Look up the following information for the element iridium: (i) number of protons, neutrons, and electrons; (ii) atomic number and average atomic mass; (iii) the charge of the anion(s) or cation(s) that it commonly forms; (iv) the mass of its two most common isotopes and the number of protons and neutrons in each one. Also, comment briefly on the presence of this element in meteorite craters and the significance of this observation.
The 18O:16O abundance ratio in some meteorites is greater than that used to calculate the average atomic mass of oxygen on earth. Is the average mass of an oxygen atom in these meteorites greater than, less than, or equal to thatof a terrestrial oxygen atom?

Compared to the speed of sound in a bar of U235, is the speed of sound in a bar of U238 higher, lower, or the same? There are several factors that play a role. (a) Chemically, the atoms of these two isotopes behave in essentially identical ways, since the number of protons (92) is identical and the clouds of 92 electrons are nearly identical. The interatomic distance, and the effective "stiffness" of the interatomic bond, both depend on the chemical properties of the atoms. Therefore, which of the following statements are true? O The effective stiffness of the interatomic "spring" is greater for U238 because the mass is greater. O The effective stiffness of the interatomic "spring" is the same in the two isotopes, since this "spring" is a model for the interactions of the outer electrons, which are the same for different isotopes of the same atom. O An atom with more mass in the nucleus is bigger, so the distance…arrow_forward

The compound is so intensely coloured that even a small amount of it makes for a black or dark blue suspension. Given that this antidote has never before been administered at the hospital, none of the doctors or nurses have experience with it. There is one very old bottle of Fe-(CN)18 pills in the medicine store-room, but the label is worn and the units are in the old, archaic British Apothecaries' system which has unusual units like drachms, scruples, grains, and mites: 453.6 grams (g) = 1 pound (Ib) = 12 ounces (3) = 96 drachms (3) = 288 scruples (3) = 5760 grains (gr) = 115200 mites (m)arrow_forwardPredict the products of the reaction below.
