A fictional element has two isotopes and an atomic mass of 87.08 amu. if the first isotope is 86 amu and the second isotope has

a mass of 90 amu. which isotope has the greatest natural abundance?

The atomic mass of a certain element is summation of the product of the decimal equivalent of the percentage abundance and the given atomic mass of each of the isotope. If we let x be the percentage abundance of the 86 amu-isotope then, the second one is 1-x such that,
                      x(86) + (1 - x)(90) = 87.08
The value of x from the equation is 0.73. This value is already greater than 0.5. Thus, the isotope with greatest abundance is that which is 86 amu.

A student has 100. mL of 0.400 M CuSO4 (aq) and is asked to make 100. mL of 0.150 M CuSO4 (aq) for a spectrophotometry experimen
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

We have to take 37.5 mL of a 0.400 M solution

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Stock volume = 100 mL  = 0.100L

Stock concentration 0.400 M

Volume of solution he wants to make = 100 mL = 0.100L

Concentration of solution he wants to make = 0.150 M

Step 2: Calculate the volume of 0.400 M CuSO4 needed

C1*V1 = C2*V2

⇒with C1 = the stock concentration = 0.400M

⇒with V1 = the volume of the stock = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with C2 = the concentration of the solution he wants to make = 0.150 M

⇒with V2 = the volume of the solution made = 0.100 L

0.400 M * V1 = 0.150M * 0.100L

V1 = (0.150M*0.100L) / 0.400 M

V1 = 0.0375 L = 37.5 mL

We have to take 37.5 mL of a 0.400 M solution

How many moles of lead, Pb, are in 1.50 x 1012 atoms of lead?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

2.49*10⁻¹² mol

Explanation:

Use Avogadro's Number for this equation (6.022*10²³).  Divide Avogrado's by the number of atoms you have to find moles.  You are answer should be 2.49*10⁻¹² mol.

A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.) a. an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction your eye, b. c
DENIUS [597]

Correct Question:

A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.)

- a piece of french fry contaminating the reaction mixture

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

-in this experiment, nitrate ion

- your eye, carefully watching the progress of the reaction

Answer:

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

Explanation:

A spectator ion is an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation. A spectator ion is one that exists in the same form on both the reactant and product sides of a chemical reaction.

Spectator ions are ions that are present in a solution but don't take part in the reaction. When reactants dissociate into ions, some of the ions may combine to form a new compound. The other ions don't take part in this chemical reaction and are therefore called spectator ions.

The correct option is therefore the option;

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

To begin with Snape thinks we should review an ideal gas problem. What is the pressure exerted by 0.703 mol O2 in a 11.0 L conta
Soloha48 [4]

This can be solved using ideal gas equation:

ideal gas equation,

P\times V=n\times R\times T

Here,

P denotes pressure

V denotes volume

n denotes number of moles of gas

R denotes gas constant

T denotes temperature

The values given here are as follows;

T=314 K

R=0.0821 atm L mol ⁻¹

V=11.0 L

Number of moles of gas, n= 0.703 mol

Putting all the values in the above equation,

P=\frac{ 0.703\times 0.0821\times 314}{11.0 }

P=1.64 atm

So the pressure will be 1.64 atm.
