5 g of anhydrous strontium nitrate is added to a beaker and exposed to the air. After several hours the beaker and the contents are weighed. It was found that the mass increased by 1.70 g. Assume that the increase in mass is totally due to the absorption of water by the anhydrous compound.
What is the percentage of water in the hydrated sample?
what are the properties of cathode rays and anode rays?
1. Using a deuteron beam, a sample of isotopically enriched fluorine is generated, consisting of 18F and 19F.
Because this is not a natural sample, the average atomic mass on the periodic table cannot be used!
Given the following abundances in the sample, calculate the new atomic mass (in amu) of the fluorine in the sample. Do not include units in your answer. Show work and upload that work to the final question of this quiz.
18F: 18.01 amu, 71.79%
19F: 19.008 amu, 28.21%
2. A 18.4 mg sample is made up of isotopically enhanced C6F14, using the same procedure described in the previous question. This chemical is used to carry oxygen to the lungs of severe burn victims, and doctors want to use the radioactive version to see if it moves from the lungs to other places in the body.
Using the molar mass of fluorine that you calculated for this sample, determine how many moles of labeled fluorine are present in the sample.Express your answer in scientific notation without units. (Ex. 132.8…

- Element Atomic Number: 1 Name: Hydrogen Symbol: H Atomic Number 1 O'H O2H 25 50 75 Atomic Number An atom can be thought of as being formed from a number of combined 'H atoms with additional neutrons in the nucleus. The mass of an atom is less than that of the combined masses of the nuclear particles from which it is formed. This "mass loss" is an indication of the stablity of the atom's nucleus. In order to compare different atoms, the relative mass loss (in g/mol) is defined as: [(number protons x mass of 'H)+(number of neutrons x mass of n)] - atomic mass number of protons + number of neutrons The atom's binding energy (the energy associated with holding the nucleus together) can be calculated as: relative mass loss (kg/mol) x (2.998 x 10°m/s) The resulting units are joules/mole. Because calculating the relative mass loss involves dividing by the total number of nucleons (protons + neutrons), the binding energy is called the 'binding energy per nucleon.'
