Answer:

Heavy Snowfall

High Winds

Extremely Low Temperatures

Reasoning:

Lots of snow, kinda self explanatory

high winds are needed to carry the snow that fast

its has to be below freezing for snow to even form

Which isotope will spontaneously decay and emit particles with a charge of +2?

VikaD [51]

Answer: The correct option is 4.

Explanation: All the options will undergo some type of radioactive decay processes. There are 3 decay processes:

1) Alpha decay: It is a decay process in which alpha particle is released which has has a mass number of 4 and a charge of +2.

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

2) Beta-minus decay: It is a decay in which a beta particle is released. The beta particle released has a mass number of 0 and a charge of (-1).

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

3) Beta-plus decay: It is a decay process in which a positron is released. The positron released has a mass number of 0 and has a charge of +1.

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

For the given options:

Option 1: This nuclei will undergo beta-plus decay process to form $_{25}^{53}\textrm{Mn}$

$_{26}^{53}\textrm{Fe}\rightarrow _{25}^{53}\textrm{Mn}+_{+1}^0\beta$

Option 2: This nuclei will undergo beta-minus decay process to form $_{80}^{198}\textrm{Hg}$

$_{79}^{198}\textrm{Au}\rightarrow _{80}^{198}\textrm{Hg}+_{-1}^0\beta$

Option 3: This nuclei will undergo a beta minus decay process to form $_{56}^{137}\textrm{Ba}$

$_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}\rightarrow _{56}^{137}\textrm{Ba}+_{-1}^0\beta$

Option 4: This nuclei will undergo an alpha decay process to form $_{85}^{216}\textrm{At}$

$_{87}^{220}\textrm{Fr}\rightarrow _{85}^{216}\textrm{At}+_2^4\alpha$

Hence, the correct option is 4.

Which of the following statements explain why the van der Waals equation must be used to describe real gases? X. interactions be

8090 [49]

Answer:

Statements Y and Z.

Explanation:

The Van der Waals equation is the next one:

$nRT = (P + \frac{an^{2}}{V^{2}})(V -nb)$ (1)

The ideal gas law is the following:

$nRT = PV$ (2)

where n: is the moles of the gas, R: is the gas constant, T: is the temperature, P: is the measured pressure, V: is the volume of the container, and a and b: are measured constants for a specific gas.

As we can see from equation (1), the Van der Waals equation introduces two terms that correct the P and the V of the ideal gas equation (2), by the incorporation of the intermolecular interaction between the gases and the gases volume. The term an²/V² corrects the P of the ideal gas equation since the measured pressure is decreased by the attraction forces between the gases. The term nb corrects the V of the ideal gas equation, taking into account the volume occuppied by the gas in the total volume, which implies a reduction of the total space available for the gas molecules.

So, the correct statements are the Y and Z: the non-zero volumes of the gas particles effectively decrease the amount of "empty space" between them and the molecular attractions between gas particles decrease the pressure exerted by the gas.

Have a nice day!

How is sodium peroxide formed?

nordsb [41]

Answer:

Sodium peroxide can be prepared on a large scale by the reaction of metallicsodium with oxygen at 130–200 °C, a process that generates sodium oxide, which in a separate stage absorbs oxygen: 4 Na + O2 → 2 Na2O. The ozone oxidizes the sodium to form sodium peroxide.
