An element has three naturally occuring isotopes: 90.48% is element-20 (mass = 19.992 amu), 0.27% is element-21 (mass - 20.994 amu), and the remainder is element-22 (mass = 21.991 amu). Calculate the average atomic mass of the element, rounded to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Average atomic mass  = 20.180 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Abundance of X-20 = 90.48%

Atomic mass of X-20 = 19.992 amu

Abundance of X-21 = 0.27%

Atomic mass of X-21 = 20.994 amu

Abundance of X-22 =  9.25%

Atomic mass of X-22 = 21.991 amu

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass)   / 100

Average atomic mass = ( 90.48×19.992)+(0.27×20.994)+(9.25+ 21.991 ) /100

Average atomic mass = 1808.88  + 5.668+203.42 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 2017.968 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 20.180 amu.

Think of ways that carbon atoms can enter our bodies. List as many possibilities as you can.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The element CARBON enters the body in two NATURAL ways.

First is through eating and drinking. Almost all food that we eat contain the element carbon. As the ingested food reaches the digestive system, food is broken down into smaller pieces up until the molecular level. Some molecules are taken into the circulation, while others are excreted down as feces.

Second is by breathing. Certain air molecules contain carbon. One major air molecule is CARBON DIOXIDE. Some molecules are inhaled, but usually, CARBON DIOXIDE should be excreted from the body.

Unnatural ways when CARBON could enter the body is by medical intervention, as in intravenous injections, surgery, etc

At what temperature, would the volume of a gas

from 700 to 800mm, the gas being at
initially
at 0°C​

Answers

Explanation:

P1V1 = nRT1

P2V2 = nRT2

Divide one by the other:

P1V1/P2V2 = nRT1/nRT2

From which:

P1V1/P2V2 = T1/T2

(Or P1V1 = P2V2 under isothermal conditions)

Inverting and isolating T2 (final temp)

(P2V2/P1V1)T1 = T2 (Temp in K).

Now P1/P2 = 1

V1/V2 = 1/2

T1 = 273 K, the initial temp.

Therefore, inserting these values into above:

2 x 273 K = T2 = 546 K, or 273 C.

Thus, increasing the temperature to 273 C from 0C doubles its volume, assuming ideal gas behaviour. This result could have been inferred from the fact that the the volume vs temperature line above the boiling temperature of the gas would theoretically have passed through the origin (0 K) which means that a doubling of temperature at any temperature above the bp of the gas, doubles the volume.

From the ideal gas equation:

V = nRT/P or at constant pressure:

V = kT where the constant k = nR/P. Therefore, theoretically, at 0 K the volume is zero. Of course, in practice that would not happen since a very small percentage of the volume would be taken up by the solidified gas.

A sixth grade teacher takes students on a field trip to the beach. One student finds several pebbles that have a rounded shape and are smooth to the touch. What process most likely shaped these pebbles?​

Answers

Answer:

C: The shape of the pebbles is a result of weathering and deposition

Explanation:

For the several pebbles to have a rounded shape and smooth to the touch, it will undergo weathering and deposition. This is because weathering involves breaking down of rocks and creating new sediments. This weathering could be either chemical weathering or physical weathering where Chemical weathering is the decomposition of rocks which are caused by chemical reactions and which result in formation of new compound while physical weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces. On the other hand, deposition occurs when the agents of erosion such as wind or water deposit sediments from one spot to another which in turn changes the shape of the land.

Thus, the shape of the pebbles are as a result weathering of the parent rocks and from deposition.

Answer:

B = A/DH – C

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained:

A = D • H(B + C)

Thus, we can obtain B in terms of D, H, A and C by doing the following:

A = D • H(B + C)

A = DH(B + C)

Divide both side by DH

A/DH = B + C

Subtract C from both side

A/DH – C = B + C – C

A/DH – C = B

B = A/DH – C

Find the mass of 22.7 liters of CH4 gas at 200.0 kPa and 50.0°C.

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 27.2 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = 22.7 L

Pressure of gas = 200.0 KPa (200/101=1.97 atm)

Temperature = 50.0°C

Mass of gas = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

50+273 = 323K

1.97 atm ×22.7 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 323K

44.72 atm.L = n × 26.52 atm.L/ mol

n =  44.72 atm.L / 26.52 atm.L/ mol

n = 1.7 mol

Mass of CH₄:

Mass =  number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.7 mol × 16 g/mol

Mass = 27.2 g

How much heat is needed to raise a 0.060 kg piece of granite from 82°C to 212 °C.

(The specific heat capacity of granite is 0.790

Answers

Answer:

There are required 6162J to raise the temperature of the piece of granite from 82°C to 212°C

Explanation:

By using the equation:

Q = m×C×ΔT

Where Q is heat in J, our incognite

m is mass of the substance, 0.0600kg = 60.0g

C is specific heat, 0.790J/g°C

And ΔT is change in temperature, 212°C - 82°C = 130°C

Replacing:

Q = m×C×ΔT

Q = 60.0g×0.790J/g°C×130°C

Q = 6162J

There are required 6162J to raise the temperature of the piece of granite from 82°C to 212°C

Suggest two reasons why the mass deposited was different from the expected value
VERY URGENT PLZ HELP!!!

Answers

Answer:

1) Dissolution of the copper anode

2) Time of the reaction

Explanation:

The figure shows the electrolysis of Copper Chloride using copper electrodes.

In aqueous solution, the ions present in the solution include:  H⁺, OH⁻. Cu²⁺ Cl⁻

The half equations for the reaction  are:

At rhe Anode (positive electrode) : 2Cl⁻(aq) - 2e = Cl₂(g)

At the Cathode (negative electrode) Cu²⁺ (aq) + 2e = Cu (s)

Hence copper ions are reduced at the cathode by gaining two electrons to form copper solid deposits. It is the mass of the deposited copper that the student measured over time.

Reasons why the actual mass is different  from the expected mass

1) Dissolution of the copper Anode: The electrodes used for this experiment are copper electrodes as both the positive and negative electrode.

Under the influence of an electric current, the copper anode will dissolve by gaining electrons and go into solution as copper II ions (Cu²⁺). thereby increasing the amount of copper ions in solution.

The aqueous copper ions from the anode and from the copper chloride (CuCl₂ (aq) electrolyte will migrate to the negative cathode, gain electrons, and get deposited as pure copper solid.  This increases the mass of copper solid deposited at the cathode.

2) Time: As the time of the reaction from zero to sixty (60) minutes under the influence of an electric current, more of the copper anode will dissolve, migrate to the cathode and get deposited as copper solid.

Hence as the time of the reaction increases, more of the copper ions will be deposited as copper solid thereby increasing the value of the actual mass of copper deposited.

Dissolving of copper and time are the two reasons for the different value to the expected value.

Dissolution of copper and less time are the two reasons for the different form the expected value because during the accumulation of copper on the anode some amount dissolved in the solution and not accumulated at the anode while on the other hand, time is also a factors which gives us different value as compared to expected value.

60 minutes are less time for the deposition of copper at the anode so if the time is extended then the value is same or near to the expected value so we can conclude that dissolving of copper and time are the two reasons for the different value to the expected value.

Answers

Answer:

-In order to become stable, which has 8 valence electrons (octet), nonmetal groups such as group 17, needs to gain 1 more electron to become 8/ octet.

When gaining that 1 electron, group 17 elements become negative ion or anions

-For metal groups such as group 1, they need to lose that 1 electron to become stable. When they lose that 1 electron, they become positive ion which is cation.
