Three isotopes of silicon have mass numbers of 28,29, and 30 with an average atomic mass of 28.086 what does this say about the

relative abundances of the isotopes
Chemistry

Answer is: silicon isotope with mass number 28 has highest relative abundance, this isotope is the most common of these three isotopes.

Ar₁(Si) = 28; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁸Si.  

Ar₂(Si) =29; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁹Si.  

Ar₃(Si) =30; the average atomic mass of isotope ³⁰Si.  

Silicon (Si) is composed of three stable isotopes, ₂₈Si (92.23%), ₂₉Si (4.67%) and ₃₀Si (3.10%).

ω₁(Si) = 92.23%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁸Si.  

ω₂(Si) = 4.67%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁹Si.

ω₃(Si) = 3.10%; mass percentage of isotope ³⁰Si.

Ar(Si) = 28.086 amu; average atomic mass of silicon.  

Ar(Si) = Ar₁(Si) · ω₁(B) + Ar₂(Si) · ω₂(Si)  + Ar₃(Si) · ω₃(Si).  

28,086 = 28 · 0.9223 + 29 · 0.0467 + 30 · 0.031.

From the absorption spectra of a gas, we can see the  amount of thermal energy the gas contains (option D).

<h3>What is the absorption spectra?</h3>

The absorption spectra shows us the energy that is taken in by a gas. We know that when a gas is heated, it absorbs energy which shows up in its absorption spectra.

Thus, from the absorption spectra of a gas, we can see the  amount of thermal energy the gas contains.

Nickel is extracted from nickel oxide by reduction with carbon.
meriva

Answer:

Nickel is extracted from nickel oxide by reduction with carbon. Nickel is a metal which react with atmospheric oxygen which is very reactive in order to protect the inner surface of metal. Carbon extract oxygen which is attached to the nickel in the form of nickel oxide because carbon is more reactive so it made a chemical bonds with oxygen and nickel oxide is converted into a pure nickel.
