Neptunium-237 was the first isotope of a transuranium element to be discovered. the decay constant is /s. what is the half-life

The half-life in years of Neptunium-237 which was the first isotope is 2.1 10^{6} years.

Neptunium is most stable and Neptunium-237 is undergoes alpha decay, it means Neptunium-237 is decays by the emission of alpha particles . Seven alpha particles is emitted during decay of  Neptunium-237.  Neptunium-237 is radioactive actinide  elements and first  transuranium element.

The transuranium synthesis process involves creating a transuranium element through the transmutation process . The transmutation process  is the process of creating heavy elements from light elements. Hence the process is the transmutation of light elements. There are two types: artificial and natural transmutation.

Generally how does the first ionization energy vary as the atomic number increases going across a period
Vlad1618 [11]

Across a period I.E increases progressively from left to right

Explanation:

The trend of the first ionization energy is such that across a period I.E increases from left to right due to the decreasing  atomic radii caused by the increasing nuclear charge. This not compensated for by successive electronic shells.

  • Ionization energy is a measure of the readiness of an atom to lose an electron.
  • The lower the value, the easier it is for an atom to lose an electron.
  • Elements in group I tend to lose their electrons more readily whereas the halogens hold most tightly to them.
  • The first ionization energy is the energy needed to remove the most loosely bonded electron of an atom in the gaseous phase.

II. Binding Forces A. Write a brief, one or two sentence, description of each binding force listed below. 1. London dispersion f
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

All description is given in explanation.

Explanation:

Van der Waals forces:

It is the general term used to describe the attraction or repulsion between the molecules. Vander waals force consist of two types of forces:

1.  London dispersion forces

2.  Dipole-dipole forces

1. London dispersion forces:

These are the weakest intermolecular forces. These are the temporary because when the electrons of atoms come close together they create temporary dipole, one end of an atom where the electronic density is high is create negative pole while the other becomes positive . These forces are also called induce dipole- induce dipole interaction.

2.  Dipole-dipole forces:

These are attractive forces , present between the molecules that are permanently polar. They are present between the positive end of one polar molecules and the negative end of the other polar molecule.

Hydrogen bonding:

It is the electrostatic attraction present between the atoms which are chemically bonded. The one atom is hydrogen while the other electronegative atoms are oxygen, nitrogen or flourine. This is weaker than covalent and ionic bond.

Ionic bond or electrostatic attraction:

It is the electrostatic attraction present between the oppositely charged ions. This is formed when an atom loses its electron and create positive charge and other atom accept its electron and create negative charge.

Hydrophobic interaction:

It is the interaction between the water and hydrophobic material. The hydrophobic materials are long chain carbon containing compound. These or insoluble in water.

Covalent bond:

These compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms of same elements are between the different element's atoms. The covalent bond is less stronger than ionic bond so require less energy to break as compared to the energy require to break the ionic bond.
