Answer:

Water acts as a Brønsted-Lowry Base.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the theories describing acids, we say that a Brønsted-Lowry Acid is such substance which is able to donate a H⁺ and a Brønsted-Lowry base is such substance which is able to accept a donated H⁺.

In such a way, since hydronium (H₃O⁺) is a product, meaning that water received one H⁺, we conclude water is acting as a Brønsted-Lowry base. Moreover, ammonium ion acts as Brønsted-Lowry Acid.

Best regards.

Boron has an average mass of 10.81. One isotope of boron has a mass of 10.012938 and a relative abundance of 19.80 percent. The
Andrej [43]

The average mass of an atom is calculated with the formula:

average mass = abundance of isotope (1) × mass of isotope (1) + abundance of isotope (2) × mass of isotope (2) + ...  an so on

For the boron we have two isotopes, so the formula will become:

average mass of boron = abundance of isotope (1) × mass of isotope (1) + abundance of isotope (2) × mass of isotope (2)

We plug in the values:

10.81 = 0.1980 × 10.012938  + 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)

10.81 = 1.98 + 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)

10.81 - 1.98 = 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)

8.83 = 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)

mass of isotope (2) = 8.83 / 0.8020

mass of isotope (2) = 11.009975

mass of isotope (1) = 10.012938 (given by the question)
