2.4 Bromium has two naturally occurring isotopes: 79Br, with an atomic weight of 78.918 amu, and 81Br, with an atomic weight of

80.916 amu. If the average atomic weight for Br is 79.903 amu, calculate the fraction-of-occurrences of these two isotopes.

Answer:

49.3% 81Br and 50.7% 79Br or \frac{493}{1000} 81Br and \frac{507}{1000} 79BR

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the fraction-of-occurrences of the isotopes we must write the following equation. x is the isotopic abundance of 81Br, we can use 1 - x to get the isotopic abundance of 79Br.

(78.918)(1 - x) + (80.916)(x) = 79.903

78.918 - 78.918x + 80.916x = 79.903

1.998x = 0.985

x = 0.493

0.493 × 100 = 49.3% 81Br

100 - 49.3 = 50.7% 79Br

49.3% 81Br and 50.7% 79Br or \frac{493}{1000} 81Br and \frac{507}{1000} 79BR

1) What is air pressure? (4 Points)
Nataly [62]

<span>1)    </span><span>What is air pressure? (Answ</span>er: Atmospheric pressure, sometimes also called barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.)

<span>2)    </span><span>What is a barometer and what is it used to measure? <span>(Answer: A barometer is a scientific instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather.)</span></span>

<span>3)    </span><span>How does air pressure change?  <span>(Answer: Millibar values used in meteorology range from about 100 to 1050. At sea level, standard air pressure in millibars is 1013.2. Weather maps showing the pressure at the surface are drawn using millibars. ... This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature.)</span></span>

<span>4)    </span><span>Why is cooler, drier air related to High Pressure? <span>(Answer: This is due to density differences between the two air masses. Since stronger high-pressure systems contain cooler or drier air, the air mass is denser and flows towards areas that are warm or moist, which are in the vicinity of low pressure areas in advance of their associated cold fronts.)</span></span>

<span>5)    </span><span>Why is warm, moister air related to Low Pressure?  <span>(Answer: When air warms, its molecules scatter. The air becomes lighter and rises.)</span></span>

What do scientists believe formed the moon's craters and regolith
seraphim [82]

Answer:

What is most widely accepted today is the giant-impact theory. It proposes that the Moon formed during a collision between the Earth and another small planet, about the size of Mars. The debris from this impact collected in an orbit around Earth to form the Moon.
