Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate their average atomic masses which is otherwise known as the relative atomic mass, we simply multiply the given abundances of the atoms and the given atomic masses.

The abundace is the proportion or percentage or fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature.

This can be expressed below:

        RAM = Σmₙαₙ

where mₙ is the mass of isotope n

           αₙ is the abundance of isotope n

for this problem:

RAM of Li = m₆α₆ + m₇α₇

       m₆ is mass of isotope Li-6

        α₆ is the abundance of isotope Li-6

       m₇ is mass of isotope Li-7

        α₇ is the abundance of isotope Li-7

What is the molar mass of sand (SiO2) to the hundredths place in g/mol?
ad-work [718]

Answer:

60.08g/mol

Explanation:

Given parameters:

   Formula of sand  = SiO₂

Find the molar mass of the compound to the hundredths place;

 Molar mass of Si = 28.085g/mol

  Molar mass of O  = 15.999

Molar mass = 28.085 + 2(15.999)  = 60.08g/mol

A polar commercial antacid contains both Al(OH)3 and Mg(OH)2. Are these compounds Arrhenius bases, Brønsted-Lowry based, or both
seropon [69]

Answer:

Magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2, is an Arrhenius base and therefore also a Brønsted-Lowry base.

However, water can also act as a base by accepting a proton from an acid to become its conjugate base, H3O+. where Al(OH)3 is acting as a Lewis Base.

Explanation:

Arrhenius acids and bases

An Arrhenius acid is any species that increases the concentration of H+start text, H, end text, start superscript, plus, end superscript in aqueous solution.

An Arrhenius base is any species that increases the concentration of OH−start text, O, H, end text, start superscript, minus, end superscript in aqueous solution.

Which properties are characteristic of group 2 elements at stp
Sindrei [870]

At <span>standard temperature and pressure, these elements have very similar properties; they are all shiny, silvery-white, semi-reactive metals that have industrial and biological applications. The Alkaline Earth Metals are elements of group 2 of the periodic table, which includes beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium. Moreover, group 2 elements are   nonmetallic substances that are insoluble in water and heat resistant in nature.</span>
