Be sure to show all work with units to be eligible to receive credit. 9. (7 pts) Using the information given, draw and label the mass spectrum for iridium, including percentages. Iridium is an element with two commonly occurring isotopes, one of which is Iridium-193 (percent abundance of 62.77%). Report the isotope masses on the plot to the nearest whole number. Percent Abundance (%) m/z (u) 10. (6 pts) Given that 1 formula unit of an XNO3 compound has a mass of 1.679x10-22 grams, what is element X? 11. (10 pts, 2 each) Fill in the blanks. A. Rank the atomic radii of the neutral atoms from least to greatest: Ca, Cl, P B. Rank the ionic radii of the ions from least to greatest: P3-, Ca2+, Cl- C. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that we cannot simultaneously know the exact and momentum of anything D. The abbreviated electron configuration for Tc3+ (Z = 43) is [Kr] E.

Be sure to show all work with units to be eligible to receive credit. 12. (9 pts) If you watched volleyball during the Summer Olympics this year, perhaps you were amazed by how fast the balls were flying through the air after being served (at a whopping 98.3 km/hr!!! which is about 61.1 mi/hr) Now that you’re a chemist, you know all things with mass have a De Broglie wavelength. kg ∙ m2 (Potentially useful info: 1 J is defined as 1 s2 ) What’s the de Broglie wavelength (in meters) of a regulation volleyball whose volume oz is 1.50x105 cm3 and density = 62.91m3 , immediately after being served at 98.3 km/hr? (Potentially useful info: 1.0000 kg = 35.274 oz) 13. (15 pts) Consider a perovskite, a mineral often used in solar cells, with the formula CaTiO3 (MW = 135.95 g/mol) for the following questions. A. (3 pts) How many oxygen atoms are in 12.05 picograms of this perovskite? PID: ________________ B.

(3 pts) In this perovskite, there are 3 O atoms. Using the diagram below, fill and label the energy-level diagram for a neutral oxygen atom. D. (3 pts) Draw the orbital corresponding to an electron in the highest subshell in the box provided. Include shading to represent phase if needed. E. (3 pts) Write a set of possible quantum numbers for an electron in the highest subshell n l ml ms PID: ________________ 14. (13 pts) In this problem we will compare the radiation absorbed by a human in a 4- hour flight (the time needed to fly from Atlanta to California) to the radiation absorbed from a standard chest X-Ray. A. (8 pts) If the wavelength of light used in a chest X-Ray has a wavelength of 5.23 nm and there are 3.90x1013 photons absorbed by a human body during this process, what is the total energy absorbed, in joules (J)? B. (5 pts) In an average 4-hour flight, the human body absorbs 3.00 microsieverts per hour. How many 4-hour flights would it take a human of average mass (62 kg) to absorb the same energy as absorbed during a chest X-Ray? For this problem assume the energy of a total chest X-Ray is 1.24x10-3 J. (Note: this is NOT the answer from part A). Report your answer to the nearest whole number.
