You have to figure out a way to write the two unknown abundances in terms of one variable.

The total abundance is 1 (or 100%). So if you say the abundance for the first one is X then the abundance for the second one has to be 1-X (where X is the decimal of the percentage so say 0.8 for 80%).

203(X) + 205(1-X) = 204.4

Then you just solve for X to get the percentage for TI-203.
And then solve for 1-X to get the percentage for TI-205.

After that the higher percentage would be the most abundant.

203x + 205 - 205x = 204.4
-2x + 205 = 204.4
-2x = -0.6

x = 0.3
1-x = 0.7

Then the TI-205 would have the highest percentage and would be the most abundant.

Yasmin's teacher tells her that the solubility of salt is 360 g/L at room temperature (25 °C). How can Yasmin make an unsaturate
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

By adding less amount or quantity of the salt (solute), than the medium (solvent) can dissolve at a particular temperature that is to make an unsaturated solution at room temperature, Yasmin should add less than 360 g of salt to one liter of the solvent

Explanation:

An unsaturated solution is one that consists of less than the maximum mass or quantity of the solute that it is capable of dissolving.

An experiment requires 40.0g of ethylene glycol, a liquid whose density is 1.114 g/mL. Rather than weigh the sample on a balance
uranmaximum [27]
Density= mass/volume
volume=mass/density
volume= 40.0g/1.114g per mL
volume= 35.90664273 mL

Four grams of hydrogen react completely with 32 grams of oxygen. Based on the law of conservation of mass how many grams of wate
neonofarm [45]

Se producirán 36 gramos de agua

Explicación: Ya que en una reacción química no puede descubrir ningún cambio en masa total de las sustancias que en ella intervienen, pues en una reacción química ni se gana ni se pierde masa.

You could add solid KCl to the solution to precipitate out AgCl(s). What mass of KCl is needed to precipitate the silver ions fr
padilas [110]

Answer:

0.143 g of KCl.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction:

AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq) --> AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)

Molar concentration = mass/volume

= 0.16 * 0.012

= 0.00192 mol AgNO3.

By stoichiometry, 1 mole of AgNO3 reacts with 1 mole of KCl to form a precipitate.

Number of moles of KCl = 0.00192 mol.

Molar mass of KCl = 39 + 35.5

= 74.5 g/mol

Mass = molar mass * number of moles

= 74.5 * 0.00192

= 0.143 g of KCl.
