It is Iridium or Ir-31 is the closest answer I could find for you. The actual Iridium used is Ir-192.
Another problem was that Uranium/U is not the one used its Radium so that can not be it.
And Europium is used for helping with curing brain tumors but only in trace amounts

Write a mechanism for the esterification of propanoic acid with 18O-labeled ethanol. Show clearly the fate of the 18O label. (b)
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

See explanation and images attached

Explanation:

a) In the mechanism for the acid catalysed esterification of propanoic acid using ethanol, we can see that the first step is the protonation of the acid followed by nucleophillic attack of the alcohol. Loss of water and consequent deprotonation regenerates the acid catalyst. We can see the fate of the 18O labelled ethanol in the mechanism shown.

b)  In the second mechanism, an unnamed ester is hydrolysed using an acid catalyst. The attack of the acid and subsequent nucleophillic attack of water labelled with 18O leads to the incorporation of this 18O into the product acid as shown in the mechanism attached to this answer.

How much energy, in joules, does 150.0 g of water with an initial temperature of 25 C need to absorb be raised to a final temper
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

31395 J

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of water = 150 g

Initial temperature = 25 °C

Final temperature = 75 °C

Energy absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

q = m . c . ΔT

we know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g.°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature

ΔT = 75 °C - 25 °C

ΔT = 50 °C

now we will put the values in formula

q = m . c . ΔT

q = 150 g × 4.186 J/g.°C × 50 °C

q = 31395 J

so, 150 g of water need to absorb 31395 J of energy to raise the temperature from 25°C to 75 °C .
