The parent element 247 95 am decays by beta decay which daughter element will formn

1 answer:

6 0

Atomic mass of the parent element =247,
atomic number of the parent element = 95

In the process of β-decay electron leaves the nucleus, so instead of one neutron we get one proton.

Mass of proton≈mass of neutron,
so atomic mass will not change.

Charge of proton =+1, and charge of neutron = 0.
So, we will get atomic number increased by one.

New element (daughter) will have
atomic mass = 247,
and atomic number= 95+1=96

Number 95 - Am (parent),
number 96 - Cm(daughter),

So, from Am-247 we will get Cm-247.

What are the roles of producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers for the trophic levels in the energy

Nesterboy [21]

This question is more for Biology than Chemistry, but the role of producers is to make energy (food) to be consumed. In a pyramid diagram, the producers would be at the bottom. Now going up the pyramid, the primary conumers are the first to consume producers and obtain energy from them. As you go up the pyramid, the secondary consumers will consume the primary consumers as a way to obtain energy, and the same goes for tertiary consumers towards secondaries.

As you go up the energy pyramid, you will notice a trend that there is less energy being obtained from each consumer. In other words, the producers will ALWAYS have more energy than the tertiary consumers.

I hope this answers your question.

Answer:

0.79 g

Explanation:

Let's introduce a strategy needed to solve any similar problem like this:

Apply the mass conservation law (assuming that this reaction goes 100 % to completion): the total mass of the reactants should be equal to the total mass of the products.

Based on the mass conservation law, we need to identify the reactants first. Our only reactant is sodium bicarbonate, so the total mass of the reactants is:

$m_r=m_{NaHCO_3}=2.36 g$
