Alona [7]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

0.03682 mL of mercury

Explanation:

We know the density of the mercury which is 13.58 g/mL

density = mass / volume

volume = mass / density

Now we can calculate the volume of 0.5 g of mercury:

volume = 0.5 / 13.58 = 0.03682 mL of mercury

2.3 Zinc has five naturally occurring isotopes: 48.63% of 64 Zn with an atomic weight of 63.929 amu; 27.90% of 66Zn with an atom

lakkis [162]

Answer: The average atomic mass of element Zinc is 65.40 amu.

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$ .....(1)

For $_{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 63.929 amu

Percentage abundance of $_{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 48.63 %

Fractional abundance of $_{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 0.4863

For $_{30}^{66}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{30}^{66}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 65.926 amu

Percentage abundance of $_{30}^{66}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 27.90 %

Fractional abundance of $_{30}^{66}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 0.2790

For $_{30}^{67}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{30}^{67}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 66.927 amu

Percentage abundance of $_{30}^{67}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 4.10 %

Fractional abundance of $_{30}^{67}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 0.0410

For $_{30}^{68}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{30}^{68}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 67.925 amu

Percentage abundance of $_{30}^{68}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 18.75 %

Fractional abundance of $_{30}^{68}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 0.1875

For $_{30}^{70}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{30}^{70}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 69.925 amu

Percentage abundance of $_{30}^{70}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 0.62 %

Fractional abundance of $_{30}^{70}\textrm{Zn}$ isotope = 0.0062

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Average atomic mass of Zinc}=[(63.929\times 0.4863)+(65.926\times 0.2790)+(66.927\times 0.0410)+(67.925\times 0.1875)+(69.925\times 0.0062)]$

$\text{Average atomic mass of Zinc}=65.40amu$

Hence, the average atomic mass of element Zinc is 65.40 amu.

What is the concentration of an hbr solution if 12.0 ml of the solution is neutralized by 15.0 ml of a 0.25 m koh solution?

Snowcat [4.5K]

The balanced equation for the reaction between KOH and HBr is as follows;
KOH + HBr --> KBr + H₂O
stoichiometry of KOH to HBr is 1:1
number of KOH moles reacted - 0.25 mol/L x 0.015 L = 0.00375 mol
according to molar ration
number of KOH moles reacted = number of HBr moles reacted
number of HBr moles reacted - 0.00375 mol
if 12 mL of HBr contains - 0.00375 mol
then 1000 mL of HBr contains - 0.00375 mol / 12 mL x 1000 mL = 0.313 mol
therefore molarity of HBr is 0.313 M

write the net ionic equation (including phases) that corresponds to Cu(ClO4)2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq)-------->CaCO3(s) + 2NaClO4(aq)

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Complete ionic:
Cu(aq) + 2Cl(aq) + 8O(aq) + 2Na(aq) + C(aq) + 3O(aq) = CaCO3(s) + 2Na(aq) + Cl(aq) + 4O(aq)

Net ionic:

Cu(aq) + Cl(aq) + 4O(aq) + 2Na(aq) + C(aq) + 3O(aq) = CaCO3(s)

So write everything out as IF it will dissociate in water. So everything that is aq splits but solid just floats to the bottom of the mixture. Cancel what you can (in this case the two from the ClO4 on the left of the equation cancels with the ClO4 from the right) and the 2Na cancels. Then, write out the whole solution and you are done!

The answer is: Light strikes a beautiful white perch under water. This light is reflected back to your eyes allowing you to see the fish. As the light left the water it changes speed causing the light to bend away from the normal.
Hope this helps!
