<u>Answer:</u> The mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mass defect is defined as the difference in the mass of an isotope and its mass number.
The equation used to calculate mass defect follows:
![\Delta m=[(n_p\times m_p)+(n_n\times m_n)]-M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B%28n_p%5Ctimes%20m_p%29%2B%28n_n%5Ctimes%20m_n%29%5D-M)
where,
= number of protons
= mass of one proton
= number of neutrons
= mass of one neutron
M = mass number of element
We are given:
An isotope of phosphorus which is 
Number of protons = atomic number = 15
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 31 - 15 = 16
Mass of proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass number of phosphorus = 30.973765 amu
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta m=[(15\times 1.00728)+(16\times 1.00866)]-30.973765\\\\\Delta m=0.27399](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B%2815%5Ctimes%201.00728%29%2B%2816%5Ctimes%201.00866%29%5D-30.973765%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CDelta%20m%3D0.27399)
Hence, the mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399

pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 4.20 = 9.80
[OH-] = 10^(-pOH) = 10^(-9.80) = 1.6 x 10^-10 M

Answer: both compounds have ionic bond between metal and non-metal
Explanation: both Sr and Mg are earth alkaline metals and form ions Mg^2+
And Sr^2+. Br forms ion Br^- and S ion is S^2+.
Answer: m = 50 g ZnSO4
Explanation: First is convert the moles of Zn to the moles of ZnSO4 by having their mole ratio which is 2:2 based from the balanced equation. Next is convert the moles of ZnSO4 to mass using its molar mass.
0.311 mole Zn x 2 moles ZnSO4 / 2 moles Zn
= 0.311 moles ZnSO4
0.311 moles ZnSO4 x 161 g ZnSO4 / 1 mole ZnSO4
= 50 ZnSO4
