Answer:

Atomic mass of element = 38.25 amu

Explanation:

Let X-39 abundance = 75% and X-36 abundance = 25%

Atomic Mass of element = ∑ wt average contributions of each isotope ...

Wt Avg Contribution = fractional abundance x isotopic mass.    

Isotope      Isotopic Mass (amu)     Fractional Abundance     Wt Avg Contbn

 X-39                   39.00                           0.75                              29.25 amu

 X-36                   36.00                           0.25                                9.00 amu

∑ Wt Avg Contributions = 29.25 amu + 9.00 amu = 38.25 amu

=> Atomic mass of element = 38.25 amu

A solution of HNO3HNO3 is standardized by reaction with pure sodium carbonate. 2H++Na2CO3⟶2Na++H2O+CO2 2H++Na2CO3⟶2Na++H2O+CO2 A
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(0,653±0,002) M of HNO₃

Explanation:

The reaction of standarization of HNO₃ with Na₂CO₃ is:

2 HNO₃ + Na₂CO₃ ⇒ 2 Na⁺ + H₂O + CO₂ + 2NO₃⁻

To obtain molarity of HNO₃ we need to know both moles and volume of this acid. The volume is (27,71±0,05) mL and to calculate the moles it is necessary to obtain the Na₂CO₃ moles and then convert these to HNO₃ moles, thus:

0,9585 g of Na₂CO₃ × ( 1 mole / 105,988 g) =

9,043×10⁻³ mol Na₂CO₃ × ( 2 moles of HNO₃ / 1 mole of Na₂CO₃) = 1,809×10⁻² moles of HNO₃

Molarity is moles divide liters, thus, molarity of HNO₃ is:

1,809×10⁻² moles / 0,02771 L = 0,6527 M of HNO₃

The absolute uncertainty of multiplication is the sum of relative uncertainty, thus:

ΔM = 0,6527M× (0,0007/0,9585 + 0,001/105,988 + 0,05/27,71) =

0,6527 M× 2,54×10⁻³ = 1,7×10⁻³ M

Thus, molarity of HNO₃ solution and its absolute uncertainty is:

(0,653±0,002) M of HNO₃

I hope it helps!
