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

The process of ____ occurs when magma, lava, or a solute in a solution becomes a solid and the internal components will arrange
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

D. Crystallization

Explanation:

Let's clarify the irrelevant terms first.

  1. unification: This term has nothing to do with chemistry at all
  2. lithification: When the problem mentions magma and lava, you might think that this term is related to the process here. However, 'lithification' <em>do </em>have a precise meaning in geology. It refers to the process where sediments collapses into one single rock under pressure, which has nothing to do with the process mentioned here.

Now, for 2 terms that might confuse you: 'solidification' and 'crystallization' these also has precise scientific definition

Solidification is defined the process where substances in <em>liquid</em> phase changes its phase to <em>solid</em>. On first glance, this answer might seems correct, and yes, it is correct for this question. But not the <em>most</em> correct.

The keyword here is  

 'the internal components will arrange its self in an  organized pattern.'

Crystallization is a special case of Solidification where the atoms or molecules of liquid solidify by spontaneously arrange themselves in periodic, ordered, and organized pattern. It might or might not happen during solidification depending on cooling rate, viscosity of liquid, and other factors.

So, Crystallization is the most correct answer here.

For which structure(s) does the electron-bearing carbon atom have a formal charge of zero
AlladinOne [14]

Formal charge can be calculated from the following formula

Formal charge = valency of central atom - (number of lone pair of electrons + number of covalent bonds)

a) for methylene:

Formal charge = 4 -( 2+ 2) = 0

b) For methyl free radical

Formal charge = 4- (3 +1) = 0

Answer this ASAP please!! Question: How many magnesium atoms does magnesium oxide need? (Science) (ONLY ANSWER IF YOU KNOW WHAT
aliina [53]

Answer:

40.3 for the unit that represents the minimum amount of magnesium oxide I beilieve.

Explanation:

Magnesium atoms are heavier than oxygen atoms, so we expect more than 50% of magnesium in the weight composition. Taking just one atom of Mg and one atom of O you will get a mass of 16.0 + 24.3 = 40.3.

Hope this helps! Please tell me if you have any questions :))
