There are three naturally occurring isotopes of the hypothetical element hilarium 45Hi, 46Hi, and 48Hi. The percentages of these

isotopes are the following: Hilarium Natural Isotopes Abundance 45Hi 18.3% 46Hi 34.5% 48Hi 47.2% You can assume that the atomic masses are exactly equal to the mass number. Calculate the weight of "naturally" occurring hilarium and report it as you would for any other naturally occurring element. Answer in units of g/mol. Your answer must be within ± 0.005%

Answer:

46.761g/mol

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Element = Hilarium , Hi

Isotopes: Hi- 45, Hi-46 and Hi- 48

Natural abundance of Hi-45 = 18.3%

                                     Hi-46 = 34.5%

                                     Hi-48 = 47.2%

Unknown:

Atomic weight of naturally occurring Hilarium = ?

Solution:

Isotopes have been studied extensively by mass spectrometry. The method is used to determine the proportion/percentage/fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature. The proportion is called geonormal abundance. From this we can calculate the atomic weight of an element.

 We can use the expression below to find this value:

       Atomic weight = m₄₅α₄₅ + m₄₆α₄₆ + m₄₈α₄₈

    m is the atomic mass of each isotope and α is the abundance

Atomic weight = (45 x \frac{18.3}{100} ) + (46 x  \frac{34.5}{100} ) + (48 x  \frac{47.2}{100})

Atomic weight of Hi = 8.235 + 15.870 +  22.656 = 46.761g/mol

Dolomite is a mixed carbonate of calcium and magnesium. Calcium and magnesium carbonates both decompose upon heating to produce
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

72.03 %

Explanation:

Total mass of dolomite = 9.66 g

Let the mass of Magnesium carbonate = x g

The mass of calcium carbonate = 9.66 - x g

Calculation of the moles of Magnesium carbonate as:-

Molar mass of Magnesium carbonate = 122.44 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{x\ g}{84.3139\ g/mol}=\frac{x}{84.3139}\ mol

Calculation of the moles of calcium carbonate as:-

Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100.0869 g/mol

Thus,

Moles= \frac{9.66 - x\ g}{100.0869\ g/mol}=\frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\ mol

According to the reaction shown below:-

MgCO_3\rightarrow MgO+CO_2

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

In both the cases, the oxides formed from the carbonates in the 1:1 ratio.

So, Moles of MgO = \frac{x}{84.3139}\ mol

Molar mass of MgO = 40.3044 g/mol

Thus, Mass = Moles*Molar mass = \frac{x}{84.3139}\times 40.3044 \ g

Moles of CaO = \frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\ mol

Molar mass of CaO = 56.0774 g/mol

Thus, Mass = Moles*Molar mass = \frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\times 56.0774 \ g

Given that total mass of the oxide = 4.84 g

Thus,

\frac{x}{84.3139}\times 40.3044 +\frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\times 56.0774=4.84

\frac{40.3044x}{84.3139}+56.0774\times \frac{-x+9.66}{100.0869}=4.84

-694.1618435x+45673.48749\dots =40843.38968\dots

x=\frac{4830.09780\dots }{694.1618435}

x=6.9582

Thus, the mass of Magnesium carbonate = 6.9582 g

\%\ mass=\frac{Mass_{MgCO_3}}{Total\ mass}\times 100

\%\ mass=\frac{6.9582}{9.66}\times 100=72.03\ \%

The conversation of cyclopropane to propene in the gas phase is a first order reaction with a rate constant of 6.7x10-⁴s-¹. a) i
Rus_ich [418]

Answer: a)  The concentration after 8.8min is 0.17 M

b) Time taken for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M is 687 seconds.

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) concentration after 8.8 min:

8.8\times 60s=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\log\frac{0.25}{a-x}

\log\frac{0.25}{a-x}=0.15

\frac{0.25}{a-x}=1.41

(a-x)=0.17M

b) for concentration to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M

t=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\log\frac{0.25}{0.15}\\\\t=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\times 0.20

t=687s

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Option E, Half life = 2.96\times 10^3\ s

Explanation:

For a first order reaction, rate constant and half-life is related as:

            t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

Where,

t_{1/2} = Half life

k = Rate constant

Rate constant given = 2.34\times 10^{-4}\ s^{-1}

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{2.34 \times 10^{-4}}=2.96\times 10^3\ s

So, the correct option is option E.
