The image shows a representative sample of 50 atoms of a fictious element, called lemonium (Le). Lemonium consists of three isotopes. The red spheres Le-19 Le-17 Le-15 are Le-19, the light blue spheres are Le-17, and the dark blue spheres are Le- 15. Determine the percent natural abundance of each of the three isotopes. Le-19: Le-17: % Le-15: Le-19 has an atomic mass of 19.0134 u, Le-17 has an atomic mass of 17.4629 u, and Le-15 has an atomic mass of 15.7384 u. Use the natural abundance and atomic mass of each isotope to determine the average atomic mass of Le. average atomic mass:

In the table below, there are descriptions of an experiment on samples of three different chemical elements. Decide whether the element is a metal or nonmetal, if you can. If there is not enough information to decide, choose can't decide in the third column. element description metal or nonmetal? Ometal 1 Element I is a shiny silvery-gray solid. A small cube of it is put into a ceramic crucible and heated strongly. It melts about not far above room nonmetal (can't decide) temperature. metal Element 2 is a shiny silvery-gray solid. A 5 cm x 5 cm square of it, only I mm thick, is pressed into a dish-shaped mold under high pressure. When the sample is removed, it has become lighter in color and now has the shape of the mold. nonmetal (can't decide) metal Element 3 is a hard dark-red solid. A 10. g cube of it is tapped lightly with a small hammer. One corner of the cube breaks off into 3-4 pieces and a collection of small bits. nonmetal (can't decide) 2 3
