Answer:

Relative atomic mass of magnesium is 24.3

Explanation:

The relative atomic mass (R. A. M) of an element which exhibits isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.

To calculate the relative atomic mass, multiply the percentage value of each with its corresponding mass and add the values together.

R. A. M = ( 78.99/100 * 23.99) + (10/100 * 24.99) + (11.01/100 * 25.98)

R. A. M = 18.949701 + 2.499 + 2.860398

R. A. M = 24.30099

R. A. M = ~ 24.3

Answer:

24.309 g/mol

Explanation:

To get the atomic mass, all we have to do is calculate with the masses of the three isotope, the real quantity present, taking account of the percent and then, do a sum of these three values. Like a pondered media.

For the first isotope:

23.99 * (78.99/100) = 18.95 g/mol

For the second isotope:

24.99 * (10/100) = 2.499 g/mol

For the last isotope:

25.98 * (11.01/100) = 2.86 g/mol

Now, let's sum all three together

AW = 18.95 + 2.499 + 2.86

AW = 24.309 g/mol

Answer:

It is true that earth was once covered with oceans and little dry land.

Explanation:

Over the course of around four billion years, the Earth's oceans have lost about a quarter of their original mass. Today the atmosphere is rich in oxygen, which reacts with both hydrogen and deuterium to recreate water, which falls back to the Earth's surface. So the vast bulk of the water on Earth is held in a closed system that prevents the planet from gradually drying out. According to the researchers,  the continents emerged relatively suddenly from an ocean that covered 95 percent of the Earth's surface. The appearance of large masses of dry land would have caused more extreme weather, changes in ocean currents and the emergence of proper seasons. In turn, these environmental changes may have led to rise in atmospheric oxygen that enabled the explosion of new life forms around 500 million years ago.

What is the balanced form of the following equation?. Br2 + S2O32– + H2O → Br1– + SO42– + H+.
zloy xaker [14]
For the equation to be balanced, the Atom's coefficient on the left side and the right side of the equation has to be equal

so, the answer would be : 

Br2 + S2032- + 5H20 -- >  BR2- + 2S02- + H+

Hope this helps

How many oxygen atoms are in 2(NO3)
torisob [31]

6 Oxygen atoms

Explanation:

In the molecule 2(NO₃):

An atom is the smallest indivisible particle of any substance. They chemically combine to give compounds and molecules. Some of them are able to exist on their own.

An element is a substance that has a unique atom.

      NO₃ has two elements: N   and O

      Number of atoms:

    N = 1

    O = 3

but we have two moles of NO₃

 O = 3 x 2 = 6

 N = 1 x 2 = 2
