MArishka [77]3 years ago

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.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

A small still is separating propane and butane at 135 °C, and initially contains 10 kg moles of a mixture whose composition is x = 0.3 (x = mole fraction butane). Additional mixture (x = 0.3) is fed at the rate of 5 kg mole/hr. The total volume of the liquid in the still is constant, and the concentration of the vapor from the still (xp) is related to x, as follows: Xp = How long will it take for X, to change from 0.3 to 0.35.

The list of options to answer this question is:

A.kinectic energy is transformed into thermal energy.

B.electrical energy is transformed into potential energy.

C.potential energy is transformed into kinectic energy.

D.mechanical energy is transformed into chemical energy.

The answer is the option A. A.kinectic energy is transformed into thermal energy.

As you know energy cannot be lost but transformed.

When friction force acts over the tyres it increases the speed of the particles in the tyres which is thermal energy, this thermal energy increase comes from kinetic energy loss.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

The outside temperature is -45.8°C

Explanation:

When a gas keeps on constant its moles and its pressure, we can assume that volume will be increased or decreased as the T° (absolute T° in K).

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

2.95L/298K = 2.25L / T2

(2.95L/298K ) . T2 = 2.25L

T2 = 2.25L . 298K / 2.95L

T2 = 227.2K

T°K - 273 = T°C

227.2K - 273 = -45.8°C
