Answer:

Mg²⁵   =   10.00%    

Mg²⁶   =   45.04%

Mg²⁴   =   44.96%

Explanation:

Given data:

Atomic mass of Mg²⁶ = 25.983

Atomic mass of Mg²⁵ = 24.986

Atomic mass of Mg²⁴ = 23.985

Abundance of Mg²⁵ = 10.00%

Abundance of Mg²⁶ = ?

Abundance of Mg²⁴ = ?

Solution:

Average atomic weight of Mg = 25.983  + 24.986+ 23.985 / 3

Average atomic weight of Mg = 74.954/3

Average atomic weight of Mg = 24.985 amu

Abundance of          

Mg²⁵   =   10.00    

Mg²⁶   =    x      

Mg²⁴   =   100- 10 - x = 90 -x    

Formula:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) + (abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

24.985 = (0.1×24.986)+(90-x×23.985) + ( x ×25.983 )  /100

24.985 =  249.86 + 2158.65 - 23.985x + 25.983x  / 100

24.985 = 2408.51 + 1.998 x / 100

2498.5 = 2408.51 + 1.998 x

1.998 x = 2498.5 - 2408.51

1.998 x = 89.99

x = 89.99 /1.998

x = 45.04

Now we put the value of x:

Mg²⁵   =   10.00    

Mg²⁶   =    x  (45.04)

Mg²⁴   =   90 -x   (90 - 45.04 = 44.96)

Classify each element as a metal, nonmetal, or semimetal. br in cr ca drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. view
goldenfox [79]
Below is the distribution of given elements and additional elements in their respective bins.

Iron, Magnesium, Aluminium, Calcium, Chromium and Indium are classified as Metals due to their hardness, conduction of current and heat, Solid state, formation of metallic bonding and prefers to form cations e.t.c

Oxygen, Neon and Bromine are classified as non-metals. Non-metals are mostly gases except for Bromine. They are highly volatile and prefers to form anions.

Semimetals are those metals which have both properties of metals and non-metals and are also called as metalloids.

A mixture of two miscible liquids with a widely different boiling point is distilled. The temperature of distilled liquid is obs
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The difference in temperature is significant means that the lower-boiling liquid finishes distilling at a temperature that is too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be in vapor form yet.

Explanation:

The temperature will rise as the vapor of lower-boiling liquid rushes into the distillation head. However once the lower-boiling liquid is done distilling, there is a temperature drop because while the lower temperature liquid is done distilling, the temperature is still too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be rushing in as a vapour, so the temperature drops.
