plz answer fast Which is not a crystalline allotrope of carbon? Select one: a. soot b. diamond c. graphite
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

graphite

Explanation:

Graphite is opaque, a very good lubricant, a good conductor of electricity, and a thermal insulator. Allotropes of carbon are not limited to diamond and graphite, but also include buckyballs (fullerenes), amorphous carbon, glassy carbon, carbon nanofoam, nanotubes, and others.

An isotope has a half-life of 10 minutes. after 20 minutes, what percentage of the original nuclei remain?
Elena-2011 [213]
To solve this, we can use two equations.
t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ  
   
where, t1/2 is half-life and λ is the decay constant.

t1/2 = 10 min = 0.693 / λ

Hence, λ = 0.693 / 10 min              -         (1)

Nt = Nο e∧(-λt)    
                
Nt = amount of atoms at t =t time
Nο= initial amount of atoms
t = time taken

by rearranging the equation,
Nt/Nο = e∧(-λt)                  -  (2)

From (1) and (2),

Nt/Nο = e∧(-(0.693 / 10 min) x 20 min) 
Nt/Nο = 0.2500

Percentage of remaining nuclei = (nuclei at t time / initial nuclei) x 100%
                                                     
= (Nt/Nο ) x 100%
                                                      = 0.2500 x 100%
                                                      = 25.00%

Hence, Percentage of remaining nuclei is 25.00%

Consider these elements: N, Mg, O, F, Al. a. Write the electron configuration for each element. b. Arrange the elements in order
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

N- 1s2 2s2 2p3

Mg- 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2

O- 1s2 2s2 2p4

F- 1s2 2s2 2p5

Al-1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

Explanation:

Order of decreasing atomic radius

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Order of increasing ionization energy

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Reason:

Atomic radius decreases with increase in nonmetallic character. Looking at the electronic configurations, as effective nuclear charge increases, the atom becomes smaller and the attractive force between the nucleus and the outermost electrons increases. Hence, the radius of the atom decreases and ionization energy increases. Note that the addition of more orbital electrons implies addition of more nuclear charge since the both must exactly balance for the atom to remain electrically neutral. The more the electrons in the outermost shell, the higher the first ionization energy.

Which of the following are lost or gained during a nuclear reaction? (5 points)
jeyben [28]

D

Nuclear reaction involves the nuclei of atoms. The nucleus can either split (as is the case with fission) of fuse as is the case with nuclear fusion. Remember the main particles in the nucleus are protons and neutrons.

Explanation:

In nuclear fission, atomic nuclei split into lighter atoms through loss of protons and neutrons (such as through loos of a beta particles - 2 protons and 2 neutrons). In the case of fusion, two atomic nuclei fuse under pressure (hence adding neutrons and protons) to create heavier atoms (2 hydrogens can fuse to form a helium). Electrons are not involved in nuclear reactions. Electrons are mainly involved in chemical reactions.
