Answer:
The mass of heavier isotope is 345.6 amu.
Explanation:
Given data:
atomic wight of compound = 342.38 amu
lighter isotope mass = 340.91 amu
abundance of lighter isotope = 68.322%
mass of heavier isotope = ?
Solution:
average atomic mass = ( % age abundance of lighter isotope × its atomic mass) + (% age abundance of heavier isotope × its atomic mass) / 100
percentage of heavier isotope = 100- 68.322 = 31.678
Now we will put the values in formula.
342.38 = (68.322× 340.91) + (31.678 × X) / 100
342.38 = 23291.65302 + (31.678 × X) / 100
342.38 × 100 = 23291.65302 + (31.678 × X)
34238 -23291.65302 = (31.678 × X)
10946.35 / 31.678 = X
345.6 = X
The mass of heavier isotope is 345.6 amu.
I believe the answer is Zinc because it has 30protona

Explanation:
Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a reaction to occur. All reactions require there activation energy to be met before the reaction can proceed. When the temperature of a reaction is increased, the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules increases; colliding more with each other, which makes them "surmount" the activation energy of the reaction faster as compared to a lower temperature.
In combustion, there is burning of an hydrocarbon (in this case propane) in excess oxygen. The burning assists in increasing the kinetic energy of the reactant particles which in turn easily surmounts the activation energy of the reaction by colliding (effective collision) more with oxygen. So, the reaction has an activation energy but the activation energy has been met and passed and hence the reaction is proceeding faster.
Increasing the temperature of a reaction is one of the ways of increasing the rate of a chemical reaction.
