The mass defect for the isotope thorium-234 if given mass is 234.04360 amu is 1.85864 amu.
<h3>How do we calculate atomic mass?</h3>
Atomic mass (A) of any atom will be calculated as:
A = mass of protons + mass of neutrons
In the Thorium-234:
Number of protons = 90
Number of neutrons = 144
Mass of one proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of one neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass of thorium-234 = 90(1.00728) + 144(1.00866)
Mass of thorium-234 = 90.6552 + 145.24704 = 235.90224 amu
Given mass of thorium-234 = 234.04360 amu
Mass defect = 235.90224 - 234.04360 = 1.85864 amu
Hence required value is 1.85864 amu.

First, we convert the given amount of energy into joules.
1 kJ = 1000 joules
2.2125 kJ = 2,212.5 Joules
Each kilocalorie contains 4,184 Joules
Kilocalories = 2,212.5 / 4,182
Kilocalories = 0.529
1 kilocalorie = 1000 calories
0.529 kilocalories = 529 calories
Answer:
the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
Explanation:
The λmax is the wavelength of maximum absorption. We could use it to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy difference as follows:
For ethylene
E= hc/λ= 6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/170×10^-9= 1.17×10^-18J
For cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
E= hc/λ=6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/230×10^-9=8.6×10^-19J
Therefore, the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
