<h2>Natural Abundance for 10B is 19.60%</h2>

Explanation:

  • The natural isotopic abundance of 10B is 19.60%.
  • The natural isotopic abundance of 11B is 80.40%.
  • The isotopic masses of boron are 10.0129 u and 11.009 u respectively.

For calculation of abundance of both the isotopes -

Supposing it was 50/50, the average mass would be 10.5, so to increase the mass we need a more percentage of 11.

Determining it as an equation -

10x + 11y= 10.8

x+y=1 (ratio)

10x + 10y = 10

By taking the denominator away from the numerator

we get;

y = 0.8

x + y = 1

∴ x = 0.2

To get percentages  we need to multiply it by 100

So, the calculated abundance is 80% for 11 B and 20% 10  B.

Consider the following reaction: CO(g)+2H2(g)⇌CH3OH(g) This reaction is carried out at a different temperature with initial conc
Anni [7]

Answer:

Ka = 4.76108

Explanation:

  • CO(g) + 2H2(g) ↔ CH3OH(g)

∴ Keq = [CH3OH(g)] / [H2(g)]²[CO(g)]

                      [ ]initial         change         [ ]eq

CO(g)              0.27 M       0.27 - x        0.27 - x

H2(g)              0.49 M       0.49 - x        0.49 - x

CH3OH(g)          0                0 + x               x = 0.11 M

replacing in Ka:

⇒ Ka = ( x ) / (0.49 - x)²(0.27 - x)

⇒ Ka = (0.11) / (0.49 - 0.11)² (0.27 - 0.11)

⇒ Ka = (0.11) / (0.38)²(0.16)

⇒ Ka = 4.76108

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bond(s) in 1 mole of CH₄ molecules is:_____ **Any help would be greatly appreciated!**
frozen [14]

Answer:

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH is 1644 kJ

Explanation:

Since there are 4 C-H bonds in CH₄, the bond dissociation energy of 1 mol of CH₄ is 4 × bond dissociation energy of one C-H bond.

From the table one mole is C-H bond requires 411 kJ, that is 411 kJ/mol. Therefore, 4 C-H bonds would require 4 × 411 kJ = 1644 kJ

So, the bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH₄ is 1644 kJ

How many grams of sodium chloride are required to make a 1.0 L solution with a concentration of 3.5 M?
satela [25.4K]
3.5 M has 3.5 moles per litre
so we have one litre, so we need 3.5 moles
moles = mass/molarmass
3.5 * 23 = 80.5

leonid [27]

Answer:

Balanced chemical  equation:

NO₂ + NO₃ → N₂O₅

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

NO₂ + NO₃ → N₂O₅

Balanced chemical  equation:

NO₂ + NO₃ → N₂O₅

Nitrogen trioxide gas combine with nitrogen dioxide gas and form nitrogen pentoxide.

This is the simple synthesis reaction in which two substance combine to form a new substance.

Synthesis reaction:

It is the reaction in which two or more simple substance react to give one or more complex product.

General chemical equation:

A + B  → AB

A and B are reactants that combine to form AB product.
