The average atomic mass of Boron: 10.431 amu

<h3>Further explanation   </h3>

Isotopes are atoms whose no-atom has the same number of protons while still having a different number of neutrons.  

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)  

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes  

In determining the mass of an atom, as a standard is the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom whose mass is 12 amu  

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

The average atomic mass of boron :

\tt avg~mass=0.8474\times 10.0129+0.1526\times 11.0093\\\\avg~mass=10.431~amu

A 3.96x10^-24 M solution of compound A exhibited an absorbance of 0.624 at 238 nm in a 1.000-cm cuvet; a blank solution containi
viktelen [127]

Actual question from source:-

A 3.96x10-4 M solution of compound A exhibited an absorbance of 0.624 at 238 nm in a 1.000 cm cuvette.  A blank had an absorbance of 0.029.  The absorbance of an unknown solution of compound A was 0.375.  Find the concentration of A in the unknown.

Answer:

Molar absorptivity of compound A = 1502.53\ {Ms}^{-1}

Explanation:

According to the Lambert's Beer law:-

A=\epsilon l c

Where, A is the absorbance

 l is the path length  

\epsilon is the molar absorptivity

c is the concentration.  

Given that:-

c = 3.96\times 10^{-4}\ M

Path length = 1.000 cm

Absorbance observed = 0.624

Absorbance blank = 0.029

A = 0.624 - 0.029 = 0.595

So, applying the values in the Lambert Beer's law as shown below:-

0.595=\epsilon\times 1.000\ cm\times 3.96\times 10^{-4}\ M

\epsilon=\frac{0.595}{3.96\times 10^{-4}}\ {Ms}^{-1}=1502.53\ {Ms}^{-1}

<u>Molar absorptivity of compound A = 1502.53\ {Ms}^{-1}</u>

What is the mass, in grams, of two liters of water?
erma4kov [3.2K]
Well, 2 litres is 2 kilograms. 1000 grams = 1 kilogram

So that means that 2 litres of water = 2000 grams

A good definition of snow and how snow is important to the water cycle.
IRISSAK [1]
Snow is the result of moisture and low temperatures colliding; when they collide, they become tiny ice crystals. When ice crystals stick to one another, they become snowflakes. Snow is important to the water cycle because when they precipitate to the earth, they start to melt on surfaces warmer than themselves. The melted result becomes water, and when the water either seeps into the ground or flows into a source of water nearby, the water cycle's process repeats all over again.

Which hypothesis is most supported by astronomers?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Once I read a NASA post where they were saying that the universe keeps expanding as matter keeps forming and cooling down thus adding to the size of the universe so keeping this in mind, the best answer choice is, <u>option A. The universe is currently expanding and will continue to expand.</u>
