Balance the following nuclear reactions

Chemistry

Answer:

1.) ⁴₂He

2.) ⁶₂He

3.) ²⁴²₉₄Pu

4.) ¹₀n

Explanation:

The superscript represents the mass number, which is the total amount of protons and neutrons in an element.

The subscript represents the atomic number, which is the total amount of protons in an element.

You can identify the element based on the atomic number. For instance, all atoms with a subscript/atomic number of 2 must always be helium (He). An element with an atomic number of 0 is represented by the symbol "n". The mass number and atomic numbers must be equal on both sides of the reaction.

1.) ¹₁H + ³₁H  → ⁴₂He

    -----> Mass Number: 1 + 3 = 4

    -----> Atomic Number: 1 + 1 = 2

2.) ⁹₄Be + ¹₁H → He + ⁶₂He

    -----> Standard helium (He) has a mass number of 4 and an atomic number of 2

    -----> Mass Number: 9 + 1 - 4 = 6

    -----> Atomic Number: 4 + 1 - 2 = 2

3.) ²³⁹₉₂U + ⁴₂He →  ²⁴²₉₄Pu + ¹₀n

    -----> Mass Number: 239 + 4 - 1 = 242

    -----> Atomic Number: 92 + 2 - 0 = 94

4.) ²⁷₁₃Al + ¹₀n → ²⁴₁₁Na + ⁴₂He

    -----> Mass Number: 24 + 4 - 27 = 1

    -----> Atomic Number: 11 + 2 - 13 = 0

The resulting daughter isotope that is formed when the atom astatine-213 undergoes alpha emission is: ​
bagirrra123 [75]
Radioactive decay (also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration or nuclear disintegration) is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Three of the most common types of decay are alpha decay (-decay), beta decay (-decay), and gamma decay (-decay), all of which involve emitting one or more particles or photons. The weak force is the mechanism that is responsible for beta decay, while the other two are governed by the usual electromagnetic and strong forces.[1]

Question 15 How many grams of NaCl are required to make 500.0 mL of a 1.500 M solution? 58.40 g 175.3 g 14.60 g 43.83 g
ExtremeBDS [4]
Hi!

To make 500 mL of a 1,500 M solution of NaCl you'll require 43,83 g

To calculate that, you will need to use a conversion factor to go from the volume of the 1,500 M solution to the required grams. For this conversion factor, you'll use the definition for Molar concentration (M=mol/L) and the molar mass of NaCl. The conversion factor is shown below:

gNaCl=500mLsol* \frac{1L}{1000 mL}* \frac{1,500 mol NaCl}{1Lsol}* \frac{58,4428 g NaCl}{1 mol NaCl} \\ =43,83gNaCl

Have a nice day!
