% abundance?
Q. Uranium has an atomic mass equal to 238.0289. It consists of two isotopes: uranuim-235 with an isotopic mass of 235.44 amu and uranium-238 with an isotopic mass of 238.51. How do i calculate the % abundance of the uranium-235 isotope? I need to know how to do the actual proceedure. If you could just show me how to get it that would be great! thanks!

A. Let x = % abundane Uranium -235 the % abundance of Uranium -238 will be 100 -x 238.0289 = x ( 235.44) + ( 100-x ) 238.51 / 100 23802.89 = x ( 235.44) + 23851 - x(238.51) 48.11 = 3.07 x x = 15.67 % => U-235 % U -238 = 100 - 15.67 =84.33

How to find the natural abundance of antimony 121 and 123?
Q. You are given the mass of antimony 121 as 120.904 and 123 as 122.904 and we are supposed to find the natural abundance percentage by using the periodic table value of antimony(121.760)
Asked by sean l - Wed Jan 20 00:50:40 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The value on the periodic table is the abundance of each mass multiplied by that mass. So figuring that there has to be a total of 100% abundance, you have x% of one, and 100%-x% of the other. YOur equation is then %A*m1 + (1-%B)*m2 = Mass on table A*120.904 + (1-A)*122.904 = 121.76 120.904A + 122.904 - 122.904A = 121.76 -2A = -1.144 A = 0.572 So Sb121 has 57.2% abundance, Sb123 has (1-0.572) = 0.428 = 42.8% abundance

Asked by unknown - Wed Aug 5 01:32:30 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Hi Marielle: Let x be the fraction of the lighter isotope then 126.6331x is the contribution the light isotope makes to the overall atomic weight. The remaining fraction (1-x) therefore contributes 129.1386(1-x) to the atomic weight which we are given = 127.3321 So 126.6331x + 129.1386(1-x) = 127.3371 From which x = 1.8065/2.5055 = 0.721014 or 72.1014% (we're 1 sig short but ...) cheers, drp

How to find percent abundance of 2 isotopes of an element?
Q. I am given two isotopes of the same element, I am given the atomic weight and mass number of each isotope. How would I find the percent of abundance for each isotope?
Asked by Brian - Wed Sep 17 15:54:02 2008 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments

A. If you know the element, look up the atomic mass on the periodic table. It's the number with places after the decimal. If there are only two isotopes they have to add up to 100% (or in decimal form 1) so you set it up like this: (atomic weight of one isotope)(x) + (atomic weight of other isotope)(1-x) = the atomic mass you find on the table. Use algebra to find x. Don't forget to use the distributive property. Example: Cl-35 weighs 34.969 amu Cl-37 weighs 36.966 amu (34.969)(x) + (36.966)(1-x) = 35.453 (on the table for Chlorine) 34.969 x + 36.966 - 36.966 x = 35.453 -1.997 x = -1.513 x = 0.75764 so Cl-35 abundance is 75.764% and Cl-37 is 24.236 %

Asked by LOST - Mon Feb 2 20:16:51 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. All countries have been poor by today's standards for most of their history and only in the last 100 years or so have any been rich. Countries got rich because they industrialized which make workers more productive and the poor countries have not industrialized yet but many previously poor countries are doing so now and their economies growing rapidly and soon will be rich. One of the things that is still holding some countries back is their population is growing faster than their economy and they are caught in what economist call the Malthusian Trap. Some economist think that the reason it took so long for the Industrial revolution to happen is because Europe was also until the black death reduce the population by 1/3,

How do you find out the fractional abundance of an isotope?
Q. For instance: Chlorine has two naturally occurring isotopes, chlorine-35 (isotopic mass 34.9689 amu) and chlorine-37 (isotopic mass 36.9659 amu). If chlorine has an atomic mass of 35.4527 amu, what is the percent abundance of each isotope? How would I work this problem?
Asked by flyercam2 - Mon Aug 21 21:39:51 2006 - - 1 Answers - 2 Comments

A. To find the percent abundance of each isotope of chlorine proceed as follows: Let x = fraction of Cl-35 then fraction of Cl-37 must be 1-x so 34.9689x + (36.9659)(1-x) = 35.4527 and solve for x. I hope this helps.

Asked by Jay - Sat Feb 13 18:28:09 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Sounds like a really easy problem actually. x * 12.00 + y * 13.00 = (x+y) * 12.01 = x * 12.01 + y * 12.01 y * 0.99 = x * 0.01 y * 99 = x so that would mean 99 parts with isotope Carbon-12, and 1 part with isotope Carbon-13.

Asked by Jade - Mon Nov 2 16:39:55 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If x is the fraction of 63-Cu, then (1-x) is the fraction of 65-Cu. There are two isotopes and their total abundance must be 1. Then 63.55 = 62.93x +(1-x)64.93 = 62.93x + 64.93 - 64.93x = 64.93 - 2x 2x = 64.93 - 63.55 = 1.38 so x = 0.69 63-Cu is 69% and 65-Cu is 31%

A. canadien, You take the weighted average of all the isotopic masses for the element. For example, say the element has three isotopes, with the respective fractions of each isotope being F1, F2, and F3 (note -- I said fraction, not percent -- the fraction is the percent divided by 100, so that F1 + F2 + F3 = 1). Then, take the isotopic mass of each isotope, say they are M1, M2, and M3. Take each isotopic mass, multiply it by its fractional abundance, and add them all up: Atomic weight = F1M1 + F2M2 + F3M3 + ... That's all there is to it! Hope that helps!

A. Yes, it is possible. By choosing your thoughts carefully. From what I know, hardwork doesn't necessarily result to abundance. Four scenarios you may choose: (1) life of hardwork and toil while being poor, (2) hardwork and toil while being rich, (3) lazy and relaxed life while being poor, and (4) lazy and relaxed life while being rich. Which one? Whichever you choose, the secret there is to preceed all your words with actions. If you choose the fourth scenario, then be lazy and relaxed and be rich.

It is found in the feces of animals and that is used as fertilizer. nitrogen fixing bacteria are able to take it from the air to make it available to plants. They live on the roots of legumes. Sometimes theese crops are plowed under to give the soil the new nitrogen as plants and animals decay, their nitrogen is released into the soil for plants Check the nitrogen cycle to see the different bacteria that help keep nitrogen available Nitrogen may be obtained by fractional distillation of liquid air
