<h3>The average atomic mass of Iodine : 126.86 amu</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

80% 127I, 17% 126I, and 3% 128I.

Required

The average atomic mass

Solution

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% + ... mass isotope n.%

Atomic mass of Iodine = 0.8 x 127 + 0.17 x 126 + 0.03 x 128

Atomic mass of Iodine = 101.6 + 21.42 + 3.84

Atomic mass of Iodine = 126.86 amu

In the octapeptide ITPGAALY which amino acid is the amino-terminal residue? Tyrosine Leucine Proline Isoleucine
oee [108]

Answer:

The correct option is: Isoleucine

Explanation:

Peptides are the biological molecules containing amino acids which are linked together by peptide bonds. A polypeptide is a peptide chain in which more than 20 amino acids are linked together by peptide bond.

All polypeptide chains have a N-terminal and a C-terminal.

The N-terminal of a polypeptide is also known as the amino terminal. The N-terminal has a free amine group, which is generally on the left hand side of the polypeptide chain.

Therefore, the N-terminal or the amino terminal of the given polypeptide is Isoleucine (I).

Determine the number of moles in 4.21 x 10^23 molecules of CaCl2
Paha777 [63]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.699 mole CaCl₂

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To get the number of moles we use the Avogadro's number.

Avogadro's number is 6.022 x 10^23.

But, 1 mole of a compound contains  6.022 x 10^23 molecules

In this case;

we are given 4.21 × 10^23 molecules of CaCl₂

Therefore, to get the number of moles

Moles = Number of molecules ÷ Avogadro's constant

          = 4.21 × 10^23 molecules ÷  6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mole

          = 0.699 mole CaCl₂

Hence, the number of moles is 0.699 mole of CaCl₂

A 25.0-g sample of ice at -6.5oC is removed from the freezer and allowed to warm until it melts. Given the data below, select al
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

B, D

Explanation:

The strategy here is to realize that the ice will be taken from -6.5 ºC to OºC where it will melt.

Lets call q₁ the heat required to bring the ice to 0ºc, q₂ the heat required to bring the phase change from solid to liquid.

q₁ is calculated from the expression

q₁ = s x m x ΔT where m is the mass, s the specific heat of ice ( 2.09 J/gºC ) and ΔT  the change in temperature.

q₂ the fusion enthalpy change   is calculated from the expression:

q₂ = C x ΔT

where C is the specific heat for the phase change , in this case named AH  given in kJ/mol.

We are given all the data needed to calculate q₁, q₂ and qtotal ( q₁ + q₂ )

q₁ = 25.0 g x ( 2.09 J/gºC) x ( 0 - ( -6.5 ºC ) )

q₁ = 339.6 J = 0.339 kJ

q₂ = (25 g/ 18 g/mol) x 6.02 kJ/mol = 1.39 x 6.02 kJ = 8.36 kJ

qtotal = 0.339 kJ + 8.36 kJ = 8.70 kJ

with these calculations, we can now proceed to answer the question:

(a) False AH is theheat capacity for the melting.

(b) True as we determined above

(c) False we only have one phase change, from solid (ice) to liquid

(d) True as calculated above

(e) False as determined in our calculations

The elements chlorine and iodine have similar chemical properties because they _____. Group of answer choices have the same numb
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Have the same number of electrons in their outer energy levels

Explanation:

Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electron(s) in their outermost shell.

Chlorine and Iodine have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electron in their outermost shell. This can be seen from their electronic configuration as shown below:

Cl (17) => 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁵

I (53) => [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s²5p⁵

From the above illustration:

Outer shell of Cl (3s²3p⁵) = 2 + 5 = 7 electrons

Outer shell of I (5s²5p⁵) = 2 + 5 = 7 electrons

Since they have the same number of valence electrons, therefore, they will have similar chemical properties.

Let's say we have 2 Zinc atoms and 2 Sulfur atoms on one side of the equation. According to the Law of Conversation and Mass, ho
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Two

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that in an isolated system the mass present is neither destroyed nor created by chemical changes or physical changes.

This tells us that the mass of reactants must be equal to the product mass.

If 1 atom of Zn react with one atoms of sulfur, the product will be 1 molecule of zinc sulfide according to the equation below

Zn(s) + S(s) ⇒ ZnS(s)

therefore two atoms each f zinc and sulfur will product two molecules of Zn sulfide
