<span> First you need to know how many isotopes there are of silicon, and its average atomic units (look at periodic table). Then make up a system of equations to solve for it. Theres 3 stable silicon isotopes (28, 29, 30) so you will need to have 3 equations. You must be given the percent abundance of at least one of the isotopes to solve because here I can only see 2 equations (numbered down below) set x = percent abundance of si-28 y = percent abundance of si-29 z = percent abundance of si-30 since all of silicon atoms account for 100% of all silicon: x + y + z = 100% = 1 therefore: 1) x = 1 - y - z You also have 2) 28x + 29y + 30z = average atomic mass you can substitute x so that equation becomes: 28 (1 - y - z) + 29y + 30z = average atomic mass See how you have 2 variables here? You cant go on until you know the value of one isotope already or you have given a clue which you can derive the third equation</span>
Answer:
Sr 2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → SrSO4(s)
Explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: Write a properly balanced equation with states:
K2SO4(aq) + Srl2(aq) → 2KI(aq) + SrSO4(s)
<u>Step 2</u>: write the full ionic equation with states. Remember to keep molecules intact. Only states (aq) will dissociate, (s) will not dissociate
. This means SrSO4 won't dissociate.
2K+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + Sr 2+(aq) + 2I-(aq) → 2K+(aq) + 2I-(aq) + SrSO4(s)
<u>Step 3</u>: Balanced net ionic equation
Sr 2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → SrSO4(s)
