Answer: The percentage abundance for $_{14}^{30}\textrm{Si}$ isotope is 3.09 %.

Explanation:

The average atomic mass of an element is calculated by taking the sum of the masses of all isotopes weighted by their respective natural fractional abundances.

To compute average atomic mass, the following formula is applied:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$ .....(1)

From the information provided:

Let the fractional abundance for $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope be 'x'

For $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 27.9769 amu

Percentage abundance of $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 92.22 %

Fractional abundance for $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 0.9222

For $_{14}^{29}\textrm{Si}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 28.9764 amu

Percentage abundance for $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 4.68%

Fractional abundance of $_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 0.0468

For $_{14}^{30}\textrm{Si}$ isotope:

Mass of $_{14}^{30}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = 29.9737 amu

Fractional abundance for $_{14}^{30}\textrm{Si}$ isotope = x

The average atomic mass of silicon is 28.084 amu

By inserting these values into equation 1, we derive:

$28.084=[(27.9769\times 0.9222)+(28.9764\times 0.0468)+(29.9737\times x)]\\\\x=0.0309$

To convert this fractional abundance into a percentage, multiply by 100:

$\Rightarrow 0.0309\times 100=3.09\%$

This shows that the percentage abundance for $_{14}^{30}\textrm{Si}$ isotope is 3.09 %.

(a) The original value of the reaction quotient, Qc, for the reaction of H2(g) and I2(g) to form HI(g) (before any reactions tak

KiRa [2933]

Response:

Here's my calculation

Clarification:

Assume the starting concentrations of H₂ and I₂ are 0.030 and 0.015 mol·L⁻¹, respectively.

We need to determine the initial concentration of HI.

1. We will need a chemical equation with concentrations, so let's compile all the information in one location.

H₂ + I₂ ⇌ 2HI

I/mol·L⁻¹: 0.30 0.15 x

2. Calculate the concentration of HI

$Q_{\text{c}} = \dfrac{\text{[HI]}^{2}} {\text{[H$_{2}$][I$_{2}$]}} =\dfrac{x^{2}}{0.30 \times 0.15} = 5.56\\\\x^{2} = 0.30 \times 0.15 \times 5.56 = 0.250\\x = \sqrt{0.250} = \textbf{0.50 mol/L}\\\text{The initial concentration of HI is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.50 mol/L}}$}$

3. Plot the initial values

The graph below visualizes the initial concentrations as plotted on the vertical axis.
