Answer:

The abundance of 35/17 Cl is 75% and 25% of 37/17Cl

Explanation:

The molar mass of an atom is defined as the sum of the masses of each isotope times its abundance, that is:

35.5amu = 35amu*X + 37amu*Y <em>(1)</em>

<em>Where X is the abundance of the 35/17Cl and Y the abundance of 37/17 Cl</em>

<em />

As there are just these 2 isotopes and the abundances of both isotopes = 1:

X + Y = 1 <em>(2)</em>

<em></em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

35.5 = 35X + 37(1-X)

35.5 = 35X + 37 - 37X

-1.5 = -2X

X = 0.75 = 75%

And Y = 100-75% = 25%

<h3>The abundance of 35/17 Cl is 75% and 25% of 37/17Cl</h3>

GIVING 20 POINTS!! Apply Concepts Two chemists each plan an investigation in which they will combine hydrogen gas with chlorine
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Yes, the investigations will reach similar conclusions about the reactivity of H2 and Cl2

Explanation:

1. The law of multiple proportions says that when elements form compounds, the proportions of the elements in those chemical compounds can be expressed in small whole number ratios.  This means that regardless of whether 1000 times more of the products are used, the reactivity of the products is established by the chemical reaction

2. The law of multiple proportions is an extension of the law of definite composition, which states that compounds will consist of defined ratios of elements.

3. A reaction with more reactants will need more care because more products are produced, which can be toxic

4. H2 and Cl2 reactivity does not depend on the quantities but the chemical properties of each compound
