Answer:

How results are expressed.

Explanation:

The difference between the two types of abundances is how each of them are expressed. As we know, abundances are quantities (amount of isotope in an <em>original</em> element) , and these quantities can be expressed in different ways:

In relative abundance the simple quantity of isotopes is expressed.
In percent abundance the quantity of isotopes is expressed in every 100. In other words, as a percentage.

Hope it helped,

The difference between relative abundance and percent abundance is that relative abundance refers relatively to the number of items you used in the experiment, where as the Percent abundance is referring to how many of each items there are in every hundred items.

Percent abundance is how abundant an isotope is in nature or the universe; it is how common or rare an isotope is. I hope this made sense.

Assume at exactly 100.0°c and 1.00 atm total pressure, 1.00 mole of liquid water and 1.00 mole of water vapor occupy 18.80 ml an

Grace [21]

Answer 1) : When we calculate the ΔQ = -40.66 kJ (heat of vaporisation).

Then, we can relate the work done with this equation,

ΔW = -PΔV

First we need to calculate the volume, which will be,

Volume of water vapor = (nRT) / (P)

Then, V = (1 mole) X (0.0821 L X atm/mole X K) X (373.15K) / (1atm) = 30.6 liters So, it is given, and verified.

Volume of Water can be used for finding the; Density = M / V

D = ( 1 mole) X (18.02 g/mole) / (18.80 mL) = 0.9585 g/mL

On, substituting the values, we get,

ΔW = -PΔV

Work = - (1 atm) X (0.00188L - 30.62L) X 0.1013kJ/L X atm = 3.10 kJ

hence the work done is 3.10 kJ

Answer 2) Now, for calculating the internal energy, we can use the formula as,

ΔE = ΔQ + ΔW

Here, we have the values of ΔQ = -40.66 kJ and ΔW as = 3.10 kJ

So, we get, ΔE = (-40.66) + (3.10) = - 37.55 kJ

Therefore, the change in the internal energy will be -37.55 kJ.

How much positive charge is in 1.4 kg of oxygen? The atomic weight (15.9994 g) of oxygen contains Avogadro’s number of atoms, wi

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$6.7511\times 10^7\ C$

Explanation:

The atomic weight of oxygen = 15.9994 g

This mass corresponds to 1 mole of the oxygen atoms.

Thus,

15.9994 g mass of oxygen contains $6.02\times 10^{23}$ atoms of oxygen.

1.4 kg = 1400 g ( 1 kg = 1000 g)

So,

1400 g mass of oxygen contains $\frac {6.02\times 10^{23}}{15.9994}\times 1400$ atoms of oxygen.

Number of atoms in 1400 g of oxygen = $526.769754\times 10^{23}$

Also, 1 atom of oxygen contains 8 protons

Charge of 1 proton = + $1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C$

So, Charge on 1 atom of oxygen = $8\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Thus,

Charge on $526.769754\times 10^{23}$ atoms of oxygen = $526.94476\times 10^{23}\times 8\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C=6.7533\times 10^7\ C$

Thus, positive charge in 1.4 kg of oxygen = $6.7511\times 10^7\ C$
