Answer:

Average atomic mass  = 3.9 amu

Explanation:

Given data:

Percent abundance of He-2 = 0.420%

Percent abundance of He-3 = 2.75%

Percent abundance of He-4 = 96.83%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) + (abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass = (0.420×2)+(2.75×3) +(96.83×4)/100

Average atomic mass =  0.84 + 8.25 +387.32 / 100

Average atomic mass = 396.41 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 3.9 amu.

Examine the nuclear reaction: 1 1 H+ 1 0 n -> 2 1 H.

1) Conversion of an isotope one chemical element or an isotope into another chemical element is called as nuclear transmutation.
<span>
2) In a nuclear transmutation reactions</span> can be achieved either due to radioactive decay or  due to nuclear reactions. 

3) In this technique, it is possible to convert a stable element into radioactive atom by bombarding in with high speed particles. The initial stable nuclei is referred as parent nuclei, the fast moving particle is referred as projectile while new element which is formed is called as daughter element.

4) In the present reaction:

1 1H is a parent nuclei which is bombarded with the fast moving projectile
(1 0 n) to generate a new daughter nuclei (2 1H). </span>

A container holds 6.4 moles of gas. Hydrogen gas makes up 25% of the total moles in the container. If the total pressure is 1.24
Degger [83]
  The   partial  pressure of hydrogen is 0.31  atm

calculation

find the number of  hydrogen   moles the container, that is

25/100  x 6.4  =1.6 moles of hydrogen

find the  partial pressure for hydrogen  in 1.6 moles

that is   6.4  moles=  1.24 atm
            1.6  moles= ?

by  cross  multiplication

1.6moles  x1.24  atm/ 6.4 moles=  0.31 atm
