There are two isotopes of an unknown element, X-19 and X-21. The abundance of X-19 is 14.55%. A weighted average uses the percen

tages of each isotope to scale their contribution to the total mass. Each isotope's contribution is the percentage (in decimal form) multiplied by the mass of the isotope. What is the contribution (in amu) to the weighted average from the X-19 isotope, which has a mass of 19.00 amu

Answer:

2.765amu is the contribution of the X-19 isotope to the weighted average

Explanation:

The average molar mass is defined as the sum of the molar mass of each isotope times its abundance. For the unknown element X that has 2 isotopes the weighted average is defined as:

X = Mass X-19 * Abundance X-19 + MassX-21 * Abundance X-21

The contribution of the X-19 isotope is its mass (19.00 amu) times its abundance (14.55% = 0.1455). That is:

19.00amu * 0.1455 =

2.765amu is the contribution of the X-19 isotope to the weighted average

Mr Singh is cooking using wo pans of oiling water. Both pans are made of steel, but one pan has a much thicker base than the oth
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When either pan is heated, energy is transferred via conduction. Conduction is the process by which heat is transferred through a material, the average position of the particles remaining the same.

When the pans are heated, the particles in each pan vibrate faster and transfer this energy rapidly to neighboring particles.

The pan with a thicker base has more particles in it than the pan with lighter weight base. Note that, The rate of heat transfer is inversely proportional to the thickness of the material in question. Hence, the thicker the base, the more the number of particles present and the longer the time it takes for the food to cook.

What are the various adverse effects of chemistry​
Kisachek [45]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Chemistry is the reaction between certain elements to </em><em>create a new compound</em><em> which may happen naturally but is mostly man made and hence has lot of good as well as </em><em>adverse effects.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The <em>product or compound</em> that we get and the energy or outcome we receive is the ultimate result that decides whether chemical reaction that has happened is good or bad.

There are reactions that may cause pain and suffering to living beings and  are also able to<em> Infuse damage and destruction</em> are are adverse nature. they can also change the course of nature hence are are <em>dangerous. </em>

As the pressure on the surface of a liquid decreases, the temperature at which the liquid will boil
ankoles [38]

Answer: option (1) decreases.


Explanation:


May be you have experienced that: when you go to the beach, where the atmposhpere pressure is greater than the atmosphere pressure in places that are at higher altitudes, the water takes longer to boil. That is because the boiling temperature is greater, and you need more total heat (more time) to permit the liquid to reach that temperature.


The reason why that happens is because substances boil when the vapor pressure (the pressure of the particles of vapor over the liquid) equals the atmosphere pressure. So, when the atmposhere pressure increases, the temperature at which the vapor pressure reaches the atmosphere pressure also increases, and when the atmosphere pressure decreases, the temperature at which the vapor pressure reaches the atmosphere pressure decreases.
