Using the atomic masses and relative abundance of the isotopes of nitrogen given below, determine the average atomic mass of nitrogen. N-14: 14.003 amu; 99.63% N-15: 15.000 amu; 0.37%

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The formula for average atomic mass is :

mass of isotope A * % of isotope A + mass of isotope B * % of isotope B + ....

Now,
Here,
Average atomic mass of nitrogen = (14.003 * 99.63%) + (15.000 * 0.37%)
                                                 = (14.003 * 0.9963) + ( 15.000 * 0.0037)
                                                 = 13.951 + 0.056
                                                 = 14.007 a.m.u.

An important application of exponential functions is working with half-life of radioactive isotopes in chemistry. These isotopes emit particles and decay into stable forms, in doing so they lose mass over time. Half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for the amount to decay by half. For example, the half life of Bromine-85 is 3 minutes. This means if you start with 60g of Br-85, 3 minutes later 30g will remain. How much Br-85 will remain after 20 minutes?

A weather balloon at Earth’s surface has a volume of 3.9 L at 299 K and 763 mmHg. If the balloon is released and the volume reaches 4.13 L at 720 mmHg, what is the temperature? Answer in units of K.

Answers

Combined Gas Laws

Given: V1= 3.9L    V2= 4.13L   T1= 299K   P1=763mmHg   P2=720mmHg

Unknown: T2=?

Formula: T2=T1P2V2 / P1V1

Solution: T2= (299K)(720mmHg)(4.13L) / (763mmHg)(3.9L)
                   = 889,106.4 / 2975.7

Answer: T2=298.8K

Hydrogen has three isotopes, 1H, 2H, and 3H. What is the difference between these three isotopes?A. The number of protons ranges from 1 to 3.
B. The number of electrons ranges from 1 to 3.
C. The number of neutrons ranges from 0 to 2.
D. The number of protons ranges from 0 to 2.

Answers

The correct answer is C.

A substance is said to exhibit isotopy if the number of proton and neutron in the nucleus of the atom differs, whille the number of proton and electron are the same. Hydrogen has three isotopes and each of the isotopes has different number of neutron. Hydrogen 1 has no neutron but have 1 proton, hydrogen 2 has 1 neutron and 1 proton and hydrogen 3 has 1 proton and 2 neutrons.

C... The number of neutrons ranges from 1H with 0 neutron, 2H with 1 neutron and 3H with 2 neutrons.

In the gaseous state, chlorine exists as a diatomic molecule Cl2 (Molar mass = 70.9 g/mol). Calculate the number of moles of chlorine present in 140 g of chlorine gas. Express the quantity in moles to three significant figures.

Answers

Considering the definition of molar mass, the number of moles of chlorine present in 140 grams of chlorine gas is 1.975 moles.

Definition of molar mass

The molar mass of substance is a property defined as its mass per unit quantity of substance, in other words, molar mass is the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

Number of moles present in 140 g of Cl₂

Next, you can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of molar mass 70.9 grams are contained in 1 mole of Cl₂, 140 grams of the gas are contained in how many moles?

amount of moles=(140 grams x 1 mole)/(70.9 grams)

amount of moles= 1.975 moles

Finally, the number of moles of chlorine present in 140 grams of chlorine gas is 1.975 moles.
