Michelle is trying to find the average atomic mass of a sample of an unknown

Chemistry
1 answer:
GREYUIT [131]2 years ago
3 0

The average atomic mass of her sample is 114.54 amu

Let the 1st isotope be A

Let the 2nd isotope be B

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Abundance of isotope A (A%) = 59.34%
  • Mass of isotope A = 113.6459 amu
  • Mass of isotope B = 115.8488 amu
  • Abundance of isotope B (B%) = 100 – 59.34 = 40.66%
  • Average atomic mass =?

The average atomic mass of the sample can be obtained as follow:

Average \: atomic \: mass \:  =  \frac{mass \: of \: A \times A\%}{100}  + \frac{mass \: of \: B \times B\%}{100}  \\  \\ Average \: atomic \: mass \:  =  \frac{113.6459\times 59.34}{100} + \frac{115.8488\times 40.66}{100} \\  \\ Average \: atomic \: mass \:  = 114.54 \: amu  \\  \\

Thus, the average atomic mass of the sample is 114.54 amu

Estimate the number of moles of water in all the Earth's oceans. Assume water covers 75% of the Earth to an average depth of 3 k
o-na [289]

Answer:

there are approximately n ≈ 10²² moles

Explanation:

Since the radius of the earth is approximately R=6378 km= 6.378*10⁶ m , then the surface S of the earth would be

S= 4*π*R²

since the water covers 75% of the Earth's surface , the surface covered by water Sw is

Sw=0.75*S

the volume for a surface Sw and a depth D= 3 km = 3000 m ( approximating the volume through a rectangular shape) is

V=Sw*D

the mass of water under a volume V , assuming a density ρ= 1000 kg/m³ is

m=ρ*V

the number of moles n of water ( molecular weight M= 18 g/mole = 1.8*10⁻² kg/mole ) for a mass m is

n = m/M

then

n = m/M = ρ*V/M = ρ*Sw*D/M = 0.75*ρ*S*D/M = 3/4*ρ*4*π*R² *D/M = 3*π*ρ*R² *D/M

n=3*π*ρ*R² *D/M

replacing values

n=3*π*ρ*R² *D/M = 3*π*1000 kg/m³*(6.378*10⁶ m)² *3000 m /(1.8*10⁻² kg/mole) = 3*π*6.378*3/1.8 * 10²⁰ = 100.18 * 10²⁰ ≈ 10²² moles

n ≈ 10²² moles

how do you know the state of a compound when writing out the equation. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP!!
tester [92]

Answer:

The state of matter of each compound or molecule is indicated in subscript next to the compound by an abbreviation in parentheses. For example, a compound in the gas state would be indicated by (g), solid (s), liquid (l), and aqueous (aq).

In Rutherford's Gold foil experiment, were the alpha particles directed to different areas of the gold foil or only the same spo
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In the Rutherford experiment, alpha particles were directed at the same spot on a thin gold foil.

As the alpha particles hit the foil, most of the alpha particles went through the foil. In Rutherford's interpretation, most of the particles went through because the atom consisted largely of empty space.

However, some of the alpha particles were deflected through large angles, in Rutherford's interpretation, the deflected alpha particles had hit the dense positive core of the atom which he called the nucleus.

This accounted for their scattering through large angles throughout the foil in all directions.
