the stability of the radioactive element

Explanation:

The stability of a radioactive element can influence the rate of nuclear decay reaction. Pressure, temperature and concentration only affects chemical changes. These factors would not have any effect on radioactive decay of an element.

  • Every atomic nucleus have a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures the stability of the nucleus.
  • Any nucleus that deviates from the stability ratio will continue to split until it achieves stability.
  • The more unstable a nucleus is, the faster it decays.
  • This is the basis of radioactive decay of elements.

The atomic radius of main group elements generally increases down a group because
Pachacha [2.7K]

The atomic radius of main group elements generally increases down a group because as there are more electrons they are farther away from the nucleus and the electrons closer to the nucleus shield the outer electrons from the protons for attraction.

An aqueous solution containing 17.5 g of an unknown molecular (nonelectrolyte) compound in 100.0 g of water has a freezing point
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

molar mass = 180.833 g/mol

Explanation:

  • mass sln = mass solute + mass solvent

∴  solute: unknown molecular (nonelectrolyte)

∴ solvent: water

∴ mass solute = 17.5 g

∴ mass solvent =  100.0 g = 0.1 Kg

⇒ mass sln = 117.5 g

freezing point:

  • ΔTc = - Kc×m

∴ ΔTc = -1.8 °C

∴ Kc H2O = 1.86 °C.Kg/mol

∴ m: molality (mol solute/Kg solvent)

⇒ m = ( - 1.8 °C)/( - 1.86 °C.Kg/mol)

⇒ m = 0.9677 mol solute/Kg solvent

  • molar mass (Mw) [=] g/mol

∴ mol solute = ( m )×(Kg solvent)

⇒ mol solute = ( 0.9677 mol/Kg) × ( 0.100 Kg H2O )

⇒ mol solute = 0.09677 mol

⇒ Mw solute = ( 17.5 g ) / ( 0.09677 mol )

⇒ Mw solute = 180.833 g/mol

Problem 12.002 the molar analysis of a gas mixture at 30°c, 2 bar is 40% n2, 50% co2, 10% ch4. determine
andreev551 [17]
The problem is incomplete. However, there can only be two probable questions for this problem. First, you can be asked the individual partial pressures of each gas. Second, you can be asked the volume occupied by each gas. I can answer both cases for you.

1.

Let's assume ideal gas.
Pressure for N₂: 2 bar*0.4 = 0.8 bar
Pressure for CO₂: 2 bar*0.5 = 1 bar
Pressure for CH₄: 2 bar*0.1 = 0.2 bar

2. For the volume, let's find the total volume first.

V = nRT/P = (1 mol)(8.314 J/mol-K)(30 +273 K)/(2 bar*10⁵ Pa/1 bar)
V = 0.0126 m³
Hence,
Volume for N₂: 0.0126 bar*0.4 = 0.00504 m³
Volume for CO₂: 0.0126*0.5 = 0.0063 m³
Volume for CH₄: 0.0126*0.1 = 0.00126 m³
