Average atomic mass of an element is a sum of the product of the isotope mass and its relative abundance.
For example: Chlorine has 2 isotopes with the following abundances
Cl(35): Atomic mass = 34.9688 amu; Abundance = 75.78%
Cl(37): Atomic mass = 36.9659 amu; Abundance = 24.22 %
Average atomic mass of Cl = 34.9688(0.7578) + 36.9659(0.2422) =
= 26.4993 + 8.9531 = 35.4524 amu
Thus, the term “ average atomic mass “ is a <u>weighted</u> average so it is calculated differently from a normal average
Answer:
21.02moles of KBr
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Number of moles BaBr₂ = 10.51moles
Complete reaction equation:
BaBr₂ + K₂SO₄ → KBr + BaSO₄
Upon inspecting the given equation, we find out that the atoms are not balanced on both sides of the equation:
The balanced equation is:
BaBr₂ + K₂SO₄ → 2KBr + BaSO₄
From the equation:
1 mole of BaBr₂ produces 2 moles of KBr
∴ 10.51 moles of BaBr₂ will yield (2 x 10.51) moles = 21.02moles of KBr
Answer:
they must have same atomic number and different atomic mass
To know the acidity of a
solution, we calculate the pH value. The formula for pH is given as:
<span>pH = - log [H+] where H+ must be in Molar</span>
We are given that H+ = 3.25 × 10-2 M
Therefore the pH is:
pH = - log [3.25 × 10-2]
pH = 1.488
Since pH is way below 7, therefore the solution
is acidic.
To find for the OH- concentration, we must
remember that the product of H+ and OH- is equivalent to 10^-14. Therefore,
[H+]*[OH-] = 10^-14 <span>
</span>[OH-] = 10^-14 / [H+]
[OH-] = 10^-14 / 3.25 × 10-2
[OH-] = 3.08 × 10-13 M
Answers:
Acidic
[OH-] = 3.08 <span>× 10-13 M</span>
