Answer:  106.905

Explanation:  If there are only 2 isotopes, and 1 of them is 48.16%, the second must, by default, be (100 - 48.16%) = 51.84%  The final, averaged, atomic mass is 107.868.  This is made up of each isotope's atomic mass times the percentage of that isotope in the total sample.  The weighted value of the known isotope (109) plus that of the unknown must come to the observed value of 107.868 amu.  (107.868 - 52.45 = 55.42).  Divide that by the % for that isotope (55.42/0.5184) = 106.90 amu for the second isotope.

<u>Atomic Mass</u>  <u>% of Sample</u> <u>Weighted Value</u>

    108.905         48.16%              52.45

          X               51.84%              <u>55.42</u>

                                                     107.87

      X = (55.42/0.5184) = 106.90 amu

What is a cholesterol level of 1.85 g/l in the standard units of mg/dl?
sp2606 [1]

Cholesterol is  a sterol, it is a type of lipid molecule, and is biosynthesized by all animal cells. Total cholesterol level lesser than 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) is considered desirable for an adult. The standard unit used for any substance is gram per liter. However sometimes the concentration can also be expressed in terms of mg per deciliter. In this context 1 gram per liter is equal to 100 milligram per deciliter.

Thus 1.85 gram per liter is equal to 185 mg per deciliter. So 1.85 g/L is equivalent to 185mg per deciliter.

Which of the following regarding atmospheric pressure is true?
butalik [34]

Answer:

1- Option (A)

2- Option (A)

Explanation:

The pressure is often defined as the force per unit area. In the atmosphere, the pressure is maximum at the troposphere and is tightly packed near the ground surface. The troposphere is the region where the temperature decreases with the increasing height. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is nearly 1013.2 millibar (mb). The difference in the pressure in this layer causes the wind that is responsible for the occurrence of different types of weather patterns.

The earth and the sun maintains the shortest distance at its Perihelion position, which takes place in the month of January during the winter season in the northern hemisphere. And on the other hand, the earth is far away from the sun at its Aphelion position that takes place in the month of July.

Hence, the correct answers are given above.

The temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol. Without knowing more about the chemistry of alcohol, w
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Fewer hydrogen bonds form between alcohol molecules. As a result, less heat is needed for alcohol molecules to break away from solution and enter the air.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is a kind of intermolecular interaction that occurs when hydrogen is bonded to a highly electronegative atom.

Both water and alcohols exhibit hydrogen bonding. However, alcohols exhibit fewer hydrogen bonds than water.

As a result of this, the temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol because hydrogen bonds hold water molecules more closely than alcohol molecules are held.
