Answer: The average atomic mass of the element = 88.242amu

Explanation:

The abundance of the first isotope is =35.5%

 Atomic mass of first isotope = 68.9257

The average atomic mass of the first isotope =86.95amu X 35.5%  =86.95amu X 0.355 =30.8725 amu

The abundance of the second isotope =64.5%

Atomic mass of the second isotope =88.95amu

The average atomic mass of second isotope =88.95amu x 64.5% = 88.95amu x 0.645= 57.37275 amu

Now the average atomic mass =30.8725 +57.37275 = 88.242amu

OR using the formulae

Average atomic mass = [mass of isotope× its abundance] + [mass of isotope× its abundance] +...[ ] / 100

{(86.95amu X 35.5 )+(88.95amu x 64.5)}/100

8,824/100

=88.24amu

Explanation:

  1. area of rectangle=l×b
  • 15=5×b
  • b=3cm

2.area of rectangle=l×b

  • 28=l×4
  • l=7cm

3. perimeter of square=4×L

  • 24=4×L
  • L=6cm

4. perimeter of rectangle=2(L+b)

  • 14=2(4+b)
  • 14=8+2b
  • 2b=6
  • b=3cm

hope it helps.

When the fish-tank water has a pH of 8.0, the hydronium ion concentration is 1.0 × 10-8 mole per liter. What is the hydronium io
Oduvanchick [21]
You must know and use the formula for pH.


pH = - log [H3O+], where [H3O+] is the molar concentration of hydronium ion.


So, when pH is 8.0 => 8.0 = - log [H3O+] and you can use antilogarithm (the inverse function of logarithm) to find [H3O+], in this way:


[H3O+] = 10^-8 = 1 * 10 ^-8 M


When, pH = 7.0 =>

7.0 = - log [H3O+] => [H3O+] = 1 * 10^ -7 M


Answer: 1*10^-7 mole / liter

Please help to me solve these ! :)

I. The solubility of NaCl at 25 degrees C would be between the solubilities at 20 and 30 degrees C. A reasonable answer would be 36 grams/100 g water
ii. From the table, it’s clear that the salts are more soluble at higher temperatures, indicating that an increase in temperature increases solubility.
iii. At 50 degrees C, a saturated ammonium chloride solution will have 50.6 grams of salt per 100 g water. At 20 degrees C, the solution can hold only 37.3 grams of salt per 100 g water. Thus, 13.3 grams of salt will precipitate per 100 grams of water.

When a substance is in the liquid state, how are the particles of that substance<br> behaving
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

In liquids, particles are quite close together and move with random motion throughout the container. Particles move rapidly in all directions but collide with each other more frequently than in gases due to shorter distances between particles. With an increase in temperature, the particles move faster as they gain kinetic energy, resulting in increased collision rates and an increased rate of diffusion.
