To take a weighted average of all the naturally occurring isotopes of an element in order to arrive at an average

Chemistry

stiks02 [169]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

o multiply the mass of each isotope by the decimal fraction representing its abundance naturally, then add all these products  together.

Explanation:

To find the average atomic mass of an atom, take the weighted average of all naturally occurring isotopes of an element and sum them together.

  • The average atomic mass is determined from the geonormal abundances of the isotopes.

 Average mass of all isotopes  =  summation of all the  mass of isotopes of the element x abundance of the isotope.

 The abundance of the isotope is usually taken as a decimal fraction.

De que factores dependen la constante de equilibrio ​
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

La constante de equilibrio (K) se expresa como la relación entre las concentraciones molares (mol/l) de reactivos y productos. Su valor en una reacción química depende de la temperatura, por lo que ésta siempre debe especificarse.

If a particular ore contains 55.4 % calcium phosphate, what minimum mass of the ore must be processed to obtain 1.00 kg of phosp
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
 The ore contains 55.4% calcium phosphate (related to the mineral apatite) so the amount of Ca3(PO4)2 is 55.4%x=1000g so x=1000/0.554= 1.805kg. Now for the % of P in this amount of calcium phosphate, use all the masses of the elements in Ca3PO4= Ca=40.078 x 3= 120.23 and (PO4)2= (30.974+64)2=189.95  (NB oxygen is 16 mass x 4 =64) so the total mass is 310.2 and we have 61.95 of P (Pmass x 2) so 61.95/3102.= 0.19 or 19% P. So of the 1.805 x 0.19= 0.34kg of phosphorus.
