Answer:

\rm_{90}^{231}\text{Th}

Explanation:

The unbalanced nuclear equation is

\rm _{92}^{235}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} + X

Let's write X as a nuclear symbol.

\rm _{92}^{235}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} + _{Z}^{A}\text{X}

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that the sums of the superscripts and of the subscripts must be the same on each side of the reaction arrow.

Then

235 = 4 + A , so A = 235 - 4 = 231, and

 92 = 2 + Z , so  Z =   92 - 2 =  90

And your nuclear equation becomes

\rm _{92}^{235}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} +\, _{90}^{231}\text{X}

Element 90 is thorium, so  

\rm X = _{90}^{231}\text{Th}

Manganese, Mn, forms two ions, one with a 2+ charge and one with a 3+ charge. What is the formula for manganese (II) sulfide?
maria [59]
It would be MnSO4

The (II) lets you know it’s the form with a 2+ charge and Sulfate has a 2- charge

These will cancel out making it plain MnSO4

If it was manganese (iii) sulfide the answer would be Mn2(SO4)3

When sulfate (SO42-) serves as the electron acceptor at the end of a respiratory electron transport chain, the product is?
o-na [289]

When sulfate (SO₄²⁻) serves as the electron acceptor at the end of a respiratory electron transport chain, the product is hydrogen sulfide (H₂S).

How sulfate acts as electon acceptor and electron donor?

  • Sulfate (SO₄²⁻) is used as the electron acceptor in sulfate reduction, which results in the production of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as a metabolic byproduct.
  • Many Gram negative bacteria identified in the -Proteobacteria use sulfate reduction, which is a rather energy-poor process.
  • Gram-positive organisms connected to Desulfotomaculum or the archaeon Archaeoglobus also utilise it.
  • Electron donors are needed for sulfate reduction, such as hydrogen gas or the carbon molecules lactate and pyruvate (organotrophic reducers) (lithotrophic reducers).

When a person in the hospital is given fluids intravenously, the fluid is typically a saline (salt) solution with about the same
Sati [7]

Answer:

Swelling of the red blood cells occurs.

Explanation:

  • <u>Distilled water makes the blood hypotonic ,. that is a less concentrated solution, to the body  tissues including  the red blood cells. </u>
  • Therefore the water will enter the red blood cells and may cause them to lyse or swell.
  • <em>Additionally , water will enter the tissue spaces and cause sweling. </em>
  • But in the case of a hypertonic solution , ( a salt or saline solution ) , <em>This swelling does not happen because the concentration of the saline will be equal or more than the blood. </em>
  • Thus the water will flow only from the blood to the solution. <u>This will not cause swelling.</u>
  • But too much of salt is also not recommended.

Which substance has a melting point greater than room temperature
yarga [219]
The answer is b because Heating water makes it evaporate faster
Adding salt makes it boil at a higher temperature
Increasing the pressure would force the water from the air back into the beaker
Increasing the humidity means there are more molecules in the air, increasing the chance that our water
