Answer:

14.434 r.a.m.

Explanation:

  • The atomic mass of an element is a weighted average of its isotopes in which the sum of the abundance of each isotope is equal to 1 or 100%.

∵ The atomic mass of N = ∑(atomic mass of each isotope)(its abundance)

∴ The atomic mass of N = (atomic mass of N-14)(abundance of N-14) + (atomic mass of N-16)(abundance of N-16)

atomic mass of N-14 = 14.0 r.a.m, abundance of N-14 = percent of N-14/100 = 78.3/100 = 0.783.

atomic mass of N-16 = 16.0 r.a.m, abundance of N-16 = percent of N-16/100 = 21.7/100 = 0.217.

∴ The atomic mass of N = (atomic mass of N-14)(abundance of N-14) + (atomic mass of N-16)(abundance of N-16) = (14.0 r.a.m)(0.783) + (16.0 r.a.m)(0.217) = 14.434 r.a.m.

Arrange the orbitals in the order in which they fill and indicate the maximum number of electrons each can hold.
lions [1.4K]
An energy level of a certain atom is further divided into the orbitals. There are four (4) orbitals. These are the s orbitals, p orbitals, d orbitals, and f orbitals. They are already arranged above as to how they are to be filled. The number of electrons that each can hold are as follows:
 s orbitals = 2 electrons
 p orbitals = 6 electrons
 d orbitals = 10 electrons
 f orbitals = 14 electrons
