What are 3 general rules to predict the stability of an isotope

1 answer:

8 0

1) Calculate the total number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) in the nuclide
--> If the number of nucleons is even, there is a good chance it is stable.

2) Are there a magic number of protons or neutrons?
--> 2,8,20,28,50,82,114 (protons), 126 (neutrons), 184 (neutrons) are particularly stable in nuclei.

3) Calculate the N/Z ratio.
--> Use the belt of stability (Figure 1) to determine the best way to get from an unstable nucleus to a stable nucleus

This page has all of the required homework for the material covered in the third exam of the first semester of General Chemistry. The textbook associated with this homework is CHEMISTRY The Central Science by Brown, LeMay, et.al. The last edition I required students to buy was the 12th edition (CHEMISTRY The Central Science, 12th ed. by Brown, LeMay, Bursten, Murphy and Woodward), but any edition of this text will do for this course.

Note: You are expected to go to the end of chapter problems in your textbook, find similar questions, and work out those problems as well. This is just the required list of problems for quiz purposes. You should also study the Exercises within the chapters. The exercises are worked out examples of the questions at the back of the chapter. The study guide also has worked out examples.

These are bare-bones questions. The textbook questions will have additional information that may be useful and that connects the problems to real life applications, many of them in biology.

Answer:

This question contains a lot of subsections. Please find the variables to each question below

Explanation:

Hypothesis is a testable explanation to a scientific question. It aims at proffering a testable solution to an observed problem. It usually goes in an IF, THEN format.

Dependent variable is the variable being measured in an experiment, while the independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the experimenter.

The control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment while constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in the experiment.

Based on this explanation, find the answers to the hypothesis, independent variable, dependent variable, constant, and control groups to each question.

2. Dependent variable: How easy it is to remember

Independent variable: Color of the text

Control: Group given Black and White text to read

Constants: Same text

3. Hypothesis: If the temperature is increased, THEN the speed of ants increases or move faster

Independent variable: TEMPERATURE

Dependent variable: SPEED OF ANTS

Control: Ants placed in room temperature

Constants: SAME KIND OF ANTS

4. Hypothesis: IF the pH of the soil is acidic or alkaline, THEN the growth of strawberries will be inhibited

Independent variable: pH of soil

Dependent variable: Growth of strawberries

Control: Strawberries grown in a Neutral pH soil

Constants: Same type of plants (strawberries)

5. Hypothesis: IF caffeine is taken, then the blood pressure will be increased or raised.

Independent variable: CAFFEINE

Dependent variable: BLOOD PRESSURE

Control: Group given no caffeine

Constants: Same amount of caffeine

6. Hypothesis: IF music is played, THEN the heart rate increases

Independent variable: MUSIC

Dependent variable: HEART RATE

Control: Groups placed where no music is played

Constants: Same type of music, same time music runs for etc.

7. Hypothesis: IF bleach is present/used, THEN bacteria will die

Independent variable: Bleach

Dependent variable: Death of bacteria

Control: Bacteria given no bleach

Constants: Same species of bacteria, Same type of bleach

For the reaction H₂O(g) + Cl₂O(g) → 2HClO(g), you know ΔS°rxn and S° of HClO(g) and of H₂O(g). Write an expression that can be u

expeople1 [14]

The expression for S°(Cl2O)(g) is given by ,

S°(Cl2O)(g) = 2×S°(HClO)(g) - S°(H2O)(g) - ΔS°rxn

Given ,

The balanced chemical equation is ,

H2O (g) + Cl2O (g) → 2HClO (g)

The general standard entropy of the reaction is given by ,

ΔS°rxn = sum of the S°(Product ) - sum of the S°(reactants )

ΔS°rxn = ΣmS°products - ΣnS°reactants

where , m and n are the stoichiometry coefficients of each product and reactants .

Thus , the standard entropy of the given reaction is given by ,

ΔS°rxn = 2×S° (HClO)(g) - [ S°(H2O)(g) + S°(Cl2O)(g) ]

ΔS°rxn = 2×S° (HClO)(g) - S°(H2O)(g) - S°(Cl2O)(g)

Thus the S°(Cl2O) is given by ,

S°(Cl2O)(g) = 2×S°(HClO)(g) - S°(H2O)(g) - ΔS°rxn

Hence the expression for the standard entropy of Cl2O (g) is given by ,

S°(Cl2O)(g) = 2×S°(HClO)(g) - S°(H2O)(g) - ΔS°rxn

<h3>What is a balance chemical reaction ?</h3>

A balanced chemical reaction is a type of reaction which include the reactants and products in same amount i.e. the no of mole on both side of the reaction is remains same or balanced .
