Elemental exonium (not a real element) consists of two major isotopes abundance mass 18% 98 amu 82% 112 amu what is the atomic w
pishuonlain [190]
In general chemistry, isotopes are a group of substances that belong to the same element. An element is characterized in the periodic table by their atomic number, which is the number of protons in an atom. Therefore, these substances have the same atomic numbers, but differ in mass numbers. Mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. 

To determine the atomic weight of an element, you take the average weight of all the existent isotopes of that said element. The calculation would require to multiply the exact mass of the isotope to its abundance. Then, sum them all up.

Atomic weight = 98(0.18) + 112(0.82)
Atomic weight = 109.48 amu

How does the law of conservation of mass apply to this reaction: Mg + HCl > H2 + MgCl2 ?​
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Chemical equation:

Mg + HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂

24 g + 36.5 g = 2 g+ 95 g

60.5 g = 97 g

The reaction does not hold the law of conservation of mass, because it is not balanced.

Balanced chemical equation:

Mg + 2HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂

24 g + 73 g = 2 g+ 95 g

97 g = 97 g

this equation completely follow the law of conservation of mass.
