Answer:

C. 100.7 amu

Explanation:

Isotopes of an element are atoms of an element with the same atomic number but different atomic masses. Each atomic mass of an isotope is known as an isotopic mass. An element that exhibits isotope, that is, that have two or more isotopes has a relative atomic mass that is not a whole number.

Relative atomic mass of X is the sum of the products of the relative abundances of each isotope and its isotopic mass.

For Isotope ¹⁰⁰X: 30% × 100 = 30 amu

For Isotope ¹⁰¹X: 70% × 101 = 70.7 amu

Relative atomic mass of X = (30 + 70.7) amu = 100.7 amu

Therefore, the approximate atomic mass of X is 100.7 amu

An excess of Ba(No3)2 reacts with 250ml of H2SO4 solution to give 0.55g of BaSo4.determine The concentration in moles per litre
Wewaii [24]
Chemical reaction: Ba(NO₃)₂ + H₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2HNO₃.
V(H₂SO₄) = 250 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 0,25 L.
m(BaSO₄) = 0,55 g.
n(BaSO₄) = m(BaSO₄) ÷ M(BaSO₄).
n(BaSO₄) = 0,55 g ÷ 233,38 g/mol.
n(BaSO₄) = 0,00235 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(BaSO₄) : n(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 1 : 1.
n(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 0,00235 mol.
c(Ba(NO₃)₂) = n(Ba(NO₃)₂) ÷ V.
c(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 0,00235 mol ÷ 0,25 L.
c(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 0,0095 mol/L.

A chemical reaction was carried out three times. The mass of the product was 8.93 g for the first trial, 8.94 g for the second t
joja [24]

The three mass value measure are precise mass

<u>explanation</u>

precise mass is term use to describe data from experiment that have  been repeated several times. An experiment that yield tightly grouped  set of data it has a high precision.  8.93 , 8.94  and 8.92 are precise mass since they have repeated severally
