Answer:

40.7% abundance of Ga-71

59.93% abundance of  Ga-69

Explanation:

Given data:

Average atomic mass of Ga = 69.72 amu

Atomic mass of Ga-69 = 68.9257 amu

Atomic mass of Ga-71 = 70.908 amu

Percent abundance of each isotope = ?

Solution;

we know there are two naturally occurring isotopes of Ga.

First of all we will set the fraction for both isotopes

X for the isotopes having mass 68.9257

1-x for isotopes having mass 70.908

we will use the following equation,

68.9257x +  70.908 (1-x) = 69.72

68.9257x +70.908 - 70.908x = 69.72

68.9257x -  70.908x = 69.72 - 70.908

-1.9823x =  - 1.188

x=  1.188/1.9823

x= 0.5993

0.5993 × 100 = 59.93 %

59.93 %  is abundance of Ga-69 because we solve the fraction x.

now we will calculate the abundance of Ga-71.

(1-x)

1 - 0.5993 = 0.4007

0.4007× 100= 40.7 %

40.7 % for Ga-71.

As of right now, which of the following forms of nuclear power is the most feasible for human use?
nikitadnepr [17]

As of now, the nuclear fission is the most feasible energy source for human use. All the nuclear power plants are based on the controlled nuclear fission reaction, where the unstable nucleus is bombarded with high speed neutrons, thus, splitting the nucleus into stable ones and releasing huge amount of energy. The nuclear fusion requires very high temperature, the temperature equal's to that of the sun. Hence, it is not feasible right now. As the technology advances, we will see advancement in other form of energies.
