beaker, what is present in the solution?

In the beginning there is H₂SO₄ and the ions that come from its <em>dissociation reactions</em>: H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻. There is also H₂O and a very small amount of H⁺ and OH⁻ coming from its <em>ionization</em>.

H₂SO₄(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + HSO₄⁻(aq)

HSO₄⁻(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

H₂O(l)  ⇄ H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

c) What is the conducting species in this initial solution?

The main responsible for conductivity are the <em>ions</em> coming from H₂SO₄: H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻.

d) Describe what happens as titrant is added to the beaker. Why does the conductivity of the solution decrease? What is the identity of the solid formed? What is the conducting species present in the beaker?

As the titration takes place, reaction [1] proceeds to the right. The conductivity of the solution decreases because the amount of H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻ decreases. The formed solid is barium sulfate BaSO₄. Since BaSO₄ is very insoluble, the main responsible for conductivity are still H⁺, HSO₄⁻ and SO₄²⁻,

e) What happens when the conductivity value reaches its minimum value (which is designated as the equivalence point for this type of titration)? What is the conducting species in the beaker?

At the <em>equivalence point</em> equivalent amounts of H₂SO₄ and Ba(OH)₂ react. Only BaSO₄ and H₂O are present, and since they are <em>weak electrolytes</em>, there is a small amount of ions to conduct electricity. The conducting species are Ba²⁺ and SO₄²⁻ coming from BaSO₄ and H⁺ and OH⁻ coming from H₂O.

f) Describe what happens at additional titrant is added past the equivalence point. Why does the conductivity of the solution increase? What is the conducting species present in the beaker?

After the equivalence point there is an excess of Ba(OH)₂. The ions Ba²⁺ and OH⁻ are responsible for the increase in the conductivity, being the major conducting species.

Differentiate between <br>Halogens and insert gases​
jasenka [17]

Answer:

An inert gas is one that does not undergo chemical reactions

Noble gases refers to the right most group of the periodic table composed of helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. As you might have seen as an example in class, some noble gases can form chemical compounds, such as XeF4.

or to say:

Halogens and noble gases are two different groups of elements that can be seen on the periodic table. Halogens are found in group 17 and include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine. Noble gases make up group 18, and include helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon.

If it takes 20.4 mL of NaOH(aq) to reach the equivalence point of the titration, what is the molarity of H2SO4(aq)? For your ans
Alik [6]

Question is incomplete, complete question is;

A 34.8 mL solution of H_2SO_4 (aq) of an unknown concentration was titrated with 0.15 M of NaOH(aq).

H_2SO_4(aq)+2NaOH(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq)+2H_2O(l)

If it takes 20.4 mL of NaOH(aq) to reach the equivalence point of the titration, what is the molarity of H_2SO_4(aq)? For your answer, only type in the numerical value with two significant figures. Do NOT include the unit.

Answer:

0.044 M is the molarity of H_2SO_4(aq).

Explanation:

The reaction taking place here is in between acid and base which means that it is a neutralization reaction .

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is H_2SO_4

n_1,M_2\text{ and }V_2  are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=2\\M_1=?\\V_1=34.8 mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.15 M\\V_2=20.4 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2\times M_1\times 34.8 mL=1\times 0.15 M\times 20.4 mL\\\\M_1=\frac{1\times 0.15 M\times 20.4 mL\times 10}{2\times 34.8 mL}=0.044 M

0.044 M is the molarity of H_2SO_4(aq).
