Answer:
Water has 18 grams per mole so 9 grams is 0.5 moles of water. There are 6.022* 10^23 molecules in a mole. Each water molecule contains one oxygen and two hydrogens.
Answer:
d. Radon-222
Explanation:
²²⁶₈₈Ra → ²²²₈₆Rn + ⁴₂He
Alpha particle is a helium nucleus with mass number 4 and atomic number 2. According to the law of conversation of mass, the sum of the mass number and atomic number must be equal on both side of the reaction.
Since the mass number of Ra is 226 and that of He is 4. The mass number of the unknown element must be 226 - 4 = 222.
Since the atomic number of Ra is 88 and that of He is 2. The atomic number of the unknown element must be 88 - 2 = 86.
Now looking in the periodic table Radon is the only element with atomic number 86.
Answer:
The uranium in the sample of the compound is radioactive
Explanation:
Some atoms can split on their own. Some split when bombarded by energetic particles. Such atoms are said to be radioactive.
Radioactivity is borne out of the drive of an atom to reach stabillity. Every atom have a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures stability of the nucleus. A nucleus with a stability ratio different from that which makes it stable will become unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with emissons of energetic particles.
Note: neutrons and protons dictates the mass of an atom. They are located in the nucleus which is the site for nuclear radioactive reactions.
When you immerse an ionic compound<span> in </span>water<span>, the ions are attracted to the </span>water <span>molecules, each of which carries a polar charge. If the attraction between the ions and the </span>water <span>molecules </span>is<span> great enough to break the bonds holding the ions together, the compound </span>dissolves<span>. </span>
You add the protons and the nuetrons together i think
