A hypothetical element has an atomic weight of 48.68 amu. It consists of three isotopes having masses of 47.00 amu, 48.00 amu, a
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer : The percent abundance of the heaviest isotope is, 78 %

Explanation :

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i

As we are given that,

Average atomic mass = 48.68 amu

Mass of heaviest-weight isotope = 49.00 amu

Let the percentage abundance of heaviest-weight isotope = x %

Fractional abundance of heaviest-weight isotope = \frac{x}{100}

Mass of lightest-weight isotope = 47.00 amu

Percentage abundance of lightest-weight isotope = 10 %

Fractional abundance of lightest-weight isotope = \frac{10}{100}

Mass of middle-weight isotope = 48.00 amu

Percentage abundance of middle-weight isotope = [100 - (x + 10)] %  = (90 - x) %

Fractional abundance of middle-weight isotope = \frac{(90-x)}{100}

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:

48.68=[(47.0\times \frac{10}{100})+(48.0\times \frac{(90-x)}{100})+(49.0\times \frac{x}{100})]

x=78\%

Therefore, the percent abundance of the heaviest isotope is, 78 %

The alternative pathways of photosynthesis using the c4 or cam systems are said to be compromises. why?
frosja888 [35]
 It is because C4 compromises on water loss and CAM compromises on photorespiration. and Both minimize photorespiration but expend more ATP during carbon fixation.

A sample of Mo(NO3)6 has 2.22 x 10^22 nitrogen atom, how many oxygen atoms does the sample have?
goldfiish [28.3K]

There are 3.98 × 10^23 atoms of oxygen in the sample.

Given that;

1 mole of Mo(NO3)6 contains 6.02 × 10^23 atoms of Nitrogen

x moles of Mo(NO3)6 contains 2.22 x 10^22 atoms of nitrogen

x = 1 mole × 2.22 x 10^22 atoms/6.02 × 10^23 atoms

x = 0.0368 moles

The number of oxygen atoms in the sample is given by; 0.0368 × 6.02 × 10^23 × 18

Therefore, there are 3.98 × 10^23 atoms of oxygen in the sample.
