Lisa [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 6.96 amu.

Explanation:

Abundance of Li-6 = 4%

Abundance of Li-7 = 96%

Atomic mass of Li-6 = 6 amu

Atomic mass of Li-7 = 7 amu

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (4×6)+(96×7) /100

Average atomic mass =  24 + 672 / 100

Average atomic mass = 696 / 100

Average atomic mass = 6.96 amu.

Which one of the following processes produces a decrease in the entropy of the system?a, precipitation of AgCl(s) from Ag+(aq) a
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:  precipitation of AgCl(s) from Ag^+(aq) and Cl^-(aq) ions in solution

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

a) precipitation of AgCl(s) from Ag^+(aq) and Cl^-(aq) ions in solution : As ions are getting solidified, entropy decreases.

b) dissolution of LiOH(s) in water: The compounds dissociates into ions, entropy increases.

c) melting solid gold into liquid gold: The randomness increases, entropy increases.

d) evaporation of Hg(l) to form Hg(g) : The randomness increases, entropy increases.

e)  mixing of two gases into one container : The randomness increases, entropy increases.

In reading a line drawing, how do you know where atoms of these elements are in the structure if they are missing from the drawi
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The atoms of an element are represented in a chemical line drawing with its chemical formula.

Explanation:

chemical structural drawing helps to represent the pattern for which an element is formed. Chemical elements are made up of atoms that represent their single state.

The line drawing is made up of lines (representing the chemical bond between atoms) and the atoms or various atoms that make up the element.

Exam 3 Material

Homework Page Without Visible Answers

This page has all of the required homework for the material covered in the third exam of the first semester of General Chemistry. The textbook associated with this homework is CHEMISTRY The Central Science by Brown, LeMay, et.al. The last edition I required students to buy was the 12th edition (CHEMISTRY The Central Science, 12th ed. by Brown, LeMay, Bursten, Murphy and Woodward), but any edition of this text will do for this course.

Note: You are expected to go to the end of chapter problems in your textbook, find similar questions, and work out those problems as well. This is just the required list of problems for quiz purposes. You should also study the Exercises within the chapters. The exercises are worked out examples of the questions at the back of the chapter. The study guide also has worked out examples.

These are bare-bones questions. The textbook questions will have additional information that may be useful and that connects the problems to real life applications, many of them in biology.
