What is an isotope ? how is the mass calculated ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number. All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom

Explanation:

For any given isotope, the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus is called the mass number. This is because each proton and each neutron weigh one atomic mass unit (amu). By adding together the number of protons and neutrons and multiplying by 1 amu, you can calculate the mass of the atom

1) d

2) b because the independent variable is the thing you change/control in an experiment

3) c because the dependent variable is the thing being measured in an experiment

4)hmm it might be d, as c and a are both correct as different sized feeders would make it an unfair test and different types of food would as well

5) c

6) a

7) b obviously because if he activated them at different times then the ones activated last would have an advantage

How many moles of neon occupy a volume of 14.3 l at stp? how many moles of neon occupy a volume of 14.3 l at stp? 1.57 moles 0.6
andriy [413]
The  number   of  neon  moles  that  occupy  a volume of 14.3 l  at STP is calculated as follows

At STP 1  mole = 22.4 liters

what about  14.3 liters

by cross  multiplication
= (1 mole x 14.3 l)/22.4 l =0.638  moles  of  neon

A first-order reaction is 45% complete at the end of 43 minutes. What is the length of the half-life of this reaction
shtirl [24]

The half-life of the reaction is 50 minutes

Data;

  • Time = 43 minutes
  • Type of reaction = first order
  • Amount of Completion = 45%

<h3>Reaction Constant</h3>

Let the initial concentration of the reaction be X_0

The reactant left = (1 - 0.45) X_0 = 0.55 X_0 = X

For a first order reaction

\ln(\frac{x}{x_o}) = -kt\\ k = \frac{1}{t}\ln (\frac{x_o}{x}) \\ k = \frac{1}{43}\ln (\frac{x_o}{0.55_o})\\ k = 0.013903 min^-^1

<h3>Half Life </h3>

The half-life of a reaction is said to be the time required for the initial amount of the reactant to reach half it's original size.

x = \frac{x_o}{2} \\t = t_\frac{1}{2} \\t_\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{k}\ln(\frac{x_o}{x_o/2})\\

Substitute the values

t_\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{k}\ln(2)=\frac{0.6931}{0.013903}\\t_\frac{1}{2}= 49.85 min = 50 min

The half-life of the reaction is 50 minutes
