Explanation / Answer

Ans. #14. Given,       content of 69Ga = 60.11 %

So, content of 71Ga = 100.000 % - % 69Ga = 100.000 % - 60.11% = 39.89 %

Let the atomic mass of 71Ga isotope = Y

Now,

Average atomic mass = (% 69Ga x its atomic mass) + (% 71Ga x its atomic mass)

Or, 69.7 g mol-1 = (60.11 % x 68.9256 g mol-1) + (39.89 % x Y)

Or, 69.7 g mol-1 = 41.43117816 g mol-1 + 0.3989 Y                               ; [ Y % = Y/ 100]

Or, 0.3989 Y = 69.7 g mol-1 - 41.43117816 g mol-1 = 28.26882184 g mol-1

Or, Y = 28.26882184 g mol-1 / 0.3989 = 70.869 g mol-1

Therefore, atomic mass (isotope mass) of 71Ga = 70.869 g mol-1 = 70.9 g/ mol

# Therefore, correct option is- C. 70.9

#15. Moles of selenium = Mass / Molar mass

                                    = 43.8 g/ (78.96 g/ mol)

                                    = 0.5547 mol

# Number of Se-atoms = Number of moles x Avogadro number

                                    = 0.5547 mol x (6.022 x 1023 atoms/ mol)

                                    = 3.34 x 1023 atoms

So, correct option is- D. 3.34 x 1023
