The answer is b. radon-222. The alpha decay means that it will emit an alpha particle when decays. The alpha particle has two protons and two neutrons. So Radium(88) minus two protons will become Radon(86). And the atomic mass will become 226-4=222.

Answer:

21091mg of aspirin the person need to consume

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the mass of the person in kg. Knowing the lethal dose for aspirin is 400mg/kg of person, we can find the amount of aspirin that the person need to consume to get a lethal dose:

<em>Mass person:</em>

116lb * (1kg / 2.2lb) = 52.7kg

<em>Lethal dose:</em>

52.7kg * (400mg / kg) =

<h3>21091mg of aspirin the person need to consume</h3>

Why was the line of best fit method used to determine the experimental value of absolute zero?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>Because the x-intercet of the graph represents volume zero, which indicates the minimum possible temperature or absolute zero.</em></u>

Explanation:

Charle's Law for ideal gases states that, at constant pressure, the <em>temperature</em> and the <em>volume</em> of a sample of gas are protortional.

                       \dfrac{V}{T}=k\\\\V=kT

That means that the graph of the relationship between Temperature, in Kelivn, and Volume is a line, which passes through the origin.

When you work with Temperature in Celsius, and the temperature is placed on the x-axis, the line is shifted to the left  273.15ºC.

Meaning that the Volume at 273.15ºC is zero.

You cannot reach such low temperatures in an experiment, and also, volume zero is not real.

Nevertheless, you can draw the line of best fit and extend it until the x-axis (corresponding to a theoretical volume equal to zero), and read the corresponding temperature.

Subject to the experimental errors, and the fact that the real gases are not ideal, the temperature that you read on the x-axis is the minimum possible temperature (<em>absolute zero</em>) as the minimum possible volume is zero.

Enter your answer in the provided box. Find the pH of a buffer that consists of 0.34 M HBrO and 0.89 M KBrO (PK, of HBrO = 8.64)
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer : The  pH of buffer is 9.06.

Explanation : Given,

pK_a=8.64

Concentration of HBrO = 0.34 M

Concentration of KBrO = 0.89 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of buffer.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[KBrO]}{[HBrO]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=8.64+\log (\frac{0.89}{0.34})

pH=9.06

Therefore, the pH of buffer is 9.06.
