A certain element consists of two stable isotopes. The first has a mass of 62.9 amu and a percent natural abundance of 69.1 %. The second has a mass of 64.9 amu and a percent natural abundance of 30.9 %. What is the atomic weight of the element?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

63.518

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of Isotope A = 62.9 amu

Abundance of isotope A (A%) = 69.1%

Mass of isotope B = 64.9 amu

Abundance of isotope B (B%) = 30.9%

Atomic weight of the element =..?

The atomic weight of the element can be obtained as follow:

Atomic weight = [(Mass of A x A%)/100] + [(Mass of B x B%) /100]

Atomic weight = [(62.9 x 69.1)/100] + [(64.9 x 30.9)/100]

Atomic weight = 43.4639 + 20.0541

Atomic weight = 63.518

Therefore, the atomic weight of the element is 63.518.

A solution of benzene in methanol has a transmittance of 93.0 % in a 1.00 cm cell at a wavelength of 254 nm. Only the benzene absorbs light at this wavelength, not the methanol. What will the solution's transmittance be if it is placed in a 10.00 cm long pathlength cell

Answers

Answer:

T = 48.39%

Explanation:

In this case we need to apply the Beer law which is the following:

A = CεL  (1)

Where:

A: Absorbance of solution

C: Concentration of solution

ε: Molar Absortivity (Constant)

L: Length of the cell

Now according to the given data, we have transmittance of 93% or 0.93. We can calculate absorbance using the following expression:

A = -logT (2)

Applying this expression, let's calculate the Absorbance:

A = -log(0.93)

A = 0.03152

Now that we have the absorbance, let's calculate the concentration of the solution, using expression (1).

A = CεL

C = A / εL

Replacing:

C = 0.03152 / 1 *ε   (3)

Now, we want to know the transmittance of the solution with a length of 10 cm. so:

A = CεL

Concentration and ε are constant, so:

A = (0.03152 / ε) * ε * 10

A = 0.3152

Now that we have the new absorbance, we can calculate the new transmittace:

T = 10^(-A)

T = 0.4839 ----> 48.39%

Be sure to correctly indicate stereochemistry in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Stereoisomers are two or more atoms that  have the same bonding order of atoms but there is a difference  spatial arrangement of  the  atoms in space.

A plane of symmetry divides a molecule into two equal halves.

A chiral stereoisomer are not superimposed on a mirror image , Hence they do not posses a plane of symmetry.

As a result to that. these non-superimposable mirror images are said to be Enantiomers.

However, a Fischer Projection emanates from a two - dimensional figure which is used for presenting a three - dimensional organic molecules.

From the given question;

Describe the buffer capacity of the acetic acid buffer solution in relation to the addition of both concentrated and dilute acids and bases.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is in the explanation

Explanation:

Acetic acid, CH₃COOH, is a weak acid that will produce a buffer when its conjugate base, CH₃COO⁻, acetate ion, is added to the solution.

That is because a buffer is the mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

When an acid (HX) is added to the solution, the acetate ion will react producing acetic acid, thus:

CH₃COO⁻ + HX → CH₃COOH + X⁻

For this reason, the pH doesn't change abruptly because H⁺ ions are not produced.

Now, if a  base (BOH) is added to the buffer, CH₃COOH will react producing acetate ion and water, thus:

CH₃COOH + BOH → CH₃COO⁻ + H₂O + B⁺.

In the same way, there are not produced free OH⁻ and the pH doesn't change significantly.

The reason for the dramatic decline in the number of measles cases from the 1960s to 2010 in the United States was because the vaccine

Answers

Answer:

It was because the vaccine generated actively acquired immunity, that is, inoculation of a portion of the measles virus so that the body forms the antibodies for a second contact and thus can destroy it without triggering the pathology.

Explanation:

Vaccines are methods of active acquired immunity since the antibody is not passively inoculated, it is manufactured by the body with a physiological process once part of the virus is inoculated.

The measles virus most of all affected the lives of infants or newborn children with severe rashes and high fevers that led to death.

25.00 mL of a H2SO4 solution with an unknown concentration was titrated to a phenolphthalein endpoint with 28.11 mL of a 0.1311 M NaOH solution. What is the concentration of the H2SO4 solution

Answers

Answer:

Concentration of the H₂SO₄ solution is 0.0737 M

Explanation:

Equation of the neutralization reaction between the acid, H₂SO₄, and the base, NaOH, is given below:

H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH -----> Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

From the above equation, one mole of acid requires 2 moles of base for complete neutralization which occurs at phenolphthalein endpoint.

mole ratio of acid to base, nA/nB = 1:2

Concentration of the base, Cb = 0.1311 M

Volume of base, Vb, = 28.11 mL

Concentration of acid, Ca = ?

Volume of acid, Va + 25.0 mL

Using the formula, CaVa/CbVb = nA/nB

making Ca subject of the formula, Ca = Cb*Vb*nA/Va*nB

substituting the values into the equation

Ca = (0.1311 * 28.11 * 1) / 25.0 * 2 = 0.0737 M

Therefore, concentration of the H₂SO₄ solution is 0.0737 M

A solution is prepared by mixing 5.00 mL of 0.100 M HCl and 2.00 mL of 0.200 M NaCl. What is the molarity of chloride ion in this solution?

Answers

Answer:

0.129 M

Explanation:

0.100 M HCl = 0.100 mol/L solution HCl

5.00 mL = 0.00500 L solution HCl

0.100 mol/L HCl * 0.00500 L = 0.000500 mol HCl

                             HCl ------> H+ + Cl-

                           1 mol                   1 mol

                    0.000500 mol           0.000500 mol

0.200 M NaCl = 0.200 mol/L solution NaCl

2.00 mL = 0.00200 L solution NaCl

0.200 mol/L NaCl*0.00200 L = 0.000400 mol NaCl

                              NaCl ------> Na+ + Cl-

                            1 mol                        1 mol

                     0.000400 mol               0.000400 mol

Chloride ion altogether (0.000500 mol + 0.000400 mol) =0.000900 mol

Solution altogether (0.00500 L+0.00200 L) = 0.00700L

Molarity (Cl-)= solute/solution = 0.000900 mol/0.00700L = 0.129 mol/L=

= 0.129 M

The lock-and-key model and the induced-fit model are two models of enzyme action explaining both the specificity and the catalytic activity of enzymes. Following are several statements concerning enzyme and substrate interaction. Indicate whether each statement is part of the lock-and-key model, the induced-fit model, or is common to both models.

a. Enzyme conformation changes when it binds the substrate so the active site fits the substrate.
b. Substrate binds to the enzyme at the active site, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.
c. Enzyme active site has a rigid structure complementary
d. Substrate binds to the enzyme through noncovalent interactions

Answers

Answer:

The lock-and-key model:

c. Enzyme active site has a rigid structure complementary

The induced-fit model:

a. Enzyme conformation changes when it binds the substrate so the active site fits the substrate.

Common to both The lock-and-key model and The induced-fit model:

b. Substrate binds to the enzyme at the active site, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.

d. Substrate binds to the enzyme through non-covalent interactions

Explanation:

Generally, the catalytic power of enzymes are due to transient covalent bonds formed between an enzyme's catalytic functional group and a substrate as well as non-covalent interactions between substrate and enzyme which lowers the activation energy of the reaction. This applies to both the lock-and-key model as well as induced-fit mode of enzyme catalysis.

The lock and key model of enzyme catalysis and specificity proposes that enzymes are structurally complementary to their substrates such that they fit like a lock and key. This complementary nature of the enzyme and its substrates ensures that only a substrate that is complementary to the enzyme's active site can bind to it for catalysis to proceed. this is known as the specificity of an enzyme to a particular substrate.

The induced-fit mode proposes that binding of substrate to the active site of an enzyme induces conformational changes in the enzyme which better positions various functional groups on the enzyme into the proper position to catalyse the reaction.

O B. An atom that has lost or gained 1 or more neutrons
O C. An atom that has lost or gained 1 or more protons
D. An atom that differs in mass from another atom of the same
element

Answers

Answer:

An ion is an atom that has lost or gained one or more electrons.

Explanation:

Ions are positively or negatively charged atoms of elements. This is because they can give, take, or share electrons with other elements to encourage the formation of chemical bonds.

Protons are what decide the chemical identity of the element. So, for example, if an atom has 11 protons, we know that will be a Sodium (Na) atom. A loss or gain of protons completely changes the chemical identity of the element and it will then become another element.

Electrons are what give an atom a neutral electrical charge (if that atom has the number of protons and neutrons normally described for the element - otherwise, a discrepancy or gain in neutrons is referred to as an isotope and declares that ions have nothing to do with the mass of an element).

With this information, you can realize that neutrons and protons have nothing to do with ions and you can confirm that ions are atoms that have lost or gained one or more electrons.
