Answer: Sol:-

Data provided in the question is :-

Atomic mass of isotope -1 = 64 amu

Atomic mass of isotope -2 = 66 amu

Atomic mass of isotope -3 = 67 amu

Atomic mass of isotope -4 = 68 amu

Atomic mass of isotope - 5 = 70 amu

Percentage abundace of isotope - 1 = 48.89 %

Percentage abundance of isotope -2 = 27.81 %

Percentage abundance of isotope - 3 = 4.11%

Percentage abundance of isotope-4 = 18.57%

Percentage abundance of isotope - 5 = 0.62 %

Formula used :-

Average atomic mass of an element =[ {(atomic mass of isotope-1 * percentage abundance of isotope-1) + ( atomic mass of isotope-2 * percentage abundance of isotope -2) + ( atomic mass of isotope -3 * percantege abundance of isotope-3 ) + ( atomic mass of isotope-4 * percentage abundance of isotope-4) + (atomic mass of isotope-5 * percentage abundance of isotope-5)} / 100]

Calculation :-

Put all the value in the formula :-

Average atomic mass of an element = [{(64 * 48.89) + (66 * 27.81) + (67 * 4.11) + (68 * 18.57) + (70 * 0.62)} / 100] amu

= [{(3128.96) + (1835.46) +(257.37) + (1262.76) + (43.4)} / 100] amu

= {(6528.04) / 100} amu

= 65.2804 amu

Average atomic mass of an element is = 65.2804 amu

Then this mass is approximatly equal to atomic mass of zinc so this element would be zinc

atomic mass of zinc = 65.38 \approx 65.2804 amu

A solution was found to have a 15.6 % transmittance at 500 nm, its wavelength of maximum absorption, using a cell with a path le
Gnesinka [82]

For the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm  is mathematically given as

A’ = 0.16138

<h3>What is the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm?</h3>

Absorbance (A) 2 – log (%T) = 2 – log (15.6) = 0.8069

Generally, the equation for the Beer’s law is mathematically given as

A = ε*c*l

0.8069 = ε*c*(5.00 )

ε*c = 0.16138 cm-1

then for when ε*c is constant

l’ = 1.00

A’ = (0.16138 cm-1)*(1.00 cm)

A’ = 0.16138

In conclusion, the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm is

A’ = 0.16138
