First you need to know how many moles you would get from 165 g of carbon dioxide.
Carbon = 12
Oxygen 2 = 16 x 2 = 32
Total: 32 + 12 = 44
- Use proportions
1 mol CO2 x 1 mol CO2 44 g
---------------- = ---------- or ----------------- = ----------
44 g 165 x 165 g

165/44 = 3.75 moles CO2
- Last step is to multiply the amount of moles by Avagadros number, 6.02 x 10^23
3.75 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 2.25 x 10^24 molecules

- Keep in mind if your answer can be a little different than mind if you either round or keep the same numbers. I hope this Really Helps ! c:

<span>Here is the order of steps you take to figure out this question:
First you need to know how many moles you would get from 165 g of carbon dioxide. You do that by doing: 
Carbon = 12
Oxygen 2 = 16 x 2 = 32
Total: 32 + 12 = 44  

 -Next you have to use proportions
1 mol CO2 x 1 mol CO2 44 g
---------------- = ---------- or ----------------- = ----------
44 g 165 x 165 g

165/44 = 3.75 moles CO2  

 - Last step is to multiply the amount of moles by Avogadro's number, 6.02 x 10^23
3.75 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 2.25 x 10^24 molecules 

Hope this helped

Electric power is measured in watts (1 W = 1 J/s). About 95% of the power output of an incandescent bulb is converted to heat an
nlexa [21]

Answer:

9.430 * 10¹⁷ protons per second whill shine on the book from a 62 W bulb

Explanation:

To answer this question, first let's calculate the energy of a single photon with a wavelength (λ) of 504 nm:

E = hc/λ

Where h is Planck's constant (6.626*10⁻³⁴ J·s) and c is the speed of light (3*10⁸ m/s).

E = 6.626*10⁻³⁴ J·s * 3*10⁸ m/s ÷ (504*10⁻⁹m) = 3.944 * 10⁻¹⁹ J.

So now we can make the equivalency for this problem, that

<u>1 proton =  3.944 * 10⁻¹⁹ J</u>

Now we convert watts from J/s to proton/s:

1 \frac{J}{s}*\frac{1proton}{3.944*10^{-19}J}=2.535*10^{18} \frac{proton}{s} = 1 W

Solving the problem, a 62 W bulb converts 5% of its output into light, so:

  • 62 * 5/100 = 3.1 W

3.1 watts are equal to [ 2.535*10¹⁸ proton/s * 3.1 ] = 7.858 * 10¹⁸ proton/s

Of those protons per second, 12% will shine on the chemistry textbook, thus:

7.858 * 10¹⁸ proton/s * 12/100 = 9.430 * 10¹⁷ protons/s

What happens to isotopes that are unstable?
Lesechka [4]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are defined as the chemical species of the same element which differs in the number of neutrons. The isotopes which are unstable are known as radioactive isotope. A radioactive (unstable )isotope can undergo 3 decay process:

1. Alpha Decay: In this decay process, a larger nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The particle released has a charge of +2 and a mass of 4 units.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}Y+_2^4\alpha

2. Beta-minus decay: In this decay process, a neutron gets converted into a proton and an electron. the particle released during this process is a beta-particle.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta

3. Beta-plus decay: In this decay process, a protons gets converted into a neutron and electron-neutrino particle. The particle released during this process is a positron particle.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{+1}^0\beta

Isotopes which are unstable in nature can undergo these 3 decay processes.

A certain radioactive atom has 90 protons and 142 neutrons. If this atom undergoes alpha decay, what is the mass number of the d
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

228

Explanation:

alpha decay is removing alpha particle _2^{4}He

2 number of protons, 4 mass number = 2 protons + 2 neutrons

We have

      90 protons and 142 neutrons

<u>       - 2 protons         -  2 neutrons</u>

      88 protons         140 neutrons

Mass number of new (daughter) atom = 88 +140 = 228
