The average atomic mass of an element can be determined by multiplying the individual masses of the isotopes with their respective relative abundances, and adding them.
Average atomic mass of Br = 158 amu(0.2569) + 160 amu(0.4999) + 162 amu(0.2431)
Average atomic mass = 159.96 amu
As described in the problem, the relative abundance for Br-79 is 25.69%. This is because 2 atoms of Br is equal to 79*2 = 158 amu. Similarly, the relative abundance of Br-81 is 81*2 = 162, which is 24.31%.
Answer: HCl
Explanation:
calcium carbonate dissolves in HCl acid producing CO 2 gas. It will not dissolve in pure water. The Ksp for calcium carbonate in water is 3.4 x 10-9 moldm-3 which is very low. What takes place here is actually a chemical reaction:
CaCO 3 (s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl 2 (aq) + H 2CO 3(aq)
This reaction accounts for the solubility of the Calcium carbonate in HCl and not in pure water.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The reaction between alcohol and acidified potassium dichromate is a redox reaction. This reaction can be used to detect a drunken driver.
Alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids depending on the structure of the alcohol. Primary alcohols yield adehydes and carboxylic acids while secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones.
The colour of the acidified potassium dichromate turns from orange to green when exposed to alcohols from the breath of a drunken driver.
Answer:
The weigth of a 90kg man standing on the moon is <u><em>147.6 N (option C)</em></u>
Explanation:
Weight is called the action exerted by the force of gravity on the body.
The mass (amount of matter that a body contains) of an object will always be the same, regardless of where it is located. Instead, the weight of the object will vary according to the force of gravity acting on it.
The formula that allows you to calculate the weight of any body is:
W = m*g
where:
- W = weight measured in N.
- m = mass measured in kg.
- g = acceleration of gravity measured in m/s². The acceleration of gravity g is the same for all objects that fall due to gravitational attraction, whatever their size or composition. For example, as an approximate value on Earth, g = 9.8 m/s².
In this case, the mass m has a value of 90 kg and the gravity g has a value of 1.64 m/s², which is the value of the acceleration of gravity of the moon. Then:
W=90 kg* 1.64 m/s²
<u><em>W= 147.6 N</em></u>
Finally, <u><em>the weigth of a 90kg man standing on the moon is 147.6 N (option C)</em></u>
