The radioactive waste can be stored for decay and then safely released into the environment is N-16.

<h3>What are the types of decay?</h3>

Decays can be of three types: alpha, beta and gamma. Each of them corresponds to a different radioactive particle, which changes the nucleus of the emitting atom according to its characteristics.

Nitrogen 16 ( 16 N ) is the unstable isotope of nitrogen whose nucleus consists of 7 protons and 9 neutrons. Its period is 7.13 s.

If you start with 227.8 grams of iron and 128 grams of oxygen to produce iron oxide, what is the limiting reagent?
agasfer [191]

The balanced chemical equation between iron and oxygen to produce iron (III) oxide is,

4Fe(s) + 3O_{2}(g) ---> 2Fe_{2}O_{3}(s)

Mass of Fe = 227.8 g

Moles of Fe = 227.8 g Fe * \frac{1 mol Fe}{55.85 g Fe} = 4.079 mol Fe

Mass of oxygen = 128 g

Moles of O_{2} = 128 g O_{2}*\frac{1 mol O_{2}}{32 g O_{2}}= 4mol O_{2}

Calculating the limiting reactant: The reactant that produces the least amount of product will be the limiting reactant.

Mass of iron (III) oxide produced from Iron = 4.079 mol Fe * \frac{2 mol Fe_{2}O_{3}}{4 mol Fe}  *\frac{159.69 g Fe_{2}O_{3}}{1 mol Fe_{2}O_{3}} = 325.7 g Fe_{2}O_{3}

Mass of iron (III) oxide produced from oxygen=4 mol O_{2}*\frac{2 molFe_{2}O_{3}}{3 mol O_{2}}*\frac{159.69 g Fe_{2}O_{3}}{1 mol Fe_{2}O_{3}} =  425.84 g Fe_{2}O_{3}

Iron (Fe) produces the least amount of the product iron (III) oxide. So, Fe is the limiting reactant.

2C8H18 (1) + 2502 (g) --&gt; 16CO2 (g) + 18H2O (g)
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

One gallon of octane produces approximately 7000 L of carbon dioxide.

Note:

I believe that the mass of octane should have been given as 2661 g. However, I understand that your instructor probably gave you this problem, so I will use 4000 g for the approximate mass of one gallon of octane. You can rework the problem on your own, substituting the correct masses of octane if you wish.

Step1. You must first determine the number of moles that are in 4000 g of octane, using the molar mass of octane. Step 2. Then you must determine the number of moles of carbon dioxide that can be produced by that number of moles of octane, based on the mole ratio between octane and carbon dioxide in the balanced equation. Step 3. Then use the ideal gas law to determine the volume in liters of carbon dioxide that can be formed.

A hot air ballon will rise in air because:
solmaris [256]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Hot air is a lot less dense for a few reasons. Hot air essentially means the particles have more kinetic energy, and move around a lot more. Cold air is dense because the particles move a lot less, have less energy, and are closer together.
