Explanation:

The scale under her feet exerts an equal force but opposite in direction.

This principle aligns with Newton's third law of motion, which says that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

As the girl’s weight presses down on the scale with a force of 42N, the scale responds with an equal upward force in the opposite direction.

The resulting net force is zero, which explains why her weight does not break the scale.

Compound A reacts with Compound B to form only one product, Compound C, and it's known the usual percent yield of C in this reac
VMariaS [2998]

Response:

1. 16.54 grams.

2. 6.64 grams.

Clarification:

Greetings,

In this situation, the chemical reaction taking place is:

A+B\rightarrow C

Thus, based on the provided data, the theoretical yield of C can be determined as:

m_C^{theoretical}=\frac{12.9g}{0.78}=16.54g

Additionally, taking into account the principle of conservation of mass, the mass prior to the reaction is equal to the mass following the reaction, hence, the mass of B that was utilized amounts to:

m_B=m_C-m_A=16.54g-10.0g=6.64g

Best regards.

An unknown element is found to have three naturally occurring isotopes with atomic masses of 35.9675 (0.337%), 37.9627 (0.063%)
Tems11 [2777]

Answer:

The correct choice for your inquiry is option A, Argon.

Explanation:

Isotope               Atomic mass                      Percent (%)

    1                       35.9675                              0.337

    2                      37.9627                              0.063

    3                      39.9624                            99.6

To calculate the average atomic mass: (Mass of isotope 1)(percent of 1) + (Mass of isotope 2)(percent of 2) + (Mass of isotope 3)(percent of 3)

Average atomic mass = (35.9675)(0.00337) + (37.9627)(0.00063) + (39.9624)(0.996)

Average atomic mass = 0.1212 + 0.0239 + 39.8025

Average atomic mass = 39.9476

                   Theoretical  Atomic mass

a) Ar                         39.95

b) K                          39.10

c) Cl                         35.45

d) Ca                       40.08
