Answer:

c) (12×0.9889) + (13×0.01108)

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of C-12 = 98.89%

Percentage of C-13 = 1.108%

Atomic mass = ?

Solution:

98.89/100 = 0.9889

1.108/ 100 = 0.01108

Atomic mass = (12×0.9889) + (13×0.01108)

Atomic mass = (11.8668 + 0.144034)

Atomic mass = 12.01084

A student observed a chemical reaction in which the mass of the products was measured to be less than the mass of the reactants.

There chemical reactions that can realise or absorb gas to the atmosphere. This means it is harder or impossible to measure it with normal weighing devices and normal taring equipment. As a principal in chemical reactions we have conservation of mass.

How would the volume of helium in a balloon be affected if the balloon was placed in a room where air temperature is lower?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The volume will decrease.

Explanation:

According to Charles' Law, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

V = kT

Thus, if T decreases, V decreases.
