The average atomic mass of this new element X is 43.45

HOW TO CALCULATE AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS:

  • The average atomic mass of an element can be calculated by the following steps:

  1. multiplying the atomic mass of each isotope with its relative abundance
  2. Then sum the results for each isotope

According to this question; a new element X is found and in the sample:

  1. 70% is X-43
  2. 25% is X-44
  3. 5% is X-47

The average atomic mass of element X is calculated thus:

X-43: 70/100 × 43 = 30.1

X-44: 25/100 × 44 = 11

X-47: 5/100 × 47 = 2.35

Next, we sum the results as follows:

= 30.1 + 11 + 2.35

= 43.45

  • Therefore, the average atomic mass of this new element X is 43.45.

The reaction is proceeding at a rate of 0.0080 Ms-1 in 50.0 mL of solution in a system with unknown concentrations of A and B. W
Leokris [45]

Answer:

0.0010 mol·L⁻¹s⁻¹  

Explanation:

Assume the rate law is  

rate = k[A][B]²

If you are comparing two rates,

\dfrac{\text{rate}_{2}}{\text{rate}_{1}} = \dfrac{k_{2}\text{[A]}_2[\text{B]}_{2}^{2}}{k_{1}\text{[A]}_1[\text{B]}_{1}^{2}}= \left (\dfrac{\text{[A]}_{2}}{\text{[A]}_{1}}\right ) \left (\dfrac{\text{[B]}_{2}}{\text{[B]}_{1}}\right )^{2}

You are cutting each concentration in half, so

\dfrac{\text{[A]}_{2}}{\text{[A]}_{1}} = \dfrac{1}{2}\text{ and }\dfrac{\text{[B]}_{2}}{\text{[B]}_{1}}= \dfrac{1}{2}

Then,

\dfrac{\text{rate}_{2}}{\text{rate}_{1}} = \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right ) \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right )^{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}\times\dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1}{8}\\\\\text{rate}_{2} = \dfrac{1}{8}\times \text{rate}_{1}= \dfrac{1}{8}\times \text{0.0080 mol$\cdot$L$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$} = \textbf{0.0010 mol$\cdot$L$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$}\\\\\text{The new rate is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.0010 mol$\cdot$L$^\mathbf{{-1}}$s$^{\mathbf{-1}}$}}$}

How can we think differently about maintaining social wellness during this time of social distancing?
liberstina [14]

Answer: We can think differently about maintaining social wellness during this time of social distancing by (consider the following)

Explanation: If you are in a crowded space, try to keep 6 feet of space between yourself and others at all times, and wear a cloth face covering. Cloth face coverings are especially important in times when physical distancing is difficult.

Pay attention to any physical guides, such as tape markings on floors or signs on walls, directing attendees to remain at least 6 feet apart from each other in lines or at other times. Allow other people 6 feet of space when you pass by them in both indoor and outdoor settings.

How does gravity depend on the mass of two objects
AleksAgata [21]

Gravity increases as the mass of either object increases.

<h3>What is gravity?</h3>

Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its centre. The force of gravity keeps all of the planets in orbit around the sun.

Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.
