The average atomic mass if the element above is calculated by the sum of the product of the isotope abundance and its atomic mass unit. It is expressed as:

Average atomic mass = Σ xi(Mi)
<span>Average atomic mass = (.7547 x 248.7) + (.2453 x 249.4) = 248.87
</span>
Hope this helps.

Answer:

248.9 uma

Explanation:

We calculate the average atomic mass using the following formula

m= \frac{(m_1.\%_1)+(m_2.\%_2)}{100} \\

This formula depends on how many isotopes the atom has.

If the atom had three isotopes another term would be added to the formula

m1= 248.7 uma\\\%_1= 75.47\%\\m_2= 249.4 uma\\\%_2= 24.53\%

m= \frac{(248.7)(75.47)+(249.4)(24.53)}{100}\\ m=248.9 uma

6. If 4 mole of the rocket fuel ammonium perchlorate, NH4C/04 (s) is
Bond [772]

Answer:

144g of H₂O

Explanation:

3NH₄ClO₄(s) + 3Al → Al₂O₃(s) + AlCl₃(s) + 3NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)

From the equation:

3 moles of NH₄ClO₄ produced 6 moles of H₂O

4 moles of NH₄ClO₄ produced ? moles of H₂O

(4 ₓ 6)/3 = \frac{24}{3} = 8 moles of H₂O

1 mole of H₂O = (1 × 2) + 16 = 18g (The Relative Molecular mass of H₂O)

8 moles of H₂O = ?

Therefore 8 × 18 = 144g

=144g of H₂O
