Chlorine (Cl) is 76% chlorine-35 and 24% chlorine-37. Determine the average atomic mass of chlorine. Show/Explain work.
Flura [38]

Answer:

Average atomic mass of chlorine is 35.48 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percent abundance of Cl-35 = 76%

Percent abundance of Cl-37 = 24%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (76×35)+(24×37) /100

Average atomic mass =  2660 + 888 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 3548/ 100

Average atomic mass = 35.48 amu

Average atomic mass of chlorine is 35.48 amu.

The following equilibrium is formed when copper and bromide ions are placed in a solution:
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A)

1. Reaction will shift rightwards towards the products.

2. It will turn green.

3. The solution will be cooler..

B) It will turn green.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the stated equilibrium:

heat + Cu(H_2O)_6 ^{+2} (blue) + 4Br^- \rightleftharpoons 6H_2O + CuBr_4^{-2} (green)

In such a way, by thinking out the Le Chatelier's principle, we can answer to each question:

A)

1. If potassium bromide, which adds bromide ions, is added more reactant is being added to the solution, therefore, the reaction will shift rightwards towards the products.

2. The formation of the green complex is favored, therefore, it will turn green.

3. The solution will be cooler as heat is converted into "cold" in order to reestablish equilibrium.

B) In this case, as the heat is a reactant, if more heat is added, more products will be formed, which implies that it will turn green.

Regards.

What is the density of object A? Does it sink<br> or float in water?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

~1.5 g/cm3 and it does NOT float in water.

Explanation:

If you look at the graph, Object A weighs ~6 grams and is ~4 cm3 in volume

Density = Mass/Volume

So 6 grams/4 cm3 = 1.5 g/cm3

Water has a density of 1 g/cm3 and because Object A density is higher than that of water, it sinks.
