Making repeated separations of the various substances in the pitchblende, Marie and Pierre used the Curie electrometer to identify the most radioactive fractions. They thus discovered that two fractions, one containing mostly bismuth and the other containing mostly barium, were strongly radioactive.

<h3>What was surprising about pitchblende?</h3>

Since it was no longer appropriate to call them “uranic rays,” Marie proposed a new name: “radioactivity.”

Even more surprising, Marie next found that a uranium ore called pitchblende contained two powerfully radioactive new elements: polonium, which she named for her native Poland, and radium.

<h3>Why is radium more radioactive than uranium?</h3>

It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.

What is the number of moles of solute in 250 mL of a 0.4 M solution?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

0,1 mol

Explanation:

We know that the formula of concentration is C= moles of solute/ volume  

0,4 M= moles of solute/ 250 mL

Convert mL to L      250 mL =0,25 L

0,4 M x 0,25 L= moles of solute

0,1 moles= moles of solute

Advantages and disadvantages of titration?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

What are the advantages of titration?

Titrimetric analysis commonly referred to as volumetric analysis offers distinct advantages over cumbersome gravimetric methods:

Speed of analysis.

Instantaneous completion of reactions.

Greater accuracy due to minimization of material loss involved in decanting, filtration, precipitation or similar operations.

Explanation:

Disadvantages

It is a destructive method often using up relatively large quantities of the substance being analysed.

It requires reactions to occur in a liquid phase, often the chemistry of interest will make this inappropriate.

It can produce significant amounts of chemical waste which has to be disposed of.

It has limited accuracy.
