The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:What is the relative atomic mass of a hypothetical element that consists isotopes in the indicated natural abundances.

Isotope                    mass amu        Relative abundance

1                                77.9                     14.4

2                               81.9                     14.3

3                               85.9                      71.3

Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer: 84.2 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope 1 = 77.9  

% abundance of isotope 1 = 14.4% = \frac{14.4}{100}=0.144

Mass of isotope 2 = 81.9

% abundance of isotope 2 = 14.3% = \frac{14.3}{100}=0.143

Mass of isotope 3 = 85.9

% abundance of isotope 2 = 71.3% = \frac{71.3}{100}=0.713

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(77.9\times 0.144)+(81.9\times 0.143)+(85.9\times 0.713)]

A=84.2amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of a hypothetical element that consists isotopes in the indicated natural abundances is 84.2 amu

Scientist have genetically altered a common virus so that it can Destroy the most lethal type of brain tumor without harming the
sergey [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is - discovering or diagnosing the disease.

Explanation:

According to the question, this technology includes genetically modifying a common virus in order to destroy or kill the deadly brain tumor without affecting normal cells around the tumor, this technique is genetic engineering.

This technique can help in treating or curing the disease by killing the tumor cells and make them non-lethal. It can also prevent the tumor cells to grow and make them controlled. There is nothing mention related to diagnosing the disease in the question and it is not possible to find this tumor with help of such a technique.

A sample of gas has a volume of 1.40 L at a pressure of 225 mmHg. What is the new volume at a pressure of 515 mmHg?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:0.61L

Explanation:

P1V1/n1T1=P2V2/n2T2

n1=n2 T1=T2

Therefore;

P1V1=P2V2

225×1.4=515×V2

V2=0.61L

N.B: Increase in pressure leads to decreases in volume (Boyle's law)

How much energy has your body used, in joules, if your health
Verdich [7]

Answer:

  1. 1,882.8 joules
  2. 83.652 calories

Explanation:

Given:

Amount in calories = 450 calories

Amount in joules = 3.5 × 100 joules

Find:

  1. Change in joules
  2. Change in calories

Computation:

We know that,

1 calories = 4.184 joules

So,

Amount in calories = 450 calories

= 450 × 4.184

= 1,882.8 joules

Amount in joules = 3.5 × 100 joules

=  [3.5 × 100] / 4.184

= 83.652 calories
