The answer is 64.907 amu.
The atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of its isotopes. The relative abundance of isotopes must be taken into consideration, therefore:
atomic mass of copper = atomic mass of isotope 1 * abundance 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 * abundance 2
We know:
atomic mass of copper = 63.546 amu
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: 62.939 amu
The abundance of isotope 1 is: 69.17% = 0.6917
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: x
The abundance of isotope 2: 100% - 69.17% = 30.83% = 0.3083
Thus:
63.546 amu = 62.939 amu * 0.6917 + x * 0.3083
63.546 <span>amu = 43.535 amu + 0.3083x
</span>⇒ 63.546 amu - 43.535 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ 20.011 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ x = 20.011 amu ÷ 0.3083 = 64.907 amu
Answer:
The correct answer is - 29.45 / 100 x 25.6 = 7.5392 grams
Explanation:
It is given in the question that in 100 gms of CaSO4 there are 29.45 grams of Ca present and there is 25.6 gram of total CaSO4 sample present, So, to calculate the exact value of calcium in this given sample is:
mass of Ca = total amount of sample*percentage of calcium in sample /100
M of Ca =25.6*29.45/100
M of Ca = 7.5392 grams
Thus, the correct procedure is given by 29.45 / 100 x 25.6 = 7.5392 grams
B. Theory
The hypothesis that stand the test of time (often tested and never rejected) is called theory. A theory is supported by a great dealcof evidence.
