(b) (i) State the shape of the 2s orbital of a silicon
atom. (1)
, (c) Silicon has three stable isotopes.
A sample of silicon was found to have a relative atomic mass, Ar , of 28.11
due to the presence of only the three stable isotopes.
The abundance for two of the isotopes is given in the table.

Determine the relative isotopic mass of the third stable
isotope. You must show your working.

A double salt is a salt containing more than one cation or more than one
anion.
(a) (i) Give the reason why the term relative formula mass is used, rather
than relative molecular mass, when discussing K2Mg(SO4)2.6H2O. (1)
(iii) What is the relative formula mass of
K2Mg(SO4)2.6H2O? Use the Periodic Table as a
source of data. (1)
