Answer:

mass number

Explanation:

3 0

Answer:

This approximation of mass can be used to easily calculate how many neutrons an element has by simply subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. Protons and neutrons both weigh about one atomic mass unit or amu. Isotopes of the same element will have the same atomic number but different mass numbers.

Please Help!
Whitepunk [10]

We can use two equations for this problem.<span>

t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ
Where t1/2 is the half-life of the element and λ is decay constant.

20 days = 0.693 / λ 
λ   = 0.693 / 20 days        (1) 

Nt = Nο eΛ(-λt)                (2)

Where Nt is atoms at t time, No is the initial amount of substance, λ is decay constant and t is the time taken.
t = 40 days</span>

<span>No = 200 g

From (1) and (2),
Nt =  200 g eΛ(-(0.693 / 20 days) 40 days)
<span>Nt = 50.01 g</span></span><span>

</span>Hence, 50.01 grams of isotope will remain after 40 days.

Calculate to three significant digits the density of chlorine pentafluoride gas at exactly and exactly . You can assume chlorine
slega [8]

Answer:

Density is 6.16g/L

Explanation:

<em>... at exactly -15°C and exactly 1atm...</em>

<em />

Using general gas law:

PV = nRT

We can find density (Ratio of mass and volume) in an ideal gas as follows:

P/RT = n/V

<em>To convert moles to grams we need to multiply the moles with Molar Weight, MW:</em>

n*MW = m

n = m/MW

P/RT = m/V*MW

P*MW/RT = m/V

<em>Where P is pressure: 1atm;</em>

<em>MW of chlorine pentafluoride: 130.445g/mol</em>

<em>R is gas constant: 0.082atmL/molK</em>

<em>And T is absolute temperature: -15°C+273.15 = 258.15K</em>

<em />

Replacing:

P*MW/RT = m/V

1atm*130.445g/mol / 0.082atmL/molK*258.15K = m/V

6.16g/L = m/V

<h3>Density of the gas is 6.16g/L</h3>
