Answer:

237.9 amu

Explanation:

Given data:

Abundance of U-234 = 0.0054 %

Abundance of  U-235 = 0.7204%

Abundance of  U-238 = 99.2742%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) + (abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass  / 100

Average atomic mass = (0.0054×234)+(0.7204×235) +(99.2742×238)  /100

Average atomic mass =  1.2636+ 169.294+ 23627.2596 / 100

Average atomic mass = 23797.8172/ 100

Average atomic mass = 237.9 amu.

Match the atoms which might substitute for one another. Match the items in the left column to the items in the right column.
valkas [14]
Atoms which might substitute for one another can be found in the same column in the periodic table. 
So, since Si and C are found in the same column, they can substitute each other.
1. Si = C
2. K = Na
3. Nb = V
4. Cu = Ag
5. P = As
6. Mg = Ca

In a voltaic (galvanic) cell, oxidation occurs at the _____ and is where _____ in the salt bridge moves toward.
Anna11 [10]

In a voltaic (galvanic) cell, oxidation occurs at the <u>anode</u> and is where <u>anions</u> in the salt bridge moves toward.

<h3>What is Galvanic Cell ?</h3>

Galvanic Cell or Voltaic Cell is an electrochemical cell that converts the energy of spontaneous redox reactions into electrical energy. In galvanic cell oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode. The anode is positive and cathode is negative, anode attracts anions from solution in an electrolytic cell.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that In a voltaic (galvanic) cell, oxidation occurs at the <u>anode</u> and is where <u>anions</u> in the salt bridge moves toward.

Sodium aton has lower electron affinity than chlorine atom why
Citrus2011 [14]
Electron affinity is the energy released when an electron is accepted by a neutral atom forming a negative ion. Chlorine has the higher electron affinity because it readily accepts an electron to become more stable. On the other hand, sodium have to give up an electron to complete its valence shell.
