Answer:
See solution.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to set up the formula for the calculation of the by-mass percentage of the metal:
Thus, we solve for the molar mass of the metal to obtain:
For the subsequent problems, we proceed as follows:
a.
b.
c.

Answer:
Prompt Neutrons
Explanation:
Principle. Using uranium-235 as an example, this nucleus absorbs thermal neutrons, and the immediate mass products of a fission event are two large fission fragments, which are remnants of the formed uranium-236 nucleus. These fragments emit two or three free neutrons (2.5 on average), called prompt neutrons.
When Newlands tried to create a periodic table, his tried to conform to the "Rule of Octaves" he had discovered. He had the right idea, in that if you arrange the elements by atomic weight there would be similarities every 7 elements (not 8 because noble gases hadn't been discovered yet) but he tried to push this rule so much that he would put multiple elements in the same box to try to keep the rule. Mendeleev, however, left gaps in this table for undiscovered elements, which paved the way for our modern periodic table.
