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

How many molecules of H2O are there in 1.0 g of H2O?
NISA [10]
Molar mass H₂O = 18.0 g/mol

number of moles :

1.0 / 18.0 => 0.055 moles

1 mole -------------- 6.02 x 10²³ molecules
0.055 moles --------  ? molecules

molecules = 0.055 x ( 6.02 x 10²³) / 1

molecules = 3.311x10²² / 1

= 3.311 x 10²² molecules

hope this helps!

Elemental iodine (I 2) is a solid at room temperature. What is the major attractive force that exists among different I 2 molecu
Ulleksa [173]

Explanation:

As I_{2} is a covalent compound because it is made up by the combination of two non-metal atoms. Atomic number of an iodine atom is 53 and it contains 7 valence electrons as it belongs to group 17 of the periodic table.

Therefore, sharing of electrons will take place when two iodine atoms chemically combine with each other leading to the formation of a covalent bonding.

Hence, weak forces like london dispersion forces will be present between a molecule of I_{2}.

The weak intermolecular forces which can arise either between nucleus and electrons or between electron-electron are known as dispersion forces. These forces are also known as London dispersion forces and these are temporary in nature.

thus, we can conclude that london dispersion force is the major attractive force that exists among different I_{2} molecules in the solid.

Which statement describes an open circuit? The circuit is incomplete and broken, and the lights in the circuit shine. The circui
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

the third option

Explanation:

The circuit is incomplete and broken, and the lights in the circuit do not shine.

An open circuit means an incomplete circuit.

The first option is wrong since the lights do not shine in an open circuit.

The second option is wrong since an open circuit is incomplete.

The fourth option is also wrong since an open circuit is broken or incomplete.

∴ The third option is correct.
