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

A 0.652-g sample of a pure strontium halide reacts with excess sulfuric acid. the solid strontium sulfate formed is separated, d
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The formula of the original halide is SrCl₂.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of this reaction is:

SrX₂ + H₂SO₄ → SrSO₄ + 2 HX, where X is the halide.

  • From the equation stichiometry, 1.0 mole of strontium halide will result in 1.0 mole of SrSO₄.
  • The number of moles of SrSO₄ <em>(n = mass/molar mass) </em>= (0.755 g) / (183.68 g/mole) = 4.11 x 10⁻³ mole.
  • The number of moles of SrX are  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
  • n = mass / molar mass, n =  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles and mass = 0.652 g.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ = mass / n = (0.652) / (4.11 x 10⁻³ moles) = 158.62 g/mole.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ (158.62 g/mole) = Atomic mass of Sr (87.62 g/mole) + (2 x Atomic mass of halide X).
  • The atomic mass of halide X = (158.62 g/mole) - (87.62 g/mole) / 2 = 71 / 2  g/mole = 35.5 g/mole.
  • This is the atomic mass of Cl.
  • <em>So, the formula of the original halide is SrCl₂</em>.

I need help with #2. I don't know what law to use for problem.
bagirrra123 [75]
This uses something called the combined gas law. The combined gas law is as follows: (P1*V1/T1) = (P2*V2/T2)
According to question 2, you are given the following values initially:
P1 = 680 mm Hg * (1 atm/760 mm Hg) = 0.895 atm
V1 = 20.0 L
T1 = 293 K
STP or standard temperature and pressure implies that the other values we know are:
P2 = 1 atm
T2 = 273 K
Our unknown is V2
If we plug in our known values into the combined gas law:
(P1*V1/T1) = (P2*V2/T2)
(0.895 atm * 20.0 L)/293K = (1 atm * X liters)/273 K
0.0611 L*atm/K = (1 atm * X liters)/273 K
16.7 L = X liters
Therefore, the volume occupied at STP is 16.7 liters
This makes sense because the gas would occupy a smaller volume at a lower temperature, since the gas would have a lower average kinetic energy.

Why doesn't the Earth usually feel solar winds?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

B. because of its strong magnetic field

Explanation:

The Earth does not feel dangerous solar winds because of the Earth's atmospherical shape. It's magnetic field within the atmosphere dissolves the particles that can have a bad effect on Earth. If the Earth did not have it's magnetic field, a lot of Earth's grasslands would've been ruined by now.
