A scientist wants to perform a reaction in a vacuum chamber to control the experiment as much as possible and to prevent other variables from impacting the reaction. The scientist is trying to determine if the reaction is endothermic or exothermic and measure how much energy is absorbed or given off. Is this a sound approach? Why or why not? In three to five sentences, explain your reasoning. (4 points)

percent abundance for cu-63 can be shown as:

63 x + 65 (1-x) = 62.9296

65 - 62.9296 = 2 x

x = 1.035

thus, percent abundance for cu-63 is 1.035

percent abundance for cu-65 can be shown as:

63 x + 65 (1-x) = 64.9278

65 - 64.9278 = 2 x

x = 0.0361

thus, percent abundance for cu-63 is 0.0361

the mass spectrum of cu-63 showing the intense peak as, this isotope is found in nature more abundantly around 92.38 % in comparison to cu-65 which is found 62.58 % naturally
