Copper occurs in nature in the form of two isotopes, Cu-63 and Cu-65. Its correctly recorded atomic mass (weighted average) is 6

3.5 amu. Without doing the math, explain why it is safe to say that Cu-63 is more abundant than Cu-65.

63.5 is closer to 63 than 65 so you know when they find the average mass there are more Cu-63 isotopes

O2- is the Lewis ______ in the following reaction

matrenka [14]

$O^{2-}$ is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

$SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)$ → $SO_4^{2-}(aq)$

<h3>What is lewis base? </h3>

Lewis base is a species that donates an electron pair.

In the above-given chemical equation, the $O^{2-}$ is the lewis base which is donating an electron pair to the central atom of $SO_3$ to form $SO_4^{-2}$ .

Hence, $O^{2-}$ is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

$SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)$ → $SO_4^{2-}(aq)$
