<u>Answer:</u> The percentage abundance of _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} and _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotopes are 75.77% and 24.23% respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i   .....(1)

Let the fractional abundance of _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} isotope be 'x'. So, fractional abundance of _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotope will be '1 - x'

  • <u>For _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} isotope:</u>

Mass of _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} isotope = 34.9689 amu

Fractional abundance of _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} isotope = x

  • <u>For _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotope:</u>

Mass of _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotope = 36.9659 amu

Fractional abundance of _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotope = 1 - x

  • Average atomic mass of chlorine = 35.4527 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

35.4527=[(34.9689\times x)+(36.9659\times (1-x))]\\\\x=0.7577

Percentage abundance of _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} isotope = 0.7577\times 100=75.77\%

Percentage abundance of _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotope = (1-0.7577)=0.2423\times 100=24.23\%

Hence, the percentage abundance of _{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl} and _{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl} isotopes are 75.77% and 24.23% respectively.

Left Panel

Short answer A

<em><u>Solution</u></em>

Since you have been given choices, my sloppy numbers will do, but it anyone is going to see this, YOU SHOULD CLEAN  THEM UP WITH THE NUMBERS THAT COME FROM YOUR PERIODIC TABLE.

Equation

Sodium Phosphate + Calcium Chloride ===> Sodium Chloride + Calcium Phosphate.

Na3PO4 + CaCl2 ===> NaCl + Ca3(PO4)2

<em><u>Step One</u></em>

Balance the Equation

2Na2PO4 + 3CaCl2 ==> 6NaCl + Ca3(PO4)2

<em><u>Step Two</u></em>

Find the molar mass of CaCl2

Ca = 40

2Cl = 71

Molar Mass = 40 + 71 = 111 grams/mole

<em><u>Step Three</u></em>

Find the number of moles of CaCl2

Given mass = 379.4

Molar Mass = 111

moles = given Mass / molar Mass

moles of CaCl2 = 379.4/111 = 3.418 moles

<em><u>Step Four</u></em>

Find the number of moles of Ca3(PO4)2 needed.

This requires that you use the balance numbers from the balanced equation.

For every 3 moles of CaCl2 you have, you get 1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2

n_moles of Ca3(PO4)2 = 3.418 / 3 = 1.13933 moles

<em><u>Step Five</u></em>

Find the molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2

From the periodic table,

3Ca = 3 * 40 = 120

2 P  = 2 * 31 =    62

8 O = 8 * 16   =128

Molar Mass = 120 + 62 + 128= 310 grams per mole.

<em><u>Step Six</u></em>

1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2 has a molar mass of 310 gram

1.13933 moles of Ca3(PO4)2 = x

x = 1.13933 moles * 310 grams /mole

x = 353.2 grams. As you can see, even with my rounding I'm only out 0.3 of a gram. DON'T FORGET TO PUT THIS TO THE PROPER SIG DIGS IF SOMEONE ELSE IS GOING TO SEE IT.

Middle Panel

Short Answer C

Equation

2HCl + Mg ===> H2 + MgCl2

The object of the first part of the game is to find the number of moles of H2.

<em><u>Step One</u></em>

Find the moles of HCl

1 mole HCl = 35.5 + 1 = 36.5

n = given mass divided by molar mass

n = 49 grams / 36.5 = 1.34 moles.

The balanced equation tells you that for ever mole of H2 produced, you need 2 moles of HCl. That's what the balance numbers are for.

So the number of moles of H2 is 1.34 / 2 = 0.671 moles of H2.

Now we come to Part II. We have to use an new friend of yours that I have seen only once before from you.

Find V using PV = nRT

R is going to be in kPa so the value of R = 8.314

V = ???

n = 0.671 moles

T = 25 + 273 = 298oK

P = 101.3 kPa

101.3 * V= 0.671*8.314 * 298

V = 0.671 * 8.314 * 298 / 101.3

V = 16.4

The answer is C and again, I have rounded almost everything except R, although it can go out to 8 places.

Right Panel

I can't see the panel. I don't know what the problem is. Never mind I got it. I'm going to be a little skimpy on this one since I've done two like it and they are long.

LiOH + HBr ===> LiBr + H2O and the equation is balanced.

You have to figure out the moles of LiOH and HBr. Use the LOWEST number of moles

n_LiOH = given mass / molar mass = 117/(7 + 16 + 1) = 117 / 24 = 4.875 moles

n_HBr = given mass / molar mass =  141/(1 + 80) = 141 / 81 = 1.741 moles

HBr is the lower number. That's all the LiBr you are going to get is 1.741. There is no adjustment to be made from the balance equation.

n = given mass / molar mass  multiply both sides by the molar mass

n * Molar mass (LiBr) = n * (7 + 80) = 1.741 * 87 = 151 grams of

The answer is C

What types of organisms are most likely to become extinct (characteristics)?
Paladinen [302]
Many rare and/or endemic species exhibit one or more of the following attributes which make them especially prone to extinction: (1) narrow (and single) geographical range, (2) only one or a few populations, (3) small population size and little genetic variability, (4) over-exploitation by people

Add a constant temperature when the volume of the gas is decreased what happens to its pressure
Margaret [11]

Answer:

<h2>Pressure will increase</h2>

Explanation:

At a constant temperature, the pressure of gas will increase proportional to the decrease in volume of the gas.

P1V1= P2V2

Decrease in volume result in increase in pressure as the equation has to hold true.
