The littoral zone of a lake is the area closest to the shore. It has very little biological activity but includes a lot of oxygen. The water in the lake's littoral zone is freshwater, free of living organisms such as plants and fish.
The daughter isotope : Radon-222 (Rn-222).
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an alpha decay
Required
The daughter nuclide
Solution
Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles ₀γ⁰
- positron particles ₁e⁰
- neutron ₀n¹
The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same
Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra
Alpha particles : ₂⁴He
So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴ , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4
The reaction :
₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn
Answer:
You can do that yourself, but there's a example question below. And, if for example, I just answer your question and you don't even try to answer. it dosent matter.
Explanation:Force=Mass x Acceleration -or- F=ma
where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. The units are Newtons (N) for force, kilograms (kg) for mass, and meters per second squared (m/s2) for acceleration. The other forms of the equation can be used to solve for mass or acceleration.
m=F/a and a=F/m Example:
Engineers at the Johnson Space Center must determine the net force needed for a rocket to achieve an acceleration of 70 m/s2. If the mass of the rocket is 45,000 kg, how much net force must the rocket develop?
Using Newton's second law, F=ma
F=(45,000 kg)(70 m/s2) = 3,150,000 kg m/s2 F=3,150,000 N Note that the units kg m/s2 and newtons are equivalent; that is, 1 kg m/s2
<h3>Answer:</h3>
7.57 × 10⁻²² g of F
<h3>Solution:</h3>
Data Given:
Number of Molecules = 8
M.Mass of BF₃ = 67.82 g.mol⁻¹
Mass of Fluorine atoms = ?
Step 1: Calculate Moles of BF₃
Moles = Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹
Putting value,
Moles = 8 Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹
Moles = 1.33 × 10⁻²³ mol
Step 2: Calculate Mass of BF₃:
Moles = Mass ÷ M.Mass
Solving for Mass,
Mass = Moles × M.Mass
Putting values,
Mass = 1.33 × 10⁻²³ mol × 67.82 g.mol⁻¹
Mass = 9.0 × 10⁻²² g
Step 3: Calculate Mass of Fluorine Atoms:
As,
67.82 g BF₃ contains = 57 g of F
So,
9.0 × 10⁻²² g will contain = X g of F
Solving for X,
X = (9.0 × 10⁻²² g × 57 g) ÷ 67.82 g
X = 7.57 × 10⁻²² g of F
