Calculate the average atomic mass/given their percent abundance
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 55.76756 \ amu}}[/tex]
Explanation:
The average atomic mass is the sum of the product of the given masses and their abundances. We have to complete two steps for each isotope, then add all the products together.
Fe-54
Convert the percent abundance to a decimal by dividing by 100.
5.845/100= 0.05845Multiply the abundance as a decimal by the mass number. This is the number after the element in the isotope symbol (54 amu).
0.005845 * 54=3.1563 amuFe-56
Convert the percent to a decimal.
91.754/100=0.91754Multiply the decimal by the mass number (56 amu).
0.91754 * 56= 51.38224 amuFe-58
Convert the percent to a decimal.
2.119/100=0.02119Multiply by the mass number (58 amu).
0.02119 * 58 = 1.22902 amuAverage Atomic Mass
Add all the products together to find the average atomic mass.
3.1563 amu + 51.38224 amu + 1.22902 amu =55.76756 amuThe average atomic mass given the percent abundance is 55.7656 atomic mass units.

From the energy diagram, it is clear that, the enthalpy of the reaction is positive and it is an endothermic reaction.
What is an endothermic reaction ?An endothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings, resulting in a decrease in temperature of the surroundings. In other words, energy is taken in by the reaction from the environment.
During an endothermic reaction, the reactants absorb energy in the form of heat, light, or electricity to break the bonds between their atoms and form new bonds to create products.
The amount of energy absorbed by the reactants is greater than the energy released by the products. This energy difference is usually expressed as the enthalpy change (∆H) of the reaction, which is positive for endothermic reactions.
Here, the energy of products is higher than that of reactants and hence option A is correct.

b. The mass of the precipitate, Al(OH)₃ formed is approximately 13 grams
c. The mass of the precipitate, Mg(OH)₂, formed is approximately 14.579925 grams
Explanation:
3. The 1 mole of ethanol and 1 mole of ethanoic acid combines to form 1 mole of ethyl ethanoate
The number of moles of ethyl ethanoate in 1 gram of ethyl ethanoate, n = 1 g/(88.11 g/mol) = 1/88.11 moles
∴ The number of moles of ethanol = 1/88.11 moles
The number of moles of ethanoic acid = 1/88.11 moles
The mass of ethanol = (46.07 g/mol) × 1/88.11 moles = 0.522869 g
The mass of ethanoic acid in the reaction = 60.052 g/mol × 1/88.11 moles ≈ 0.68156 g
4. 1 mole of iron(III) oxide reacts with 1 mole of CO₂ to produce 1 mole of iron
The number of moles in 100 tonnes of iron= 100000000/55.845 = 1790670.60614 moles
The mass of iron (III) oxide required = 159.69 × 1790670.60614 = 285952189.095 g ≈ 285.952.189.095 tonnes
5. The number of moles of NaCl in 5 grams of NaCl = 5 g/58.44 g/mol = 0.0855578371 moles
The mass of silver nitrate required, m = 169.87 g/mol × 0.0855578371 moles ≈ 14.53 grams
6. The number of moles of CuSO₄·5H₂O in 100 g of CuSO₄·5H₂O = 100 g/(249.69 g/mol) ≈ 0.4005 moles
The mass of copper oxide required, m = 79.545 g/mol × 0.4005 moles ≈ 31.86 grams
7. a. The number of moles of NaOH in the reaction = 20 g/(39.997 g/mol) ≈ 0.5 moles
2 moles of NaOH produces 1 mole of Zn(OH)₂
0.5 moles of NaOH will produce 0.5 mole of Zn(OH)₂
The mass of 0.5 mole of Zn(OH)₂ = 0.5 mole × 99.424 g/mol = 49.712 grams
The mass of the precipitate, Zn(OH)₂ formed = 49.712 grams
b. 6 moles of NaOH produces 2 moles Al(OH)₃
20 g, or 0.5 mole of NaOH will produce (1/6) mole of Al(OH)₃
The mass of the precipitate, Al(OH)₃ formed, m = 78 g/mol×(1/6) moles = 13 grams
c. 2 moles of NaOH produces 1 mole of Mg(OH)₂, therefore;
20 g or 0.5 moles of NaOH formed (1/4) mole of Mg(OH)₂

3. given C^2H^5OH + CH^3CO^2H → CH^3CO^2C^2H^5 + H^2O
molar ratio of ethanol, ethanoic acid and ethyl ethanoate is 1 : 1 : 1
so mass = no. of moles * molecular mass
for same no. of moles, mass / molecular mass is the same
molecular mass of CH^3CO^2C^2H^5 = 12+1*3+12+16*2+12*2+5*1 = 88
molecular mass of C^2H^5OH = 12*2+1*5+16+1 = 46
molecular mass of CH^3CO^2H = 12+1*3+12+16*2+1 = 60
1 g of ethyl ethanoate = 1/88 mole
it requires 1/88*46 = 0.5227 g of ethanol; and
1/88*60 = 0.6818 g of ethanoic acid
to react together to form 1 g of ethyl ethanoate

1:Which one of the following solutions shows no current flow in an electrolytic cell?
A: water solution of table salt
B: molten sodium chloride
C: hydrochloric acid solution
D: sugar solution
Answer: Sugar solution shows no current flow in an electrolytic cell.
Explanation:
Electric current is the flow of ions or charged species from one point to another.
A solution that does not contain any ions is not able to conduct electric current.
Water solution of table salt (NaCl) contains sodium and chlorine ions. So, an electric current can pass through it.Molten sodium chloride also contains sodium and chlorine ions. Hence, an electric current can pass through it.Hydrochloric acid solution contains [tex]H^{+}[/tex] and [tex]Cl^{-}[/tex] ions. So, an electric current can pass through it.Sugar solution does not contain ions as sugar only dissolves in water but do not dissociate into ions. Hence, current cannot flow through sugar solution.Thus,, we can conclude that sugar solution shows no current flow in an electrolytic cell.
A gas is put into a cosed container.
The container and the gas inside it are heated.
What will happen to the pressure inside the container?
Answer:
When gases in containers are heated, their molecules increase in average speed. This means that they exert a greater force when they collide with the container walls, and also collide with the walls more frequently. The gas is therefore under greater pressure when its temperature is higher.
A gas has a pressure of 450 mmHg at 100 degrees Celsius. What will its new pressure be when the temperature rises 200 degrees Celsius
Answer:
P2 = 900 mmHg.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial pressure = 450 mmHg
Initial temperature = 100°C
Final temperature = 200°C
To find the final pressure, we would use Gay Lussac's law;
Gay Lussac states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.
Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;
[tex] PT = K[/tex]
[tex] \frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P2}{T2}[/tex]
Making P2 as the subject formula, we have;
[tex] P_{2}= \frac{P1}{T1} * T_{2}[/tex]
[tex] P_{2}= \frac{450}{100} * 200 [/tex]
[tex] P_{2}= 4.5 * 200 [/tex]
Final pressure, P2 = 900 mmHg.

Answer:
For 1: 6.68 g of nitrogen dioxide will contain [tex]8.73\times 10^{22}[/tex] number of molecules
For 2: The given amount of nitrogen dioxide molecules has a mass of 41.31 g.
Explanation:
According to the mole concept:
1 mole of a compound contains [tex]6.022\times 10^{23}[/tex] number of molecules
The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:
[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}[/tex] ......(1)
For 1:We are given:
Mass of nitrogen dioxide = 6.68 g
Molar mass of nitrogen dioxide = 46 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
[tex]\text{Moles of nitrogen dioxide}=\frac{6.68g}{46g/mol}=0.145mol[/tex]
Using above concept:
If 1 mole of a compound contains [tex]6.022\times 10^{23}[/tex] number of molecules
So, 0.145 moles of nitrogen dioxide will contain = [tex](0.145\times 6.022\times 10^{23})=8.73\times 10^{22}[/tex] number of molecules
Hence, 6.68 g of nitrogen dioxide will contain [tex]8.73\times 10^{22}[/tex] number of molecules
For 2:We are given:
Molecules of nitrogen dioxide = [tex]5.41\times 10^{22}[/tex] molecules
Using the above concept:
If [tex]6.022\times 10^{23}[/tex] number of molecules are present in 1 mole of a compound
So, [tex]5.41\times 10^{22}[/tex] number of molecules will be present in = [tex]\frac{1mol}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\times 5.41\times 10^{22}=0.898[/tex] moles of nitrogen dioxide
We know, molar mass of nitrogen dioxide = 46 g/mol
Using equation 1:
[tex]0.898mol=\frac{\text{Mass of nitrogen dioxide}}{46g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of nitrogen dioxide}=0.898mol\times 46g/mol=41.31g[/tex]
Hence, the given amount of nitrogen dioxide molecules has a mass of 41.31 g.

in heating a kettle of water on an electric stove, 3.34×10^3 J of thermal energy was provided by the element of the stove. yet, the water in the kettle gained only 5.95×10^2 J of thermal energy. determine the percent efficiency of the electrical element in heating the kettle of water
Answer:
The percentage efficiency of the electrical element is approximately 82.186%
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The thermal energy provided by the stove element, [tex]H_{supplied}[/tex] = 3.34 × 10³ J
The amount thermal energy gained by the kettle, [tex]H_{absorbed}[/tex] = 5.95 × 10² J
The percentage efficiency of the electrical element in heating the kettle of water, η%, is given as follows;
[tex]\eta \% = \dfrac{H_{supplied} - H_{absorbed} }{H_{supplied}} \times 100[/tex]
Therefore, we get;
[tex]\eta \% = \dfrac{3.34 \times 10^3 - 5.95 \times 10^2}{3.34 \times 10^3} \times 100 = \dfrac{549}{668} \times 100 \approx 82.186 \%[/tex]
The percentage efficiency of the electrical element, η% ≈ 82.186%.

Calculate the average atomic mass for element X
Answer:
39.02amu
Explanation:
According to this question, there are four (4) isotopes for element X with the following relative abundance:
Isotope 1 = 9.67%, mass no: 38
Isotope 2 = 78.68%, mass no: 39
Isotope 3 = 11.34%, mass no: 40
Isotope 4 = 0.31%, mass no: 41
To find the average atomic mass of element X, we multiply each isotopes' relative abundance by its mass no and find the sum as follows:
We convert each percentage to decimal abundance:
Isotope 1 = 9.67% = 0.0967
Isotope 2 = 78.68% = 0.7868
Isotope 3 = 11.34% = 0.1134
Isotope 4 = 0.31% = 0.0031
(0.0967 × 38) + (0.7868 × 39) + (0.1134 × 40) + (0.0031 × 41)
3.6746 + 30.6852 + 4.536 + 0.1271
Average atomic mass = 39.02amu

please Answer and give the correct answer...
Answer:
Physical chemistry is the study of macroscopic, and particulate phenomena in chemical systems in terms of the principles, practices, and concepts of physics such as motion, energy, force, time, thermodynamics, quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, analytical dynamics and chemical equilibrium while environmental chemistry is the study of chemical processes that occur in water, air, terrestrial and living environments, and the effects of human activity on them.
Physical chemistry is the area of chemistry that deals with how materials interact and change. The scientific study of chemical and biological phenomena that take place in the environment is known as environmental chemistry.
Physical chemistry attempts to quantify, correlate, and explain the quantitative features of reactions by focusing, in contrast to other branches, on the physics principles that underlie all chemical interactions (such as the gas laws).
While environmental chemistry is the study of chemical species' sources, reactions, movement, impacts, and fates in the air, soil, and water environments, as well as the impact of human activity and biological activity on these, can be summed up as the field of chemical ecology.

What are the values of the solute amount in moles and the solution volume in liters.
Answer:
0.250L of solution. 0.250 moles of solute.
Explanation:
As you can see in the image, there is a beaker with an amount of solution. 1/2L are 500mL and each line of the beaker represents 100mL. That means the volume of the solution is approximately 250mL = 0.250L
Molarity is an unit of concentration defined as the moles of solute per liter of solution. A solution that is 1.000M contains 1.000 moles of solute per liter of solution.
As the volume of the solution is 0.250L, the moles are:
0.250L * (1.000mol/L) = 0.250 moles of solute

Anthracite coal d) is the most abundant grade of coal e) is very soft and burns at high temperatures a) causes the most air pollution c) is very hard and burns cleanly b) has the highest sulfur content
Answer: The correct option is C ( is very hard and burns cleanly).
Explanation:
COAL is a form of rock that is made up of mostly carbon amongst other elements which includes sulphur, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. There are different types of coal which include:
--> anthracite ( 90% carbon)
--> bituminous coal ( 70-90% carbon)
--> lignite ( 60- 70% carbon) and
--> peat (60 % carbon).
Anthracite is the type of coal that contains the highest carbon content ( 90% carbon). This makes it very hard and is often a times referred to as HARD COAL. Anthracite is a higher quality coal for domestic and open fire heating. This is because it contains less impurities than other type of coal and thereby making it to BURN CLEANLY avoiding atmospheric pollution.
