The balanced nuclear equations for the following:(a) β⁻ decay of silicon-32 is (27,14)Si -> (0,-1)beta + (27,15)P

<h3>What is balanced nuclear equation?</h3>

A nuclear reaction is generally expressed by a nuclear equation, which has the general form, where T is the target nucleus, B is the bombarding particle, R is the residual product nucleus, and E is the ejected particle, and Ai and Zi (where I = 1, 2, 3, 4) are the mass number and atomic number, respectively. Finding a well balanced equation is critical for understanding nuclear reactions. Balanced nuclear equations provide excellent information about the energy released in nuclear reactions. Balancing the nuclear equation requires equating the total atomic number as well as the total mass number before and after the reaction using the rules of atomic number and mass number conservation in a nuclear reaction.

Consider 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O. To produce 1.2 g water, how many grams of H2 are required? Report to the correct number of significant

Elden [556K]

Answer:

0.133 mol (corrected to 3 sig.fig)

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of H=1.0, and O=16.0,

no. of moles = mass / molar mass

so no. of moles of H2O produced = 1.2 / (1.0x2+16.0)

= 0.0666666 mol

From the equation, the mole ratio of H2:H2O = 2:2 = 1:1,

meaning every 1 mole of H2 reacted gives out 1 mole of water.

So, the no, of moles of H2 required should equal to the no, of moles of H2O produced, which is also 0.0666666 moles.

mass = no. of moles x molar mass

hence,

mass of H2 required = 0.066666666 x (1.0x2)

= 0.133 mol (corrected to 3 sig.fig)

What is the mass of 1.71 ✕ 1023 molecules of h2so4?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The equation for calculating a mass is as follows:

m=n×M

Molar mass (M) we can determine from Ar that can read in a periodical table, and a number of moles we can calculate from the available date for N:

n(H2SO4)=N/NA

n(H2SO4)= 1.7×10²³ / 6 × 10²³

n(H2SO4)= 0.3 mole

Now we can calculate a mass of H2SO4:

m(H2SO4) = n×M = 0.3 × 98 = 27.8 g

Verizon [17]

Answer:

a) $10 mg NO_3^-/L$

b) $1.61*10^{-4}mol NO_3^-/L$

c) $2.26 mg N/L$

Carbon: $C=26.64 \frac{mg C}{L}$

Explanation:

<u>Nitrate</u>

First of all, is important to know that:

$1 ppm=1 mg/L$

a) 10 ppm of nitrate ( $NO_3^-$ ) is equal to $10 mg NO_3^-/L$

b) The molecular weight of nitrate is $62 g NO_3^-/mol$

$10 mg NO_3^-/L=0.01 g NO_3^-/L$

$\frac{0.01 g NO_3^-/L}{62 g NO_3^-/mol}=1.61*10^{-4} mol NO_3^-/L$

c) Nitrate has 14 mg of N per 62 mg of NO3

$10 mg NO_3^-/L*\frac{14 mg N}{62 mg NO_3^-}=2.26 mg N/L$

<u>Carbon</u>

Carbonate has 12 mg of C per 60 mg of $CO_3^{-2}$

Bicarbonate has 12 mg of C per 61 mg of $HCO_3^{-}$

$C=24 \frac{mg CO_3^{-2}}{L}*\frac{12 mg C}{60 mg CO_3^{-2}}+111 \frac{mg HCO_3^{-}}{L}*\frac{12 mg C}{61 mg HCO_3^{-}}$

$C=26.64 \frac{mg C}{L}$

Is benzene saturated or unsaturated?

inysia [295]

Answer:

Benzene shows that it is actually unsaturated because it adds hydrogen or chlorine, although only when allowed to react under very vigorous conditions (higher temperature or pressure) compared to those required for alkenes and alkynes.
