Answer: The average atomic mass of this element is 131.5 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope 1 = 131.90 amu

% abundance of isotope 1 = 90% = \frac{90}{100}=0.9

Mass of isotope 2 = 127.90 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 10% = \frac{10}{100}=0.1

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(131.90\times 0.9)+(127.90\times 0.1)]=131.5amu

The average atomic mass of this element is 131.5 amu

Which of the following are acids by the Bronsted-Lowry Definition:
olga55 [171]

ANSWER IS (A)

EXPLANATION:

Bronsted-Lowry concept states that a substance is an acid if it can act as a H+ donor.

HCl in aqueous solution means that HCl is present in water, HCl + H2O --> H3O+ + Cl-.  This reaction will take place, the H+ from HCl will be donated to H2O. So, HCl is a bronsted-lowry acid by definition.


However, Methanol (CH3OH) its written that it is liquid, i.e. pure methanol, CH3OH(l).  It is both acidic as well as basic. when it is mixed with water then it behaves as an acid.

The last one ammonia in gas phase is also neutral because its not in water. if mixed in water it behaves as a base.

What property of liquid oxygen makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home?
irga5000 [103]
The property of liquid oxygen that makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home would be its cryogenic temperature. Liquid oxygen is being produced from the compression of oxygen gas to -196 degrees Celsius. As you can see, it has a very cold temperature that is why it used in cryogenics. Although liquid oxygen is non-toxic to humans, it would cause burns that are severe when being touched. Also, it would make certain materials brittle and unstable. Another property that makes it dangerous for use at home would be that it is very flammable. Proper handling is a must for this substance.

Which element has higher ionization energy? chlorine or carbon
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

chlorine has higher ionization than carbon

Explanation:

Chlorine is only one row below carbon, but it is three columns to the right in this case the IP of chlorine would be predicted to be greater than the IP of carbon.
