If we consider the reaction CH₃O⁻ + H₂O ⇌ CH₃OH + OH⁻ in the forward direction, the base in the reaction is CH₃O⁻

A compound can be acidic, basic or neutral in nature. Basicity of the compound is determined when it either releases hydroxide ions, donates electrons or else accepts the protons from a compound.

In the reaction CH₃O⁻ + H₂O ⇌ CH₃OH + OH⁻:

CH₃O⁻ accepts proton or [H+] ion to become CH₃OH. Thus, CH₃O⁻ is the base in the reaction

H₂O donate [H+] ion or proton, therefore H2O change into OH-. Thus, H₂O is an acid in the reaction.

For alpha decay to cause a loss in mass, such as that in the uranium 238 conversion to thorium 234, what must the atomic weight

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Explanation:

Reaction equation showing alpha decay in Uranium-238 is as follows.

$^{238}_{92}U \rightarrow ^{234}_{90}Th + ^{4}_{2}He$

It is known that an alpha particle is basically a helium nucleus and it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons.

Symbol of an alpha particle is $^{4}_{2}\alpha$ .

As atomic mass or weight is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Hence, the atomic weight of the alpha particle is (2 + 2) = 4.

What are two possible fates of stars larger than 8 sol

attashe74 [19]

Stars born larger than 8 solar masses usually retain enough mass to undergo core collapse, with the resulting shock wave producing a Type Ib supernova (spectra without Hydrogen or Silicon lines, with Helium lines), a Type Ic supernova (without Hydrogen or Helium or Silicon lines) or a Type II supernova

I hope it’s what you need
