Answer:

104.969 amu.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Isotope A:

Mass of A = 107.977 amu

Abundance (A%) = 0.1620%

Isotope B:

Mass of B = 106.976 amu

Abundance (B%) = 1.568%

Isotope C:

Mass of C = 105.974 amu

Abundance (C%) = 47.14%

Isotope D:

Mass of D = 103.973 amu

Abundance (D%) = 51.13%

Average atomic mass =?

The average atomic mass of the element can be obtained as follow:

Average atomic mass = [(Mass of A × A%) /100] + [(Mass of B × B%) /100] + [(Mass of C × C%) /100] + [(Mass of D × D%) /100]

Average atomic mass = [(107.977 × 0.1620)/100] + [(106.976 × 1.568)/100] + [(105.974 × 47.14)/100] + [(103.973 × 51.13)/100]

= 0.175 + 1.677 + 49.956 + 53.161

= 104.969 amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of the element is 104.969 amu.

The mass number of an atom is 15, and its atomic number is 7. The atom probably has... 8 neutrons in the nucleus. about as much
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.

What is the molarity of 5.63 moles of lithium in 3.25 liters of solution
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1.73 Molar

Explanation:

The formula is Molarity=moles of solute/liters of solution, which can be written in whatever way you prefer, and examples include: M=N/V or M=mol/L.

M=N/V

M= \frac{5.63}{3.25}

Divide 5.63 by 3.25. When you calculate this, you get 1.73, therefore your answer is 1.73 molar.
