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

15.0 g of Fe and 25.0 g of sand are added to 250.0 g of water. a. Determine the percent mass of Fe, sand, and water in the mixtu
lana [24]

Answer:

A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand  = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 86.205%

B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand

Explanation:

A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:

Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g

percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%

B. Flow chart of separation procedure

(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.

Landfills are one source of CO2. As garbage decomposes, it releases CO2 into the air. Can you think of at least
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Recycling and reuse of materials

Explanation:

One of the greatest problems facing the human population is the problem of solid waste disposal. The menace of solid waste disposal has led to the idea of landfills. Land fills are depressions on the earth surface prepared for the purpose of solid waste disposal.

The most important approach towards solid waste disposal is the idea of recycling of materials. A material can be collected after use and processed into the same material or serve as a precursor in another manufacturing process. This means that no waste is generated as the materials which are supposed to be disposed of as solid waste are processed into other useful materials. This will reduce the volume of solid wastes generated that may need to be disposed in a landfill.
