Answer:
Rubidium-85=61.2
Rubidium-87=24.36
Atomic Mass=85.56 amu
Explanation:
To find the atomic mass, we must multiply the masses of the isotope by the percent abundance, then add.
<u>Rubidium-85 </u>
This isotope has an abundance of 72%.
Convert 72% to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal two places to the left.
- 72/100= 0.72 or 72.0 --> 7.2 ---> 0.72
Multiply the mass of the isotope, which is 85, by the abundance as a decimal.
- mass * decimal abundance= 85* 0.72= 61.2
Rubidium-85=61.2
<u>Rubidium-87</u>
This isotope has an abundance of 28%.
Convert 28% to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal two places to the left.
- 28/100= 0.28 or 28.0 --> 2.8 ---> 0.28
Multiply the mass of the isotope, which is 87, by the abundance as a decimal.
- mass * decimal abundance= 87* 0.28= 24.36
Rubidium-87=24.36
<u>Atomic Mass of Rubidium:</u>
Add the two numbers together.
- Rb-85 (61.2) and Rb-87 (24.36)

Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
Going by the clues that it is between Silver Flouride (AgF) and Sodium Fluoride (NaF) and since it is an aqueous solution , the 1 liter bottle is likely to be Sodium Chloride( NaCl). Going by the reaction,
AgF + NaCl= AgCl + NaF
Here, the color of AgCl is white, hence the solution cannot be AgCl.
Determination of NaCl
Determination of NaCl can be done by Mohr's Method or Volhard's method. But results in Volhard's method are more accurate . Its uses the method of back titration with Potassium Thiocynate which forms a AgCl precipitate . Prior to titration,excess AgNO3 ( The problem also has a clue that excess reagents are present in the lab ) is added to the NaCl solution so that all the Cl- ions react with Ag+. Fe3+ is then added as an indicator and the solution is titrated with KSCN to form a silver thiocyannite precipitate (AgSCN). Once all the silver has reacted, a slight excess of SCN- reacts with Fe3+ to form Fe(SCN)3 dark red complex. The concentration of Cl- is determined by subtracting the titer findings of Ag+ ions that reacted to form AgSCN from the Ag NO3 moles added to the solution. This is used because pH of the solution is acidic. If the pH of solution is basic, Mohr's method is used.
Reactions
Ag+ (aq)+ Cl-(aq) = AgCl(aq)
Ag+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = AgSCN(aq)
Fe3+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = [FeSCN]2- (aq)
So the equation is balanced, meaning they have the smallest amounts of each element in the reactants to create the products.
So, 2 moles of H2S (the coefficient) contributes to 2 moles Ag2S, which is why the ratio is 2:2.
I hope that made sense.
