Arobot spacecraft returned samples from the planetesimal 98765 aleks, located in the outer solar system. mass spectroscopic analysis produced the following
data on the isotopes of tin in these samples:
isotope
e mass relative
(amu) abundance
112 sn 111.9
93.5%
116 sn 115.9 6.5%
use these measurements to complete the entry for tin in the periodic table that would be used on 98765 aleks. be sure your answers have the correct number
of significant digits.
caution: your correct answer will have the same format but not necessarily the same numbers as the entry for tin in the periodic table we use here on earth
x
5
?

Note about significant digits:

1. Both isotope mass figures, 111.9 amu and 115.9 amu, have 4 signficant digits.

2. You can assume that the relative abundance (93.5% and 6.5%) are exact to the extense that they do not affect the precision of the measures, so the result will contain the same number of significant digits as the isotope mass, i.e. 4

               Entry (answer)

                       50       ← atomic number

                       Sn       ← chemical symbol

                     112.2     ← atomic mass

Explanation:

Table of data

Mass spectroscopic analysis

Isotope        mass         relative abundance

                    (amu)

¹¹²Sn             111.9               93.5%

¹¹⁶Sn             115.9                 6.5%

Then entry in the periodic table consists of the chemical symbol (Sn), the atomic number above the symbol, and the atomic mass below the symbol.

1) Atomic number

The atomic number is the same in any planet, as it is the number of protons and identifies uniquely the element. So, tin (Sn) has 50 protons in any place and the atomic number is 50.

2) Atomic mass

Atomic mass is the weigthed average of the atomic masses of the element in its nature state; so it depends of the relative abundance, and si calculated with this formula:

To keep 4 significant figures the number 112.16 hast to be rounded the closest number with one decimal, which is 112.2 (112.16 is closer to 112.2 than to 112.1)

answer: the figure is attached herewith.

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to sketch a unit circle and label the terminal points corresponding to

in the attached figure, we have drawn a unit circle, with centre at o(0,0) and radius 1 unit. we have labelled the points a, b, c, d and e corresponding to the angles below

∠aox = 60°,

∠box = 120°,

∠cox = 180°,

∠dox = 240°,

∠eox = 300°.

and the coordinates are a(0.5,1), b(-0.5,1), c(-1,0), d(-0.5,-1) and e(0.5,-1).

thus, the answer is complete.
