Answer:

177.277amu

Explanation:

the total occuring isotopes for Hafnium is =6.

First isotope had an atomic weight of 173.940amu

Second isotope =175.941amu

Third isotope =176.943amu

Fourth isotope=177.944amu

Fifth isotope. =178.946amu

sixth isotope .179.947amu

<em>Avera</em><em>ge</em><em> </em><em>ato</em><em>mic</em><em> </em><em>wei</em><em>ght</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Haf</em><em>nium</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>sum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>all</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>atomi</em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>weights</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>iso</em><em>topes</em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>Tota</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>occu</em><em>ring</em><em> </em><em>isotopes</em>

Thus, 173.940amu+175.941amu+176.943amu+177.944amu+178.946amu+179.947amu.= 1063.661amu

Average atomic weight= 1063.661amu /6 = 177.2768333amu

= 177.277amu to 3 decimal places.

A chemical reaction is done in the setup shown , resulting in a change of mass. What will happen if the same reaction is done in
irina1246 [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The mass of the system will remain the same if there is no conversion of mass to energy in the reaction.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • If the system is closed, then according to the law of mass conservation the mass of the reaction system will remain the same.
  • <u><em>Law of conservation of the mass: In simple words, it is described as the mass of a closed system can never be changed, it may transfer from one form to another or change into energy.</em></u>
  • But if the reaction involves energy transfer like heat or light production, in this case, the mass can be changed.

Cyclohexane has a freezing point of 6.50 ∘C and a Kf of 20.0 ∘C/m. What is the freezing point of a solution made by dissolving 0
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The freezing point will be 2.9^{0}C

Explanation:

The depression in freezing point is a colligative property.

It is related to molality as:

Depressioninfreezing point=K_{f}Xmolality

Where

Kf= 20\frac{^{0}C}{m}

the molality is calculated as:

molality=\frac{moles_{solute}}{mass_{solvent}}

moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}=\frac{0.694}{154}=0.0045mol

massofcyclohexane=25g=0.025Kg

molarity=\frac{0.0045}{0.025}=0.18m

Depression in freezing point = 20X0.18=3.6^{0}C

The new freezing point = 6.5^{0}C-3.6^{0}C=2.9^{0}C

The electron in a ground-state H atom absorbs a photon of wavelength 97.20 nm. To what energy level does it move?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

E = h v = 6.626 x 10^{-34} x 97.20 x 10^{-9} = 6.44 x 10^{-41} J = 4.01 x 10^{-22} eV

n = Energy Level = -E^{0} / E = -13.6 / 4.01 x 10^{-22} = 3.39 x 10^{22} = 1.84 x 10^{11} energy level...

Jesse travels 3.0 meters east and then turns and travels 4.0 meters north. The trip requires 35 seconds. What is his velocity? 0
melisa1 [442]
Displacement = √(3² + 4²)
Displacement = 5 meters north east

Velocity = displacement / time
Velocity = 5 / 35
Velocity = 0.14 m/s northeast

An empty beaker is weighed and found to weigh 23.1 g. Some potassium chloride is then added to the beaker and weighed again. The
GuDViN [60]

Answer:Mass of Potassium chloride =1.762g

Explanation:

Mass of empty beaker = 23.100 g

Mass of beaker with Potassium chloride = 24.862g

Mass of Potassium chloride = Final weight - initial weight = Mass of beaker with Potassium chloride  - Mass of empty beaker = 24.862-23.100 = 1.762g
