Answer:

221.37 u

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})

Given that:

For first isotope:

% = 65.51 %

Mass = 223.95 u

For second isotope:

Since the element has only 2 isotopes, so the percentage of second is 100 - first percentage.

% = 100 %  - 65.51 %  = 34.49 %

Let, Mass = x u

Given, Average Mass = 223.06 u

Thus,  

223.06=\frac {65.51}{100}\times {223.95}+\frac {34.49}{100}\times {x}

Solving for x, we get that:

x = 221.37 u

<u>Thus mass of second isotope = 221.37 u</u>

A deficiency in B6 (pyridoxal phosphate) would negatively impact which of the following pathways: 1. Metabolism of homocysteine
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.

Explanation:

The metabolism of homocysteine produces a sulfur amino acid that is normally formed from methionine during the fulfillment of its function as a donor of methyl groups. Metabolic fate such as remethylation and transsulfuration, involving the enzymatic forms of the vitamins folacin, B12, and B6, gives rise to homocysteine and mixed disulfides including so-called protein-linked homocysteine, the main form circulating in plasma. B6 deficiency would have a direct impact on the metabolism of homocysteine to cysteine.

Have a nice day!

What portion of your salt solution in ice water system is: a. A mixture? b. A solution?
ahrayia [7]

The salt and water are a homogeneous mixture but when salt dissolves in the water system is called a solution of salt and water.

<h3>What is a mixture? </h3>

A mixture is defined as the combination of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded together.

There are two types of mixture which include:

  • Homogeneous (uniform composition) and

  • Heterogeneous mixtures

When salt is added to the ice water system, it lowers the freezing point of the ice water thereby forming a homogenous mixture of water and salt.

The dissolution of salt in ice water leads to the formation of salt and water solution.

Label A is showing___ frequency waves, and label B is showing ___ frequency waves
igomit [66]

It's not really possible to tell longitudinal vs. transverse in this image as given. However, we can say that the waves labeled A are high-frequency (short wavelengths) while the waves labeled B are low-frequency (long wavelengths). So, this third answer choice would be correct here.

Calculate the volume of a sample of aluminum that has a mass of 3.057 kg. The density of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm3 (taking into con
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

v = 1130 cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of sample = ?

Mass of Al sample = 3.057 Kg (3.057 Kg× 1000g/1 Kg = 3057g)

Density of Al sample = 2.70 g/cm³

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v= volume

by putting values

2.70 g/cm³ = 3057g /v

v = 3057g /2.70 g/cm³

v = 1130 cm³
