Answer: The correct option is 3.

Explanation: Radioisotopes which emits alpha-particle are known as alpha-emitters. These radioisotopes undergo alpha-decay.

The radioisotopes which emits beta-particle (_{-1}^0\beta ) are known as beta-emitters. These radioisotopes undergo beta-minus decay. In this decay a neutron gets converted to a proton and an electron.

The radioisotopes which emits positron-particle (_{+1}^0\beta ) are known as positron-emitters. These radioisotopes undergo beta-plus decay. In this type of decay a proton gets converted to a neutron.

From the given options,

Option 1: All the three radioisotopes undergoes beta-minus decay.

Option 2: Cs-137 and Tc-99 radioisotopes undergo beta-minus decay.

Fr-220 is a radioisotope which undergoes alpha-decay.

Option 3: Radioisotope Kr-85 undergoes beta-minus decay.

_{36}^{85}\textrm{Kr}\rightarrow _{37}^{85}\textrm{Rb}+_{-1}^0\beta

Radioisotope Ne-19 undergoes positron decay.

_{10}^{19}\textrm{Ne}\rightarrow _{9}^{19}\textrm{F}+_{+1}^0\beta

Radioisotope Rn-222 undergoes alpha decay.

_{86}^{222}\textrm{Rn}\rightarrow _{84}^{218}\textrm{Po}+_{2}^4\alpha

Option 4: All the three radioisotopes undergoes beta-minus decay processes.

Hence, from the above information, the correct option is 3.

Virty [35]

Answer:

4.3.

Explanation:

  • Measurements that are close to the known value are said to be accurate, whereas measurements that are close to each other are said to be precise.
  • The most closest measurement to the known value is 4.3 g.
  • So, the right choice is: 4.3 g.

How many moles of aluminum oxide al2o3 are in a sample with a mass of 204.0
erik [133]

Answer:

2 moles

Explanation:

Let us first start by calculating the molecular mass of Al₂O₃.

The mass of a mole of any compound is called it's molar mass. 1 molar mass 6.02 X 10²³, or Avogadro's number, of compound entities.

Say, 1 mole of Al₂O₃ has 6.02 X 10²³ of Al₂O₃ molecules/atoms. It also has 2*6.02 X 10²³ number of Al atoms and 3*6.02 X 10²³ number of O atoms.

Molecular mass of Al : 26.981539 u

Molecular mass of O: 15.999 u

Therefore, molecular mass of Al₂O₃ is:

= (2*26.981539) + (3*15.999) u

= 101.960078 u

This can be approximated to 102 u.

1mole weighs 102 u

So, 2moles will weigh 2*102 = 204 u
