Answer:

106.905 amu is the mass of the other isotope

Explanation:

The atomic mass of an element is the sum of the masses of the isotopes multiplied by its abundance. The atomic mass of an element X with 2 isotopes is:

X = X-109*i + X-107*i

Where X is the atomic mass = 107.868 amu

X-109 = 108.905amu, i = 48.16% = 0.4816

X-107 = ?, i = 1-0.4816 = 0.5184

Replacing:

107.868amu = 108.905amu*0.4816 + X-107*0.5184

55.4194 = X-107*0.5184

106.905 = X-107

<h3>106.905 amu is the mass of the other isotope</h3>

The volume density of atoms for a bcc lattice is 5 x 1026 m-3. Assume that the atoms are hard spheres with each atom touching it
ollegr [7]

Explanation:

It is known that for a body centered cubic unit cell there are 2 atoms per unit cell.

This means that volume occupied by 2 atoms is equal to volume of the unit cell.

So, according to the volume density

        5 \times 10^{26} atoms = 1 [tex]m^{3}

        2 atoms = \frac{1 m^{3}}{5 \times 10^{26} atoms} \times 2 atoms

                     = 4 \times 10^{-27} m^{3}

Formula for volume of a cube is a^{3}. Therefore,

           Volume of the cube = 4 \times 10^{-27} m^{3}

As lattice constant (a) = (4 \times 10^{-27} m^{3})^{\frac{1}{3}}

                                   = 1.59 \times 10^{-9} m

Therefore, the value of lattice constant is 1.59 \times 10^{-9} m.

And, for bcc unit cell the value of radius is as follows.

                 r = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a

Hence, effective radius of the atom is calculated as follows.

                 r = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a

                   = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \times 1.59 \times 10^{-9} m

                   = 6.9 \times 10^{-10} m

Hence, the value of effective radius of the atom is 6.9 \times 10^{-10} m.

One success of Johann Döbereiner's law of triads was that it organized most of the known elements into three-element groups base
jenyasd209 [6]
That statement is true

it was easy to organize 'all' the elements in a group of threes because back then they only knew about 15 - 20 elements

hope this helps

Partial charges will exist on each atom when a bond exists between two atoms with different electronegativities. Since the atom
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

negative, positive, increase

Explanation:

From the given question,  

During the formation of bond, between two atoms with difference between their electronegativity-

  • The more electronegative atom, will pull the electrons towards itself , and hence acquires a partial negative charge,

And,

  • The less electronegative atom, will acquire a partial positive charge.
  • The more the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the more would be the magnitude of partial charge.
  • And, the less would be the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the lesser would be the magnitude of partial charge.

Answer:

a. Heterogeneous
b. Homogeneous
c. Homogeneous
d. Heterogeneous
e. Heterogeneous

Explanation:

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which you can see multiple different ingredients in, for example vegetable soup, tea with ice and lemon slices, or fruit salad.

A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which you can only see one thing, for example tea, seawater, or milk.
