Answer is: silicon isotope with mass number 28 has highest relative abundance, this isotope is the most common of these three isotopes.
Ar₁(Si) = 28; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁸Si.
Ar₂(Si) =29; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁹Si.
Ar₃(Si) =30; the average atomic mass of isotope ³⁰Si.
Silicon (Si) is composed of three stable isotopes, ₂₈Si (92.23%), ₂₉Si (4.67%) and ₃₀Si (3.10%).
ω₁(Si) = 92.23%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁸Si.
ω₂(Si) = 4.67%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁹Si.
ω₃(Si) = 3.10%; mass percentage of isotope ³⁰Si.
Ar(Si) = 28.086 amu; average atomic mass of silicon.
Ar(Si) = Ar₁(Si) · ω₁(B) + Ar₂(Si) · ω₂(Si) + Ar₃(Si) · ω₃(Si).
28,086 = 28 · 0.9223 + 29 · 0.0467 + 30 · 0.031.
- For solving this problem, we have to take in account the degree of freedom of air molecules.
- As, molecules of air have five degrees of freedom (three translational and two rotational)
- For each molecule, the kinetic energy of each degree of freedom = 1/2 KT
- So, K.E of 1 molecule for 5 degrees of freedom = 5/2KT
So, for molecules of air K.E = 5/2 KT = 5/2 x 1 x 1.38 x 10⁻²³ x 308 = 1062.6 x 10⁻²³ J
1 mole of air contains 6.022 x 10²³ molecules
K.E. of 1 mole = 1062.6 x 10⁻²³ x 6.022 x 10²³ = 6400 J
