Answer:
20.2 amu.
Explanation:
Let A represent isotope ²⁰X
Let B represent isotope ²²X
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
For Isotope A (²⁰X):
Mass of A = 20
Abundance (A%) = 90%
For Isotope B (²²X):
Mass of B = 22
Abundance (A%) = 10%
Relative atomic mass (RAM) =?
The relative atomic mass (RAM) of the element can be obtained as follow:
RAM = [(Mass of A × A%)/100] + [(Mass of B × B%)/100]
RAM = [(20 × 90)/100] + [(22 × 10)/100]
RAM = 18 + 2.2
RAM = 20.2 amu
Thus, relative atomic mass (RAM) of the element is 20.2 amu
Something moving. Change in temperature.
Answer: Statements (A), and (C) are correct.
Explanation:
The statements that are true are as follows.
- Particles in a liquid need to move more slowly in order to freeze.
When a liquid freezes the molecules get attracted towards each other. This attraction of particles occurs slowly. Hence, this statement is true.
- Attractive forces between the particles in a liquid are broken when a liquid boils.
When temperature is raised, the molecules in a liquid gains kinetic energy and start to move quickly in random directions. As a result, liquid state changes to gaseous state. Hence, this statement is true.
If the attractive force between gas molecules have to be increased, they should be moving slower instead because moving faster does not help attracting molecules together.
Hence, the statement particles in gas move fast enough to make more attractive forces when the gas condenses is not true.
Answer:
c. Compound 2 is more acidic because its conjugate base is more resonance stabilized
Explanation:
You haven't told us what the compounds are, so let's assume that the formula of Compound 1 is HCOCH₂OH and that of Compound 2 is CH₃COOH.
The conjugate base of 2 is CH₃COO⁻. It has two important resonance contributors, and the negative charge is evenly distributed between the two oxygen atoms.
CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇌ CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺
The stabilization of the conjugate base pulls the position of equilibrium to the right, so the compound is more acidic than 1.
