Distilled water is neutral, because the H+ and OH- ions are balanced. Litmus is a natural acid-base indicator extracted from a type of lichen.

What type of substance reacts with limestone (CaCO3) and produces carbon dioxide gas?

Anestetic [448]

Acids react with calcium carbonate and more specifically carbonate to form carbon dioxide. An acid will give protons to the carbonate anion to produce carbonic acid which then decomposes into carbon dioxide and water. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

The two isotopes of chlorine are LaTeX: \begin{matrix}35\\17\end{matrix}Cl35 17 C l and LaTeX: \begin{matrix}37\\17\end{matrix}C

Answer: The percentage abundance of $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ and $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotopes are 77.5% and 22.5% respectively.

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$ .....(1)

Let the fractional abundance of $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope be 'x'. So, fractional abundance of $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope will be '1 - x'

For $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope = 35 amu

Fractional abundance of $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope = x

For $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope = 37 amu

Fractional abundance of $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope = 1 - x

Average atomic mass of chlorine = 35.45 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$35.45=[(35\times x)+(37\times (1-x))]\\\\x=0.775$

Percentage abundance of $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope = $0.775\times 100=77.5\%$

Percentage abundance of $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotope = $(1-0.775)=0.225\times 100=22.5\%$

Hence, the percentage abundance of $_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}$ and $_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}$ isotopes are 77.5% and 22.5% respectively.
