Lithium-6 is 7% abundant and Lithium-7 is 93% abundant. What is the average atomic mass with the correct significant figures?
O 7 amu
O 6.9 amu
O 6.93 amu
O 6 amu

Answers

Answer:

Average atomic mass  = 6.93 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percent abundance of lithium -6 = 7%

Percent abundance of lithium - 7 = 93%

Average atomic mass of Li = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (7×6)+(93×7) /100

Average atomic mass =  42+ 651 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 693/ 100

Average atomic mass  = 6.93 amu.

Which elements likely conduct electricity well ?
Check all that apply

Chromium
Iodine
Carbon
Calcium
Osmium

Answers

Answer:

Chromium, calcium, and osmium

Explanation:

These elements are metals, considering this, these elements electron shells(orbitals) are further away from the nucleus, with this, their attractions are not as strong as non-metals, so some of their electrons are able to move freely.

When you accumulate many atoms, these metals can form a "sea of electrons"  because they all have loose electrons interacting with each other. This allows easy conduction of heat and electricity.

Answer:

Chromium

Calcium

Osmium

Explanation:

The elements likely conduct electricity well are chromium, calcium and osmium. As these are metals and are observed to be good conductors of heat and electricity. They have extra electrons to donate and hence flow of electrons cause them to be a good conductor of electricity. Rest iodine is a non-metals which is not good conductors of electricity. Carbon is not itself a good conductor but one of its allotrope which is graphite is a good conductor of electricity.

why can molecules made of three atoms have a bent or linear shape?

Answers

Answer:

Bent = Linear but bent due to the Lone Pairs that it contains, the more Lone Pairs the greater the bent and the smaller the degree. It is 3 atoms total.

The discussion on bent/linear shape, and its further calculation can be defined as follows:

Linear form molecules containing atoms arranged inside a straight line.Molecules having linear electron-pair geometries have sp hybridization so at central atom.Bend molecular geometry, often called angular or V-shaped, relates to molecules that have a non-collinear organization of 2 adjacent bonds.Bent = Linear however bent given the presence of Lone Pairs; more the Lone Pairs, then higher the bent as well as the smaller its degree. This consists of 3 atoms in total.

Calculate the pH of substance one if it has an [OH-] that is equal to 3.2* 10^-8

Answers

Answer:

pH = 6.5

Explanation:

Given data:

pH of substance = ?

[OH⁻] concentration = 3.2×10⁻⁸

Solution:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = -log[3.2×10⁻⁸]

pOH = 7.5

we know that,

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14- pOH

pH = 14 - 7.5

pH = 6.5

NaCl

Explanation:

The only chemical species that shows an ionic compound is NaCl.

NaCl is an ionic compound that conducts electricity in molten state due to presence of free mobile electrons in the structure when molten.

An ionic bond typically forms between a metal and non-metal. In the compound NaCl, Na is the metal and Cl is the non-metal. The difference in electronegativity allows for this bond type to form.

Be sure to answer all parts.The equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction below is 61.5 at a certain temperature. H2(g) + I2(g) ⇆ 2HI(g) If you start with 0.155 M hydrogen iodide, what will the concentrations of H2, I2, and HI be at equilibrium?

Answers

Answer:

[tex][I_2]=[H_2]=0.0157M[/tex]

[tex][HI]=0.124M[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the undergoing chemical reaction, we can write the equilibrium expression as shown below:

[tex]Kc=\frac{[HI]^2}{[I_2][H_2]}[/tex]

However, since the reactions starts with 0.155 M hydrogen iodide, we need to invert the reaction as well as the equilibrium expression:

[tex]2HI\rightarrow I_2+H_2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{Kc}=0.0163 =\frac{[I_2][H_2]}{[HI]^2}[/tex]

And each concentration at equilibrium in terms of the reaction extent is:

[tex][I_2]=[H_2]=x[/tex]

[tex][HI]=0.155-2x[/tex]

Thus, plugging in the new expression we write:

[tex]0.0163 =\frac{x*x}{(0.155-2x)^2}[/tex]

Which has the following valid solution for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x=0.0157M[/tex]

Because the other solution is negative. Therefore, the concentration of hydrogen, iodine and hydrogen iodide at equilibrium turns out:

[tex][I_2]=[H_2]=0.0157M[/tex]

[tex][HI]=0.155-2(0.0157)=0.124M[/tex]

Best regards!

At the equilibrium, the concentration of hydrogen and iodine has been 0.0157 M each, and the concentration of HI will be 0.124 M.

The initial concentration of the reactant has been 0.155 M. From the balanced chemical equation, the ICE table will be:

         HI          [tex]\rm H_2[/tex]          [tex]\rm I_2[/tex]

I      0.155        0           0

C       -2x         x           x

E  0.155 - 2x    x          x

The value of the equilibrium constant can be given by the ratio of the concentration of products to the reactant.

The equilibrium constant for the reaction will be:

[tex]\rm k_c\;=\;\dfrac{[H_2]\;[I_2]}{[HI]^2}[/tex]

The given constant value has been for the opposite reaction. Thus the constant for the required reaction has been :

[tex]\rm \dfrac{1}{given\;k_c} \;=\;\dfrac{[H_2]\;[I_2]}{[HI]^2}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \dfrac{1}{61.5}[/tex] = [tex]\rm \dfrac{(x)\;(x)}{(0.155-2x)^2}[/tex]

0.0162 = [tex]\rm \dfrac{x^2}{(0.155-2x)^2}[/tex]

By simplyfying the equation,

x = 0.0157 M

At the equilibrium, the concentration of hydrogen and iodine has been 0.0157 M each.

The concentration of HI will be:

HI = 0.155 - 2x

HI = 0.155 - 2(0.0157)

HI = 0.124 M.

Explanation:

Bronze is composed by copper and tin. This means it is not a pure metal.Bronze cannot be mined, so it is not a mineral ore.An ionic compound of copper and tin could also be theoretically used to describe a non-solid ionic compound of copper and tin. However bronze is solid.Hence the answer is A copper-tin alloy.

Answer:

The correct answer is - Orange light reflected from the t-shirt enters human eyes.

Explanation:
