Answer:

The atomic mass of second isotope is 7.016

Explanation:

Given data:

Average Atomic mass of lithium = 6.941 amu

Atomic mass of first isotope = 6.015 amu

Relative abundance of first isotope = 7.49%

Abundance of second isotope = ?

Atomic mass of other isotope = ?

Solution:

Total abundance = 100%

100 - 7.49 = 92.51%

percentage abundance of second isotope = 92.51%

Now we will calculate the mass if second isotope.

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

6.941 = (6.015×7.49)+(x×92.51) /100

6.941 = 45.05235 + (x92.51) / 100

6.941×100 = 45.05235 + (x92.51)

694.1 - 45.05235 = (x92.51)

649.04765 = x 92.51

x = 485.583 /92.51

x = 7.016

The atomic mass of second isotope is 7.016

A saturated solution of potassium iodide contains, in each 100 mL, 100 g of potassium iodide. The solubility of potassium iodide

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Specific gravity of the saturated solution is 2

Explanation:

The specific gravity is defined as the ratio between density of a solution (In this case, saturated solution of potassium iodide, KI) and the density of water. Assuming density of water is 1:

Specific gravity = Density

The density is the ratio between the mass of the solution and its volume.

In 100mL of water, the mass of KI that can be dissolved is:

100mL * (1g KI / 0.7mL) = 143g of KI

That means all the 100g of KI are dissolved (Mass solute)

As the volume of water is 100mL, the mass is 100g (Mass solvent)

The mass of the solution is 100g + 100g = 200g

In a volume of 100mL, the density of the solution is:

200g / 100mL = 2g/mL.

The specific gravity has no units, that means specific gravity of the saturated solution is 2

According to Newton's Third Law, what is the equal and opposite force to the downward force of gravity pulling on a man standing

KIM [24]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Newton's third law states that when one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

In short we can say that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

For example, when we hit a wooden table hardly with our hands then we are applying a force on the table and on the other hand table is applying a force in the opposite direction on our hand due to which we get hurt.

Therefore, when force of gravity pulls the man in downward direction then man pulling upward on the earth is applying a force in opposite direction of gravitational pull.

If A is slowly added to a solution containing 0.0500 M of B and 0.0500 M of C, which solid will precipitate first? The solubilit

OleMash [197]

Answer:

AC₄ will precipitate out first.

Explanation:

A solid will precipitate out if the ionic product of the solution exceeds the solubility product.

Let us check the ionic product

a) A₂B₃

Ionic product = [A]²[B]³

[A] = say "s"

[B] = 0.05 , [B]³ = (0.05)³ = 0.000125

2.3 X 10⁻⁸ = [A]²(0.000125)

[A] = 0.0136

b) AC₄

Ionic product = [A] [C]⁴

[A] = "s"

[A][0.05]⁴ = 4.10 X 10⁻⁸

[A]=0.00656 M

So for ionic product to exceed solubility product, we need less concentration of A in case of AC₄.

A food product is being frozen in a system capable of removing 6000 kJ of thermal energy. The product has a specifi c heat of 4

lapo4ka [179]

Answer : The exit temperature of the product is, $-35.2^oC$

Explanation :

Total heat = Heat lost by liquid + Latent heat of fusion + Heat lost by frozen

$Q=m\times c_1\times (T_2-T_1)+m\times L_f+m\times c_2\times (T_4-T_3)$

where,

Q = Total heat = 6000 kJ

m = mass of product = 15 kg

$c_1$ = specific heat of liquid = $4kJ/kg^oC$

$L_f$ = latent heat of fusion = $275kJ/kg$

$c_2$ = specific heat of frozen = $2.5kJ/kg^oC$

$T_1$ = initial temperature of liquid = $2^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature of liquid = $10^oC$

$T_3$ = initial temperature of frozen = ?

$T_4$ = final temperature of frozen = $2^oC$

Now put all the given value in the above expression, we get:

$6000kJ=[15kg\times 4kJ/kg^oC\times (10-2)^oC]+[15kg\times 275kJ/kg]+[15kg\times 2.5kJ/kg^oC\times (2-T_3)^oC]$

$T_3=-35.2^oC$

Thus, the exit temperature of the product is, $-35.2^oC$

The unsaturated hydrocarbon butadiene (C4H6) dimerizes to 4-vinylcyclohexene (C8H12). When data collected in studies of the kine

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The dimerization of butadiene to 4-vinylcyclohexene folows second order kinetics and its rate law will be given by :

$R=k[C_4H_6]^2$

Explanation:

$2C_4H_6\rightarrow C_8H_{12}$

The rate of the reaction ;

$R=k[C_4H_6]^x$

As given in the question , that graph of time verses $\frac{1}{[C_4H_6]}$ was linear but plots of $[C_4H_6]$ or $\ln[C_4H_6]$ was curved.

Generally:

Graph of time verses $[concentration]$ for zero order reaction is linear with negative slope.

Graph of time verses $\ln [concentration]$ for secon order reaction is linear with negative slope.

Graph of time verses $\frac{1}{[concentration]}$ for secon order reaction is linear with positive slope.

So, the dimerization of butadiene to 4-vinylcyclohexene folows second order kinetics and its rate law will be given by :

$R=k[C_4H_6]^2$
