What type of bonding occurs in chlorine?
Chlorine usually bonds ionically by gaining one electron.
What form does chlorine occurs in nature?
it occurs as compounds, reacted with other elements, and can be separated through the process of electrolysis
Describe how a sodium atom form a bond with a chlorine atom?
The bonding mechanism between sodium and chlorine atom occurs through harpoon mechanism
If calcium metal is exposed to chlorine gas a reaction occurs What will be the products of this reaction?
CaCl2
What type of change occurs when sodium and chlorine combine?
Chemical change and exothermic change
Ga-69 and Ga-71 Which isotope occurs in greater abundance?
Ga-69 - 60.1% Ga-71 - 39.9%
The atomic mass of an atom is equal to the sum of the numbers of what?
The mass number of an atom is the average of all it's isotopes in ratio to how often an isotope occurs naturally (abundance). An isotope is a variant of an element that has a different number of neutrons, therefore causing the atom to have a different mass. The percent abundance of an isotope is converted to a fraction, and multiplied by the mass of the isotope. Then all the factional masses of different isotopes are added together. Atomic mass = (mass isotope 1)x(fractional natural abundance of isotope 1) + (mass isotope 2)x(fractional natural abundance of isotope 2) + (mass isotope 3)x(fractional natural abundance of isotope 3) For example: Hydrogen has 3 naturally occurring isotopes: Protium - Abundance - 99.985% (.99985) Mass - 1.0078 Deuterium - Abundance - .015% (.00015) Mass - 2.014 Tritium - Abundance - 0% (.000) Mass - 3.016 Atomic mass number of Hyrdogen = (.99985)(1.0078) + (.00015)(2.014) + (.000)(3.016) = 1.00795 Go look up the mass number of Hydrogen on the periodic table and it says 1.008
What does the average atomic mass represent?
The average Atomic Mass represents the weighted average of the masses of the isotopes of the element.
What is isotope effect?
isotope effect occurs when there is a difference in the rate of reaction when an atom is replaced by an isotope.
A greater amount of DNA damage occurs when a living organism is exposed to a greater amount of a radioactive isotope. How might this affect the number of mutations acquired by the organ?
Answer this question… More mutations will be acquired, leading to more phenotypic changes.
What is the source of chlorine?
Chlorine occurs naturally only as a salt (as in sea water) from which it is extracted.
Occurs when an abundance of rainfall washes out valuable nutrients from the soil?
Leaching.
How atomic mass is calculated?
It's the atomic number + the number of neutronsto find the average atomic mass you must multiply the mass by it's percent natural abundance. do that for each isotope and add your answers together
The 1st isotope occurs 75.47 percent of the time and has a mass of 248.7 amu the 2nd isotope occurs 24.53 percent of the time and has a mass of 249.4 amu calculate the average atomic mass?
248.90

When radioactive decay occurs a atom is always produced by the action?
During any type of radioactive decay, one isotope (type of atom) will convert into a different isotope.
