Answer:
Explanation:
Trick question. The cathode is where the reduction reaction takes place. The reduction reaction is the gain of electrons.
Pb+2 + 2e^- ===> Pb The eo for that is - 0.126.
The minus sign indicates that the Pb^2+ is not overjoyed at taking on those two electrons. If it had a say in the matter, it would rather be giving up electrons. In other words, it would rather be the oxidizing equation which would look like this
Pb ===> Pb+2 + 2e^- and the oxidizing potential would be eo = + 0.126
That's what moving right and moving left means. If the eo is - then the preferred reaction is the opposite one.
This is a real language problem and if Znk answers you can take his answer to the bank.
89.1% Au
The molar mass of Au2O3 is 2(196.97) + 3(16.00) = 441.94 g/mol
The mass percent of Au is therefore 2(196.97) / 441.94, which is 393.94/441.94 = 0.891 —> 89.1%

Answer:
b. Beta emission, beta emission
Explanation:
A factor to consider when deciding whether a particular nuclide will undergo this or that type of radioactive decay is to consider its neutron:proton ratio (N/P).
Now let us look at the N/P ratio of each atom;
For B-13, there are 8 neutrons and five protons N/P ratio = 8/5 = 1.6
For Au-188 there are 109 neutrons and 79 protons N/P ratio = 109/79=1.4
For B-13, the N/P ratio lies beyond the belt of stability hence it undergoes beta emission to decrease its N/P ratio.
For Au-188, its N/P ratio also lies above the belt of stability which is 1:1 hence it also undergoes beta emission in order to attain a lower N/P ratio.
