There are two naturally occurring isotopes of boron determine the abundance of each isotope

Chemistry

MAVERICK [17]3 years ago

Answer : The correct answer is:

The abundance of isotopes can be found out using following formula :

atomic mass of element = ( abundance of isotope 1 * mass of isotope 1 ) + ( abundance of isotope 2 * mass of isotope 2 ) +.....

Boron ( mass = 10.811 u ) has two isotopes : ¹⁰B ( mass = 10.0129 u ) and ¹¹ B ( mass = 11.0093 u )

Sum of abundance of all isotopes = 100%

Lets assume abundance of isotope ¹¹B = x % = 0.01 x , so abundance of isotope ¹⁰B = 100 % - x% = 100/100 - x/100 = 1 - 0.01 x

Plugging values in formula :

10.811 = ( 0.01 x * 11.0093) + [( 1 - 0.01 x) * 10.0129 ]

10.811 = (0.110093 x ) + ( 10.0129 - 0.100129 x )

10.811 - 10.0129 = 0.110093 x - 0.100129 x

0.7981 = 0.009964 x

Dividing both side by 0.00964

0.7981 / 0.009964 = 0.00964 /0.00964 x

x = 82.7 %

Abundance of of isotope ¹¹ B = 82.7 %

Abundance of isotope ¹⁰ B = 100% - x % = 100 %- 82.7 % = 17.3 %

PH & POH
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

<h2>4.0 </h2>

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

pH = - log [ { H}^{+}]

From the question we have

ph =  -  log(9.25 \times  {10}^{ - 5} )  \\  = 4.03385

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.0</h3>

Hope this helps you

Assume the weight of an average adult is 70. kg, and that 420. kJ of heat are evolved per mole of oxygen consumed as a result of
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The temperature difference of the body after 3 hours = 5.16 K

Explanation:

we know that the number of moles of O₂ inhaled are 0.02 mole/min⁻¹

                                   or, 1.2 mole.h⁻¹

The average heat evolved by the oxidation of foodstuffs is then:

⇒          Q avg =\frac{1.2 X 420 X 10^{3} }{70} = 7.2 kj.h⁻¹.Kg⁻¹

the heat produced after 3 h would be:

                 =    7.2 kj. h⁻¹.Kg⁻¹ x 3 h

                 = 21.6 kj. kg⁻¹

                 = 21.6 x 10³ j kg⁻¹

We know Qp = Cp x ΔT

Assume the heat capacity of the body is 4.18 J g⁻¹K⁻¹

⇒ ΔT = \frac{Qp}{Cp}

⇒ ΔT = \frac{(21.6 X 10^{3} j.kg^{-1} ) }{(4.18 j k^{-1}g^{-1})   X (1000g.kg^{-1} )}

⇒ ΔT = 5.16 K

Explain why the electron configuration of 2-3-1 represents an atom in an excited state?
baherus [9]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If we look at the electron configuration closely, we will discover that the element must have had a ground state electron configuration of 2,4.

This is because, the innermost shell usually holds two electrons while the outer shells hold eight electrons each. The four electrons must be accommodated in the second shell in the ground state configuration of the compound.

However, when the atom is excited, one electron from this shell may move to the third shell to give the excited state configuration 2-3-1 as shown in the question.
