The image shows the representation of an unknown element in the periodic table. A square is shown. Inside the square twelve is w

ritten at the top righthand side. To the middle left side, Symbol is written. Below it Name is written. And further below near the bottom edge of the square, twenty-four point three zero five is written. Based on the representation, which of the following statements about the element is true?
The number of neutrons in an atom of the element is 24.
The combined mass of all the protons and electrons is 24.305.
The combined mass of all the neutrons and electrons is 24.305.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is the mass number of the most common isotope of the element is 24.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

An element having atomic number 12 is magnesium and atomic mass of the element is 24.305

The image corresponding will be _{24.305}\textrm{Mg}^{12}\\\text{Magnesium}

The number '24.305' is the average atomic mass of magnesium element.

Average atomic mass is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i

Average atomic mass of magnesium = 24.305 amu

As, the average atomic mass of magnesium lies closer to the mass of Mg-24 isotope. This means that the relative abundance of this isotope is the highest of all the other isotopes.

The 'Mg-24' isotope is the most common isotope of the given element.

Hence, the correct answer is the mass number of the most common isotope of the element is 24.

Determine the length of the object shown <br>A. 97.8 mm<br>B. 97.80 mm<br>C. 97 mm<br>D. 98 mm​
jeka94

Answer:

A. 97.8 mm  

Explanation:

There are 10 divisions between 9 cm (90 mm) and the end of the ruler (10 cm or 100 mm).

Each division equals 1 mm.

Each 5 mm mark has a longer tick, and the dashed red line is between the 97 mm and 98 mm marks.

You would normally estimate to the nearest tenth of a division. An estimate of 0.8 mm is reasonable.

The length of the object is 97.0 mm + 0.8 mm = 97.8 mm.

B is wrong. You can't possibly estimate to the nearest hundredth of a division.  

C is wrong. The dashed red line slightly before the 98 mm mark.

D is wrong. If the dashed red line were exactly on the 98 mm mark, you would record the measurement as 98.0 mm. This indicates that you measured the object to zero tenths on either side of the mark.

(CH3)2-CH-CH2-O(CH3)3IUPAC NAME
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane

Note: there is a mistake in formula, the correct formula is (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O-C(CH₃)₃ not (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O(CH₃)₃, because oxygen is a divalent compound.

Explanation:

<em>Structural formula is attached</em>

IUPAC naming rules

1. start numbering the chain from the functional group. In this compound we        start from oxygen side.

2. Here we can see that at position 1 there is an oxy group along with a tertiary carbon having three methyl groups. So we write it as 1-tert-butoxy. Which means that there is a methoxy group at position 1 along with a tertiary carbon.

3. At position 2 we can see that there is a methyl group attached to the main chain, so we write it as 2-methyl.

4. Now we count the total number of carbons in the main chain. As we can see that there are 3 carbons in the remaining or parent chain, so we write it as propane

5. So the IUPAC name of the compound will be 1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane
