C. It's nucleus can break apart.
If it's breaking apart, it's decaying in order to become more stable. Hope that helps!

An analytical chemist is titrating of a solution of nitrous acid with a solution of . The of nitrous acid is . Calculate the pH
Burka [1]

Answer:

pH = 2.69

Explanation:

The complete question is:<em> An analytical chemist is titrating 182.2 mL of a 1.200 M solution of nitrous acid (HNO2) with a solution of 0.8400 M KOH. The pKa of nitrous acid is 3.35. Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 46.44 mL of the KOH solution to it.</em>

<em />

The reaction of HNO₂ with KOH is:

HNO₂ + KOH → NO₂⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

Moles of HNO₂ and KOH that react are:

HNO₂ = 0.1822L × (1.200mol / L) = <em>0.21864 moles HNO₂</em>

KOH = 0.04644L × (0.8400mol / L) = <em>0.0390 moles KOH</em>

That means after the reaction, moles of HNO₂ and NO₂⁻ after the reaction are:

NO₂⁻ = 0.03900 moles KOH = moles NO₂⁻

HNO₂ = 0.21864 moles HNO₂ - 0.03900 moles = 0.17964 moles HNO₂

It is possible to find the pH of this buffer (<em>Mixture of a weak acid, HNO₂ with the conjugate base, NO₂⁻), </em>using H-H equation for this system:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

pH = 3.35 + log₁₀ [0.03900mol] / [0.17964mol]

<h3>pH = 2.69</h3>

8. The time period of artificial satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T. The radius of the orbit in which time period is
Elena-2011 [213]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The time period of artificial satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T. The relation between the time period and the radius is given by :

T^2\propto R^3

The radius of the orbit in which time period is 8T is R'. So, the relation is given by :

(\dfrac{T}{T'})^2=(\dfrac{R}{R'})^3

(\dfrac{T}{8T})^2=(\dfrac{R}{R'})^3  

\dfrac{1}{64}=(\dfrac{R}{R'})^3

R'=4\times R

So, the radius of the orbit in which time period is 8T is 4R. Hence, this is the required solution.

Why is it suggested you use weighing paper or a watch glass instead of filter paper on which to allow a sample to dry? please gi
snow_lady [41]
The suggestion is to prevent a puddle of the liquid present in the sample from forming or from it leaking on to the surface on which it is placed. For example, if precipitates of a solid are removed from water and then placed on filter paper to dry, the water will soak into the filter paper and then leak on to the counter on which it is placed. If this precipitate were placed in a watch glass or weighing paper, the water would only evaporate and would not contaminate the sample.
