Naturally occurring magnesium exists as three isotopes. 78.70% is Mg-24 with a mass of 23.98504 amu, 10.13% is Mg-25 with a mass

of 24.98584 amu, and 11.17% is Mg-26 with a mass of 25.98259 amu. What is the atomic mass of magnesium?

Answer:

The correct answer is 24.31 amu.

Explanation:

The formula for finding the average atomic mass = The sum of the percentage abundance of isotopes × the actual mass of isotopes

The average atomic mass = % abundance of Mg-24 × actual mass + % abundance of Mg-25 × its actual mass + % abundance of Mg-26 × its actual mass

Avg. Atomic mass = 0.7870 × 23.98504 + 0.1013 × 24.98584 + 0.1117 × 25.98259

Avg. atomic mass = 18.88 + 2.53 + 2.90 = 24.31 amu

The atomic mass of magnesium is 24.31 amu.

Serga [27]

Answer:

40 g

Explanation:

Find the line labeled KClO3 (which might take you a min, theres a lot of lines here)

Notice that when the line creates a direct point, you can measure the exact temperature needed to dissolve a certain amount (like how they gave 30 degrees and it lined up perfectly with the 10 g line. )

Since its asking for the amount at 80 degrees, all you need to do is trace the line to the 80 degree point, and look at the grams. (notice it made a direct point, so there definitely should be any decimals or guesswork)

By reading the graph, you can tell that at 80 degrees, it dissolves 40 grams, and that is your answer.

Hope this helps :)
