Boron has primarily two isotopes, one with an atomic mass of 11.0 amu and another with an atomic mass of 10.0 amu. If the abunda

nce of the boron atom with a mass of 11.0 amu is 18.9 percent and the abundance of the other isotope is 81.1 percent, what would be the atomic mass of the boron atom

Answer:

The atomic mass of the boron atom would be <em>10.135</em>

Explanation:

This is generally known as relative atomic mass.

Relative atomic mass or atomic weight is a physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass of 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. Since both quantities in the ratio are masses, the resulting value is dimensionless; hence the value is said to be relative and does not have a unit.

<em>Note that the relative atomic mass of atoms is not always a whole number because of it being isotopic in nature.</em>

  • <em>Divide each abundance by 100 then multiply by atomic mass</em>
  • <em>Do that for each isotope, then add the two result. Thus</em>

Relative atomic mass of Boron = (18.5/100 x 11) + (81/100 x 10)

                                                 = 2.035 + 8.1

                                                 = 10.135

What is altered by a catalyst?
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:Effect of Catalysts on the Activation Energy. Catalysts provide a new reaction pathway in which a lower Activation energy is offered. A catalyst increases the rate of a reaction by lowering the activation energy so that more reactant molecules collide with enough energy to surmount the smaller energy barrier.

Answer the following for the reaction: 3AgNO3(aq)+Na3PO4(aq)→Ag3PO4(s)+3NaNO3(aq)
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:1) Volume of AgNO_3 required is 55.98 mL.

2) 0.62577 grams of Ag_3PO_4 is produced.

Explanation:

3AgNO_3(aq)+Na_3PO_4(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)+3NaNO_3(aq)

1) Molarity of AgNO_3,M_1=0.225 M

Volume of AgNO_3.V_1=?

Molarity of Na_3PO_4,M_2=0.135 M

Volume of Na_3PO_4,V_2=31.1 mL=0.0311 L

Molarity=\frac{\text{number of moles}}{\text{volume of solution in liters}}

\text{number of moles }Na_3PO_4=M_2\times V_2=0.135 mol/L\times 0.0311 L=0.0041985 moles

According to reaction, 1 mole of Na_3PO_4 reacts with 3 mole of AgNO_3, then, 0.0041985 moles of Na_3PO_4 will react with:

\frac{3}{1}\times 0.0041985 moles of AgNO_3 that is 0.0125955 moles.

M_1=0.225 M=\frac{\text{number of moles of }AgNO_3}{V_1}

V_1=\frac{0.0125955 moles}{0.225 M}=0.05598 L=55.98 mL

Volume of AgNO_3 required is 55.98 mL.

2)

Molarity=0.195 M=\frac{\text{number of moles}}{\text{volume of solution in liters}}

Number of moles of AgNO_3=0.195\times 0.023 L=0.004485 moles

According to reaction, 3 moles of AgNO_3 gives 1 mole of Ag_3PO_4, then 0.004485 moles of AgNO_3 will give:\frac{1}{3}\times 0.004485 moles of Ag_3PO_4 that is 0.001495 moles.

Mass of Ag_3PO_4 =

Moles of Ag_3PO_4 × Molar Mass of Ag_3PO_4

= 0.001495 moles × 418.58 g/mol = 0.62577 g

0.62577 grams of Ag_3PO_4 is produced.

A 50.0 mL sample of a 1.00 M solution of CuSO4 is mixed with 50.0 mL of 2.00 M KOH in a calorimeter. The temperature of both sol
Reika [66]

Answer : The enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the solution

q=[q_1+q_2]

q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

q_1 = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q_2 = heat absorbed by the solution

c_1 = specific heat of calorimeter = 12.1J/^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_2 = mass of water or solution = Density\times Volume=1/mL\times 100.0mL=100.0g

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(26.3-20.2)^oC=6.1^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=[(12.1J/^oC\times 6.1^oC)+(100.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 6.1^oC)]

q=2623.61J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change for the process.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 2626.61 J

n = number of moles of copper sulfate used = Concentration\times Volume=1M\times 0.050L=0.050mole

\Delta H=\frac{2623.61J}{0.050mole}=52472.2J/mole=52.5kJ/mole

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.
