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 %

Potassium chloride dissolved in pure water is an

postnew [5]

Answer:

A) An ionic compound dissolved in a polar solvent

Explanation:

Potassium Chloride's chemical formula is KCl. Most ionic compounds are formed between a nonmetal and a metal. In this case, potassium is acting as the metal and chloride is the nonmetal. Water is a polar solvent due to the electronegativity of the oxygen in the molecule creating a partial negative pole, leaving the hydrogen atoms partially positive. Hence, A is your best answer.

If I helped, a brainliest would be greatly appreciated!
