By breaking the hydrogen bonds that cause surface tension
Answer:
platinum-189 symbol is PT
Answer is: silicon isotope with mass number 28 has highest relative abundance, this isotope is the most common of these three isotopes.
Ar₁(Si) = 28; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁸Si.
Ar₂(Si) =29; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁹Si.
Ar₃(Si) =30; the average atomic mass of isotope ³⁰Si.
Silicon (Si) is composed of three stable isotopes, ₂₈Si (92.23%), ₂₉Si (4.67%) and ₃₀Si (3.10%).
ω₁(Si) = 92.23%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁸Si.
ω₂(Si) = 4.67%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁹Si.
ω₃(Si) = 3.10%; mass percentage of isotope ³⁰Si.
Ar(Si) = 28.086 amu; average atomic mass of silicon.
Ar(Si) = Ar₁(Si) · ω₁(B) + Ar₂(Si) · ω₂(Si) + Ar₃(Si) · ω₃(Si).
28,086 = 28 · 0.9223 + 29 · 0.0467 + 30 · 0.031.
Answer:
IO₂
Explanation:
We have been given the mass percentages of the elements that makes up the compound:
Mass percentage given are:
Iodine = 79.86%
Oxygen = 20.14%
To calculate the empirical formula which is the simplest formula of the compound, we follow these steps:
> Express the mass percentages as the mass of the elements of the compound.
> Find the number of moles by dividing through by the atomic masses
> Divide by the smallest and either approximate to nearest whole number or multiply through by a factor.
> The ratio is the empirical formula of the compound.
Solution:
I O
% of elements 79.86 20.14
Mass (in g) 79.86 20.14
Moles(divide by
Atomic mass) 79.86/127 20.14/16
Moles 0.634 1.259
Dividing by
Smallest 0.634/0.634 1.259/0.634
1 2
The empirical formula is IO₂
