Chemistry
1 answer:
Mashcka [7]3 years ago
8 0
<span><span>1) Calculate the total number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) in the nuclide
<span>--> If the number of nucleons is even, there is a good chance it is stable.
</span></span><span><span>
2) Are there a magic number of protons or neutrons?
</span>--> 2,8,20,28,50,82,114 (protons), 126 (neutrons), 184 (neutrons) are particularly stable in nuclei.
</span><span>
3) Calculate the N/Z ratio.
<span>--> Use the belt of stability (Figure 1) to determine the best way to get from an unstable nucleus to a stable nucleus</span></span></span>

Why does increasing the number of trials increase confidence in the results of the experiment?
valkas [14]
<span>It rises confidence for the reason that the more times you conduct the similar experiment over and over should either demonstrate your hypothesis right and wrong and remove any random incidences that might touch your results. Meaning it permits to have a more accurate measure or conclusion.</span>

How are the colors distinguished from one another.​
madreJ [45]

Well, you see a certain color when a certain part of lightis reflected rather than and order by a material. For example, you see red because it was the only part of light that reflected.

Please tell me if that helped.

In order to compute mean, you have to add all values of the data set up and divide by the number of data values there are.

In this case, the total sum of all data values is: 81+88+69+65+87=390

The number of data values is 5

To compute mean: 390/5=78

The mean height of the corn stalks is 78cm (C)

Liquid butane, C4H10, is stored in cylinders to be used
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

  • <u>13.0kJ</u>

Explanation:

The<em> heat</em> to <em>vaporize</em> a l<em>iquid</em> is equal to the amount of liquid in moles multiplied by the specific <em>heat of vaporiztion</em> per mole.

First, calculate the number of moles in 35.5g of <em>butane</em>.

  • Molar mass of butane: 58.124 g/mol

  • Number of moles = mass in grams/molar mass

  • Number of moles = 35.5g / 58.124g/mol = 0.6107632mol

Now, calculate the heat to vaporize that amount of <em>liquid butane</em>:

  • Heat = number of moles × specific heat of vaporization

  • Heat = 0.6107632mol × 21.3kJ/mol = 13.0 kJ

The answer must be reported with 3 significant figures.

What type of element did fermi expect to find when uranium absorbed a neutron and then ejected a beta particle? what did they fi
ololo11 [35]

Answer: a)neptunium b) the element is unstable

Explanation:

a) 238 0 239 -1

U + n = Np e

92 1 93 0

b) it is an isotope of neptunium with half-lives less than 4.5 days, with most less than 50 minutes. It is therefore not stable that's why they where unable to identify it
