<h3>The average atomic mass of Iodine : 126.86 amu</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

80% 127I, 17% 126I, and 3% 128I.

Required

The average atomic mass

Solution

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% + ... mass isotope n.%

Atomic mass of Iodine = 0.8 x 127 + 0.17 x 126 + 0.03 x 128

Atomic mass of Iodine = 101.6 + 21.42 + 3.84

Atomic mass of Iodine = 126.86 amu

If an element is more reactive, is it more likely to be found as an element or a compound?
laila [671]
It is more likely to be found as a COMPOUND, as it is more reactive, by the time we found them, they're already reacted with other elements or compounds to form new compounds.
Example is oxygen, it is very reactive, therefore we often found oxygen in water, which is H2O, in earth, instead of just pure oxygen.

Write the balanced equation for each of the following changes and identify whether heat is a product or needed to start the reac
storchak [24]

Explanation:

(a) the sublimation of dry ice [conversion of CO2(s) directly to CO2(g)]

The balanced equation is given as;

CO2(s) --> CO2(g)

This reaction is endothermic, hence; Heat is a reactant and is needed to start the reaction.

(b) the reaction of 1 mol of sulfur dioxide with oxygen.

The balanced equation is given as;

2SO2 + O2 --> 2SO3

This reaction is exothermic, hence; Heat is a product and is given off by the reaction.
