Beta particles are identical to Multiple Choice protons. helium atoms. hydrogen atoms. helium nuclei.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vesna [10]2 years ago
4 0

Correct option:

Beta particles are identical to "electrons".          

 

What are particle beams:

There are various types of particle beams, such as (alpha) and (beta) particles, neutron beams, etc. While β-particles are electrons released from a nucleus, helium nuclei made up of two protons and two neutrons are known as α-particles.

When certain radionuclides undergo a process known as beta-decay, high-energy, high-speed electrons (e-) or positrons (p+) are released from the nucleus.

An electron and a beta particle share the same mass and charge.

Beta radiation in high doses can burn the skin, and beta emitters are dangerous if they penetrate the body. Thin sheets of metal or plastic may be able to stop beta particles.

Note: Your question is incomplete, but most probably your full question also includes one more option "Electron".

Beta particles are identical to

Multiple Choice

1. protons.  2. helium atoms.  3. hydrogen atoms.  4. helium nuclei. 5. electrons.

A sample of a solid nonmetal is compared to a sample of a solid metal. Both samples have the same volume. What is the
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

STRUCTURE:

  • Metals have a crystalline structure, whereas non-metals possess amorphic structure.
  • At room temperature, metals are usually solid, except mercury and gallium which are in the liquid state. Conversely, non-metals can be found in solid or gaseous form, except Bromine which is the only non-metal that is present in liquid form.
  • Density is the ratio of mass to volume; metals have a higher density as compared to non-metals.
  • Metals look smooth and shiny, while non-metals usually appear dull.
  • When it comes to hardness, metals are generally hard substance, but it varies from substance to substance. Unlike non-metals is soft substance except diamond, which is the hardest substance on earth.

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES:

  • Metals support conduction of heat and electricity. Conversely, non-metals are insulators, and so they do not support conduction of heat and electricity.
  • Metals have a very high melting and boiling point. In contrast, non-metals are boiled and melted at a relatively low temperature.
  • In the outer shell, metals consist of 1 to 3 electrons, whereas non-metals consist of 4 to 8 electrons.

A student is asked to standardize a solution of barium hydroxide. He weighs out 0.978 g potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHC8H4O4,
Sav [38]

Answer:

(A) 0.129 M

(B) 0.237 M

Explanation:

(A) The reaction between potassium hydrogen phthalate and barium hydroxide is:

  • 2HA + Ba(OH)₂ → BaA₂ + 2H₂O

Where A⁻ is the respective anion of the monoprotic acid (KC₈H₄O₄⁻).

We <u>convert mass of phthalate to moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 0.978 g ÷ 156 g/mol = 9.27x10⁻³ mol = 9.27 mmol

Now we <u>convert mmol of HA to mmol of Ba(OH)₂</u>:

  • 9.27 mmol HA * \frac{1mmolBa(OH)_{2}}{2mmolHA} = 6.64 mmol Ba(OH)₂

Finally we calculate the molarity of the Ba(OH)₂ solution:

  • 6.64 mmol / 35.8 mL = 0.129 M

(B) The reaction between Ba(OH)₂ and HCl is:

  • 2HCl + Ba(OH)₂ → BaCl₂ + 2H₂O

So<u> the moles of HCl that reacted </u>are:

  • 17.1 mL * 0.129 M * \frac{2mmolHCl}{1mmolBa(OH)_2} = 4.41 mmol HCl

And the <u>molarity of the HCl solution is</u>:

  • 4.41 mmol / 18.6 mL = 0.237 M

one million atoms of a particular element have a mass of 1.99 ×10^-17 grams. how many moles of this element are there?
Marianna [84]
<span>(1.99x10^-17) x 1000000
= 1.99x10^-11 (1.99x10^-11) / (6.023x10^23)
 = 3.304001328x10^-35

Need help please I need to select one element for each following families on the periodic table
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

There are five Family on the periodic table that are alkali metals , Alkaline earth metals , transition metals , Halogens family and noble gas family.

1) In alkali metals, there are six elements are present and among all the elements Sodium metal should be selected. Because sodium metal is most abundant metal in the world.

  • uses of sodium are
  • sodium salt are common salt that added to the food to enhance the taste.
  • washing soda are made up of sodium salt which is used as water softener.
  • sodium salts are also used as buffer to maintain Ph.

2) In alkaline earth metal family, The magnesium element should be selected.

  • uses of magnesium are
  • since magnesium is a soft metal so it can burn easily therefore it is used in fire works.
  • magnesium is also important for proper growth and maintenance of bones.
  • Magnesium is light weight metal so it can used to make car seat , luggage and power tools etc.

3) In Halogens gas family , chlorine should be selected.

  • Uses of chlorine are
  • The chlorine is used in cleaning purpose as it act as bleaching agent.
  • Chlorine is also used to prepare the pesticides to removes pest in crops.
  • In refrigerators, the cold breeze is coming out is chlorine gas which are used to increase the shelf life of the plants.

4) In transition metals , copper metal should be choose.

  • Use of copper metal are
  • Copper is highly ductile metal so it drawn into wires and used in various electrical purpose.
  • The copper has anti corrosive properties so it can used in making kitchen utensils.
  • The copper has anti microbial property so it can used in packaging of food.

5) In noble gas elements, The helium gas should be selected

  • uses of helium gas are
  • It used as semiconductors.
  • It used in party balloons.
  • The helium is inert gas so it used to make optical fibers.

These are the daily life usage of all the elements of each family of the periodic table.
