Hey there!
A half-life means after a certain amount of time, half of that substance will be gone/changed after that time.
There are 3 half lives in 11.46 days because 11.46 ÷ 3.82 = 3.
So, we divide the 3mg sample in half 3 times.
3 ÷ 2 = 1.5
1.5 ÷ 2 = 0.75
0.75 ÷ 2 = 0.375
There will be 0.375mg of radon-222 remaining after 11.46 days.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
₈₈Ra²²⁶ → ₈₆Rn²²² + ₂He⁴ + energy
Explanation:
Alpha beta and gamma radiations are the examples of ionizing radiations.
Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles having two proton and two neutrons. It is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom.
For example:
₈₈Ra²²⁶ → ₈₆Rn²²² + ₂He⁴ + energy
Properties of alpha radiation:
Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.
These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.
These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.
These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.
Another example:
₉₂U²³⁸ → ₉₀Th²³⁴ + ₂He⁴ + energy
Answer:
D
Explanation:
bothe cylinders are at room temperature so no cylinder has more themal energy. That crosses off the answers A B and C.
The rate law depicts the effect of concentration on reaction rate. Second mechanism 2NO(g) ⇄ N₂O₂(g) [fast], N₂O₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) [slow] is most reasonable. Thus, option b is correct.
<h3>What is rate law?</h3>
Rate law and equation give the rate at which the reaction takes place under the influence of the concentration of the reactants. The balanced chemical reaction is given as,
2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g)
The rate of the equation is given as,
rate = k [NO]² [O₂]
In a multi-step chemical reaction, the slowest step is the rate-determining step. The second mechanism is given as,
2NO (g) → N₂O₂ (g) [fast]
N₂O₂(g) +O₂(g) → 2NO₂ (g) [slow]
Rate is given as,
rate = k [N₂O₂] [O₂]
Therefore, option b. the second mechanism is the most reasonable.
