Chemistry

Answer:

The nucleus contains the majority of an atom's mass because protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons, whereas electrons occupy almost all of an atom's volume. The diameter of an atom is on the order of 10−10 m, whereas the diameter of the nucleus is roughly 10−15 m—about 100,000 times smaller.

Explanation:

hope it helps you

. If the half-life of cesium-133 is 30 years, how much of a 600g sample of cesium-133 will be left after
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Caesium (55Cs) has 40 known isotopes, making it, along with barium and mercury, one of the elements with the most isotopes. The atomic masses of these isotopes range from 112 to 151. Only one isotope, 133Cs, is stable. The longest-lived radioisotopes are 135Cs with a half-life of 2.3 million years, ... It constitutes most of the radioactivity still left from the Chernobyl accident ...

2Li + H2SO4=Li2SO4 + H2 How many liters of hydrogen gas, H2 at STP can be produced from 3.0 moles of Li? The molar volume of a g
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

volume of H_2=33.6 litre

Explanation:

Firstly balance the given chemical equation,

2Li + H_2SO_4=Li_2SO_4 + H_2

From the given balance equation it is clearly that,

2 mole of Li gives  1 mole of H2 gas

2 mole Li⇔1 mole H_2

1 mole Li⇔0.5 mole H_2

3 mole Li⇔1.5 mole H_2

hence

3 mole of Li will give 1.5 mole H2 gas

therefore volume of gas produced from 3 mole Li at STP = 1.5\times22.4 \frac{L}{mol}

volume of H2=33.6 litre

An object with a mass of 15kg is accelerating at 10m/s2. What is the force carried by this object
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: 150N

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the force will be the mass multiplied by the acceleration. In this case, mass = 15kg and acceleration = 10m/s². Therefore, force will be:

= Mass × Acceleration

= 15 × 10

= 150N

The force is 150Newton
