Answer:

71 Ga has a naturally abundance of 36%

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Gallium has 2 naturally occurring isotopes: this means the abundance of the 2 isotopes together is 100 %. The atomic weight of Ga is 69.72 amu. This is the average of all the isotopes.

Since the average mass of 69.72 is closer to the mass of 69 Ga, this means 69 Ga will be more present than 71 Ga

Percentage 69 Ga> Percentage 71 Ga

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the abundance %

⇒Percentage of 71 Ga = X %

⇒Percentage of 69 Ga = 100 % - X %

The mass balance equation will be:

100*69.72 = x * 71 + (100 - x)*69

6972 = 71x + 6900 -69x

72 = 2x

x = 36 %

71 Ga has a naturally abundance of 36%

69 Ga has a naturally abundance of 64%

Answer:

13 years

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

Where;

t1/12 = half-life of Cobalt-60 = 5.3 years

t = time taken = the unknown

No = mass of radioactive material originally present = 5.2 g

N = mass of radioactive material at time t = 0.95 g

Substituting values;

0.693/5.3 = 2.303/t log (5.2/0.95)

0.131 = 2.303/t(0.738)

0.131 = 1.6996/t

t =  1.6996/0.131

t = 12.97 years

t = 13 years(to the nearest whole number)

How many atoms are in 0.500mol of calcium?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

3.01×10²³ atoms of calcium

Explanation:

number of moles = number of atoms/Avogadro's constant

n = N/NA

N = n×NA = 0.500 mol×6.02×10²³ mol^-1

N = 3.01×10²³ atoms of calcium

Does salt affect how long an ice cube melts?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Ice cubes with salt melt faster. When you add salt, it dissolves in the water of the ice cube. The freezing temperature of salt water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit lower than that of fresh water.
