Answer:

7

Explanation:

Atomic number of X = 3

Atomic mass of X = 6.94 amu

1st isotope atomic mass = 6 amu

2nd isotope atomic mass = 7 amu

Which is more abundant isotope = ?

Explanation:

we know there are two naturally occurring isotopes of given element X, X-6  and X-7.

First of all we will set the fraction for both isotopes

x for the isotopes having mass 6

1-x for isotopes having mass 7

The average atomic mass of X = 6.94 amu

we will use the following equation,

6x + 7 (1-x) = 6.94

6x + 7 - 7x = 6.94

6x- 7x = 6.94 - 7

-1x = -0.06

x= -0.06/-1

x= 0.06

0.06 × 100 = 6%

6% is abundance of X-6 because we solve the fraction x.

now we will calculate the abundance of X-7.

(1-x)

1-0.06 =0.94

0.94 × 100= 94%

94% for X-7.

How many oxygen is produced in Laboratory?​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements on this planet. Our atmosphere is 21% free elemental oxygen. Oxygen is also extensively combined in compounds in the earths crust, such as water (89%) and in mineral oxides. Even the human body is 65% oxygen by mass.

Free elemental oxygen occurs naturally as a gas in the form of diatomic molecules,  O2  (g). Oxygen exhibits many unique physical and chemical properties. For example, oxygen is a colorless and odorless gas, with a density greater than that of air, and a very low solubility in water. In fact, the latter two properties greatly facilitate the collection of oxygen in this lab. Among the unique chemical properties of oxygen are its ability to support respiration in plants and animals, and its ability to support combustion.

In this lab, oxygen will be generated as a product of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. A catalyst is used to speed up the rate of the decomposition reaction, which would otherwise be too slow to use as a source of oxygen. The catalyst does not get consumed by the reaction, and can be collected for re-use once the reaction is complete. The particular catalyst used in this lab is manganese(IV) oxide.

Describe how experimental evidence led each of the following scientists: Dalton, Rutherford, Thompson, Chadwick and Bohr, to dev
nasty-shy [4]
Dalton Found out there was a small, hard indestructible sphere that is the smalles part of an element.He created his own Atomic Theory:
-All Matter is made up of small particles called atoms.
-Atoms cannot be created, destroyed, or divided into smaller particles.
-All atoms of the same element are identical in mass and size. The atoms of one element are different in mass and size from the atoms of other elements.
<span>-Compounds are created when atoms of different elements link together in definite proportions.
</span><span>Rutherford had found the positively charged nucleus in the middle of every atom using his Gold Foil Experiment. While doing this experiment, he expected these particles to just pass right through the foil but they bounced right back. He also proposed there were negatively charged electrons revolving around the nucleus.
</span><span>Thompson found negative electrons and inferred atoms also contain negative particles. He inferred there was a lump of positively charged material, with negative electrons throughout. He used the Raisins Bun Model to explain. 
</span>Chadwick <span>proved that it consisted of a neutral particle with about the same mass as a proton "Neutron"  is the name given to the particle</span>
Bohr 
believed Rutherford's prediction was correct, but it wasn't complete. Bohr proposed electrons could only move between energy levels, rather then being able to move everywhere.

Explain why the nucleus of an atom is positively charged but the overall charge of an atom is neutral
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The nucleus is positively charged because it contains all of the protons however the charge of an atom is neutral because there is an equal amount of protons (positive) and electrons (negative) meaning the opposite charges cancel each other out therefore making the atoms overall charge neutral.
