What is the role of gluons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
igor_vitrenko [27]2 years ago
8 0

The role of the gluons is to bind together the quarks that make up protons and neutrons. That is option D.

<h3>What are gluons?</h3>

Gluons are those particles found within an atom that are responsible for binding protons and neutrons together inside the nucleus of an atom.

The gluons are capable of binding the protons and neutrons together by holding together the quarks that makes up protons and neutrons.

These gluons are known to carry a color-anticolor charge which makes up the 9 types of gluons which include:

  • red anti-red,

  • red anti-blue,

  • red anti-green,

  • blue anti-red,

  • blue anti-blue,

  • blue anti-green,

  • green anti-red,

  • green anti-blue, and

  • green anti-green.

An atom is the smallest indivisible part of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.

The proton is the positive particle of an atom which is found within the nucleus.

The neutron is the particle that is found in the nucleus of an atom which doesn't have any charge.

Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid calcium carbonate (CaCO_3)
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

Explanation:

The decomposition reaction always make two compounds from one.

The products always have simpler chemical structure, originated from a determined compound. This can happens  spontaneously or by a third party.

A notable example of decomposition is hydrolysis. As for example the case of water, which decomposes and generates oxygen and hydrogen gas

2H₂O (l) → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

In this case, the calium carbonate decomposes into CaO and CO₂

These two, are the products of the decomposition.

Of course, the unique reactant is the Calcium Carbonate

The balanced equation is:

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

Which of the following has a polar covalent bond? b. Which of the following has a bond closest to the ionic end of the bond spec
Marizza181 [45]

Explanation:

<u>Polar covalent bonding is the type of the chemical bond in which the pair of the electrons is unequally shared between the two atoms.</u> As a result, the atom with higher value of electronegativity acquires a slightly negative charge and the atom with lower value of electronegativity acquires a slightly positive charge.

In the molecule of CH_3NH_2, the bond which is closest to ionic end of bond spectrum is <u>N-H bond</u> because the nitrogen atom is more electronegative than hydrogen and is ionic in nature.

In the molecule of CH_3CH_3, the bond which is closest to ionic end of bond spectrum is <u>no one</u> because there is not much difference between carbon and hydrogen for the bond to be said as ionic.

In the molecule of CH_3OH, the bond which is closest to ionic end of bond spectrum is <u>O-H bond</u> because the oxygen atom is more electronegative than hydrogen and is ionic in nature.

Calculate the concentrations of all species present in a 0.26 M solution of ethylammonium chloride (C2H5NH3Cl).
Alina [70]

Answer:

0.00000223

Explanation:

pKa for C2H5NH3+ = 10.7

pKw = 14.0

pKa + pKb = pKw

10.7 + pKb = 14.0

pKb = 14.0 - 10.7

pKb = 3.30

C2H5NH3Cl is a salt of ethylamine and HCl so it will dissolve in water to produce  C2H5NH3^+ + Cl^-

The base hydrolysis reaction:  C2H5NH3^+(aq) + H2O(l) <=> C2H5NH2(aq) + H3O^+(aq)

This reaction is described by Kb.

Kb = [C2H5NH2][H3O^+]/[C2H5NH3^+]

Let [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+] = x,

so [C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 - x

Kb = x^2/(0.26 - x) = 2.00 x 10^-11  

Let's solve for x. In this equation,  It is possible to solve without the use quadratic equation. So we can assume that 0.26 - x  is approximately equal to 0.26.  We won't know until we do the calculation.

We get:  x^2 + 2.00 x 10^-11x - 4.99 x 10^-12 = 0

With the use of a quadratic calculator.

x = 2.23 x 10^-6 M = [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+]

0.26 - x  is just 0.26 M in this problem because 2.23 x 10^-6 M is insignificant.

[C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 M = [Cl^-]

NOTE:

pH = -log [H3O^+] = -log(2.23 x 10^-6) = 5.65

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

Kb is the base dissociation constant

What is the maximum pressure at which solid CO2 (dry ice) can be converted into CO2 gas without melting?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The triple point of carbon dioxide is 5.11 atmosphere at -56.6 degree celsius . At pressure greater than 5.11 , solid carbon dioxide liquefies ,  as it is warmed. At pressure lesser than 5.11 atmosphere , it will go into gaseous state without liquefying . Excessive pressure helps liquification process.

So maximum pressure required is 5.11 atmosphere. Beyond this pressure , solid CO2 will liquify.
