Suppose that three isotopes of element X occur in nature as follows: The relative atomic mass of the naturally occurring mixture of element X is

107.5 amu

Explanation:

             X105              105                         30                0.30             31.5

             X100              100                         10                 0.10             10.0

                                                      ∑ atm mass contributions      =    107.5 amu*

what is the volume occupied by 40 grams of argon gas (ar) at standard conditions? what volume, in liters, is occupied by 1.5 x 1023 

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
