Answer:

The relative atomic mass of X is 183.4

Explanation:

The relative atomic mass of an element is the weighted average of the masses of the isotopes using the carbon-12 atom has a mass of exactly 12 units as as a standard.

The relative sizes of the peaks gives a direct measure of the relative abundances of the isotopes. The tallest peak is often given an arbitrary height of 100 and is known as the base peak.

To calculate the relative atomic mass of the element X which has 3 stable isotopes with the relative peak intensities as given below:

79.52 for 180.0 u, 100.0 for 184.0 u, and 82.98 for 186.0 u, the sum of the products of the relative peak intensity of each isotope and their isotopic mass is divided by the sum of the peak intensities.

Relative atomic mass of X = (79.52 × 180) + (100 × 184.0) + (82.98 × 186)/(79.52 + 100 + 82.98)

Relative atomic mass of X = (14313.6 + 18400 + 15434.28)/(262.5)

Relative atomic mass of X = 48147.88/262.5 = 183.4

Therefore, the relative atomic mass of X is 183.4

When a 5.00-g metal piece, A, was immersed in 38.0 mL of water, the water level rose to 50.0 mL. Similarly, when a 5.00-g metal
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A is denser than B as it's volume for the same mass is smaller.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we first need to take into account that the density of each metal A and B is computed by dividing the mass over the volume of each metal which is actually computed by substracting the volume of water from the volume of the water and the solid:

V_A=50.0mL-38.0mL=12.0mL\\\\V_B=60.0mL-38.0mL=22.0mL

Next, we compute the densities as shown below:

\rho_A=\frac{m_A}{V_A}=\frac{5.00g}{12.0mL}=0.42g/mL\\  \\\rho_B=\frac{m_B}{V_B}=\frac{5.00g}{22.0mL}=0.23g/mL

In such a way, A is denser is B as it's volume for the same mass is smaller.

Best regards.

Which property determine am atoms ability to attract electrons shared in a chemical bond?
brilliants [131]
Hello there!

Electronegativity is what determine's an atoms ability to attract electrons shared in a chemical bond.Ionization, atomic radius, and also <span> ionic radius both would not determine this as they wouldn't have any similar bond that would attract.
</span><span>
Your correct answer would be (option c)

</span><span>A. ionization 

B. atomic radius

C. electronegativity

D. ionic radius

I hope this helps you!</span>

I really have no idea what to do here sorry. Help please.

1. An ion is a charged atom. A molecule is a neutrally-charged combination of atoms.

2. A molecule is a combination of atoms. It can consist of atoms from one or more elements. For example, an oxygen molecule comprises two oxygen atoms. A compound is a substance made up of a combination of atoms of different elements. For example, water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen.

3. An electron dot diagram is a simple way of representing the bond and electronic structure of molecules. A formula is a written representation of the types and numbers of atoms in a molecule.

4. As above...a formula denotes which atoms are in a molecule and how many. For example, H2SO4 tells us there are two hydrogen atoms, one sulfur atom and four oxygen atoms in each molecule of sulfuric acid.

5. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond that stems from electrostatic attraction between ions with opposite charges. A covalent bond is another type of chemical bond that involves sharing of electrons between atoms in order to achieve a stable electronic structure for the molecule as a whole.

A balloon contains 0.15 moles of co2 gas. how many molecules of co2 are in the balloon?
Sauron [17]
1- One mole is = 6.02 x 10^23 of anything, So one mole of atoms is 6.02x10^23.

2- when the balloon contains 0.15 moles of Co2 gas so:

the no.of molecules of Co2 = 0.15 x 6.02x 10^23

                                              = 9.0 x 10^22
