A strong acid must have a weak conjugate base and a weak acid must have a strong conjugate base. The reason behind this is simple.
A "strong" acid or base is actually one that is unstable and will readily dissociate when added to water. A "weak" acid or base is one that is stable, and does not dissociate in water.

If an acid is to be "strong", it must readily dissociate to release hydrogen ions. However, the conjugate base that is formed must also be stable, so that is does not combine back with the released hydrogen ions, making it a weak base.

Naturally occurring copper exists in two isotopic forms: 63Cu and 65Cu. The atomic mass of copper is 63.55 amu. What is the appr
Mariulka [41]
To calculate the average atomic weight, each exact atomic weight is multiplied by its percent abundance, then, add the results together.  If the natural abundance of 63Cu is assigned x, the natural abundance of 65Cu is 1-x (the two abundance always add up to 1). So the solution is: (63)(x)+(65)(1-x) = 63.55, 63x+65-65x=63.55, x=0.725=72.5%. The natural abundance of 63Cu is 72.5%, that of 65Cu is 1-72.5%=27.5%.

product side-
Ca=1
O=2
H=2
Reactant side-
Ca=1
O=2
H=2
The first one is balanced for you 
There is 1 calcium on each side 2 oxygens on each side and 2 hydrogens on each side
