Only two stable isotopes of chlorine exist. 35Cl has a mass of 34.96885 amu and 37Cl has a mass of 36.9659 amu. Given that the a

tomic mass of chlorine is 35.453, calculate the isotopic abundance of 37Cl. (Enter your answer as a decimal number between zero and one.)

Answer: The isotopic abundance of Cl- 37 is 0.2424.

Explanation:

Mass of isotope - 35 = 34.96885 amu

% abundance of isotope -35= x% = \frac{x}{100}

Mass of isotope - 37 = 36.9659 amu.

% abundance of isotope-37 = (100-x)% = \frac{100-x}{100}

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

35.453=\sum[(34.96885 \times \frac{x}{100})+(36.9659 \times \frac{100-x}{100}]]

x=75.76\%

(100-75.76)=24.24\%=0.2424

Therefore,  the isotopic abundance of Cl- 37 is 0.2424.

This exercise uses the radioactive decay model.
Anna11 [10]
For radioactive decay, we can relate current amount, initial amount, decay constant and time using:
N = No x exp(-λt)

Half-life = ln(2)/λ
λ = ln(2) / 5730
N/No = 80% = 0.8
0.8 = exp( -ln(2)/5730 x t)
t = 1844 years

Compare molecular & covalent network crystal solid?​
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Molecular solids and covalent network solids are two types of solid compounds. The key difference between molecular solid and covalent network solid is that <em>molecular solid forms due to the action of Van der Waal forces </em>where as <em>covalent network solid forms due to the action of covalent chemical bonds.</em>
