Answer:

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14.0067 amu.

Explanation:

Isotopes can be defined as two or more forms of a chemical element that are made up of equal numbers of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons.

Generally, the isotopes of a chemical element have the same chemical properties because of their atomic number but different physical properties due to their atomic weight (mass number).

The two isotopes of nitrogen are nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15.

Given the following data;

Relative abundance of N-14 = 99.63%

Atomic mass of N-14 = 14.003

Relative abundance of N-15 = 0.37%

Atomic mass of N-15 = 15.000

The atomic mass is;

14.003 × (99.63/100) + 15.000 × (0.37/100)

Atomic mass = 14.003 × (0.9963) + 15.000 × (0.0037)

Atomic mass = 13.9512 + 0.0555

Atomic mass = 14.0067 amu.

<em>Therefore, the atomic mass of nitrogen is 14.0067 amu. </em>

Describe at least two methods to separate a mixture of small copper and iron beads
bekas [8.4K]
<span>A fast way to separate the mixture would be to use a magnet. Iron is magnetic while copper is not. The second method would be to visually separate them since iron and copper distinctly different colors.</span>

Determine the percent yield of a reaction that produces 28.65 g of Fe when 50.00 g of Fe2O3 react with excess Al according to th
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The percent yield of the reaction is 82%

Explanation:

First step: make the chemist equation.

2 Al (s) + Fe2O3 (s) → 2 Fe (s) + Al2O3 (s)

As the statement says that aluminun is in excess, the limiting reactant is the Fe2O3

Second step: Find out the moles in the reactant.

Molar weight Fe2O3: 159.7 g/m

Mass / Molar weight = moles

50 g /159.7 g/m = 0.313 moles

Third step: Analyse the reaction. 1 mol of Fe2O3 makes 2 moles of Fe.

1 mol Fe2O3 ____ 2Fe

0.313 mol Fe2O3 ____ 0.626 moles

Molar weight Fe = 55.85 g/m

Moles . molar weight = mass

55.85g/m . 0.626m = 34.9 grams

This will be the 100% yield of the reaction but we only made 28.65 g

34.9 g ____ 100%

28.65 g ____ 82.09 %
