The element antimony has two stable isotopes, antimony-121 with a mass of 120.90 amu and antimony-123 with a mass of 122.90 amu.

From the atomic weight of Sb = 121.76 one can conclude that: ________
antimony-123 has the highest percent natural abundance
most antimony atoms have a mass of 121.76 amu
antimony-121 has the highest percent natural abundance
both isotopes have the same percent natural abundance

Answer:

antimony-121 has the highest percent natural abundance

Explanation:

percent natural abundance;

121.76 = 120.90 x + 122.90 (1 - x)

121.76 = 120.90 x + 122.90 - 122.90x

121.76 = -2x + 122.90

121.76 - 122.90 = -2x

x= 121.76 - 122.90/ -2

x= 0.57

Where x and 1 - x refers to the relative abundance of each of the isotopes

Percent natural abundance of antimony-121 = 57 %

Percent natural abundance of antimony-123 = (1 - 0.57) = 43%

Let us remember that isotopy refers to a phenomenon in which atoms of the same element have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. This results from differences in the number of neutrons in atoms of the same element.

We can clearly see that antimony-121 has the highest percent natural abundance.

Answer:

It helps the body remove heat through sweating.

Explanation:

When the weather is hot, the body tries to keep cool by sweating. The high specific heat capacity means that the body doesn't have to lose much water to stay cool.

The high specific heat capacity of water doesn’t heat the body, but it slows down the rate of heat loss when the weather is cool.

B is wrong. The body uses glucose, not water, as an energy source.

C is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water is not connected with the body's ability to store it.

D is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water doesn't heat the body, but it slows the rate at which it cools.

What is the pressure, in atmospheres, of a 0.108-mol sample of helium gas at a temperature of 20.0°C if its volume is 0.505 L?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

P = 5.14ATM

Explanation:

Number of moles = 0.108moles

Temperature (T) = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 = 293.15K

Volume V = 0.505L.

Pressure (P) = ?

R = 0.082J/mol.K

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P = nRT / V

P = (0.108 * 0.082 * 293.15) / 0.505

P = 2.596 / 0.505

P = 5.14ATM

The pressure of the gas is 5.14ATM

A large piece of jewelry has a mass of 132.6 g. a graduated cylinder initially contains 48.6 ml water. when the jewelry is subme
Simora [160]

Answer:- Density is 10.5 grams per mL and the substance is Silver(Ag).

Solution:-  Mass of jewelry is given as 132.6 g. Initial volume of water in the graduated cylinder is 48.6 mL and the volume becomes 61.2 mL when this jewelry is submerged in the cylinder.

So, the volume of the jewelry = 61.2 mL - 48.6mL = 12.6 mL

We know that, density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Let's plug in the values in the above formula to calculate the density:

density=\frac{132.6g}{12.6mL}

density=10.5\frac{g}{mL}

So, the density of the jewelry is 10.5\frac{g}{mL} .

The substance from which the jewelry is made could easily be identified by comparing the calculated density with the density values given for different substances in the density table.

Looking at the density table, 10.5 grams per mL is the density for silver. So, the jewelry is made up from Silver.

Oxygen has 8 plus-charged protons. The number of minus-charged electrons is
DiKsa [7]

A single oxygen has atomic number 8 that means the nuclei of all oxygen atoms have eight protons. The number of minus-charged electron is two but the number of electrons is 10. <span>To gain a minus two-charge ion, it must have two more negative electrons than positive charged protons. With this, the ion has 10 electrons, which give it a -2 net charge. </span>
