In general chemistry, isotopes are a group of substances that belong to the same element. An element is characterized in the periodic table by their atomic number, which is the number of protons in an atom. Therefore, these substances have the same atomic numbers, but differ in mass numbers. Mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
To determine the atomic weight of an element, you take the average weight of all the existent isotopes of that said element. The calculation would require to multiply the exact mass of the isotope to its abundance. Then, sum them all up.
Atomic weight = 98(0.18) + 112(0.82)
Atomic weight = 109.48 amu
Your answer would be 58.12g/mol ;)

Answer:
A. K
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember the trends in the Periodic Table:
- Atomic radii <em>decrease</em> from left to right across a Period.
- Atomic radii <em>increase</em> from top to bottom in a Group.
- Ionic radii of metal cations are <em>smaller</em> than those of their atoms.
Thus, the largest atoms are in the lower left corner of the Periodic Table.
The diagram below shows that K is closest to the lower left, so it is the largest atom. It is also larger than any of the cations.
Answer: 159 grams
Explanation:
Copper (ii) oxide has the chemical formula CuO.
Now given that:
Mass of CuO in grams = ? (let unknown value be Z)
Number of moles = 2.00 moles
Molar mass of CuO = ?
For the molar mass of CuO: Atomic mass of Copper = 63.5g ; Oxygen = 16g
= 63.5g + 16g
= 79.5 g/mol
Apply the formula:
Number of molecules = (mass in grams/molar mass)
2.00 moles = (Z / 79.5 g/mol)
Z = 79.5 g/mol x 2.00 moles
Z = 159g
Thus, there are 159 grams in 2.00 moles of copper (ii) oxide
