Percentage of isotopes in 35/17 Cl and 37/17 Cl

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sedaia [141]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of Chlorine = 35.45 amu

The percentage of isotopes is the percentage abundance.

This is given by;

Average atomic mass = (Mass of isotope * Percentage abundance of 35/17 Cl) + (Mass of isotope * Percentage abundance 37/17 Cl)

Let percentage abundance of 35/17 Cl = x

Then percentage abundance of 37/17 Cl = 1 - x

Putting the values in the equation;

35.45 = (35 * x)   + (37 * (1-x))

35.45 = 35x + 37 - 37x

35.45 - 37 = 35x - 37x

- 1.55 = -2x

x = 1.55 / 2 = 0.775

Percentage abundance of 35/17 Cl = 0.775 * 100 = 77.5%

Percentage abundance of 37/17 Cl = (1 - 0.775) * 100 = 22.5%

Describe the displacement method for measuring the volume of an object
jeyben [28]
<span>Volume is a measure of the amount of space an object takes up. When a cylinder is submerged in the water it pushes water out of the way. If you measure the amount the water level increases, you can find the volume of the water pushed out of the way. </span>

Why do we use a double arrow in the dissociation equation for a weak acid answer?
Zepler [3.9K]
Answer is: because weak acids do not dissociate completely.

The strength of an Arrhenius acid determines percentage of ionization of acid and the number of H⁺ ions formed. <span>
Strong acids completely ionize in water and give large amount ofhydrogen ions (H</span>⁺), so we use only one arrow, because reaction goes in one direction and there no molecules of acid in solution.

For example hydrochloric acid: HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

<span> Weak acid partially ionize in water and give only a few hydrogen ions (H</span>⁺), in the solution there molecules of acid and ions.

For example cyanide acid: HCN(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + CN⁻(aq).

Korvikt [17]

Vanadium(V) oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula V₂O₅. Commonly known as vanadium pentoxide, it is a brown/yellow solid, although when freshly precipitated from aqueous solution, its colour is deep orange. Because of its high oxidation state, it is both an amphoteric oxide and an oxidizing agent.

formula:V2O5
