Answer:

\rm ^{103}_{\phantom{1}40}Zr, zirconium-103.

Explanation:

In a nuclear reaction, both the mass number and atomic number will conserve.

Let ^{A}_{Z}\mathrm{X} represent the unknown particle.

The mass number of a particle is the number on the upper-left corner. The atomic number of a particle is the number on its lower-left corner under the mass number. For example, for the particle ^{A}_{Z}\mathrm{X}, A is the mass number while Z while Z is the atomic number.

Sum of mass numbers on the left-hand side of the equation:

\underbrace{239}_{^{239}_{\phantom{2}94}\mathrm{Pu}} + \underbrace{1}_{^{1}_{0}\mathrm{n}} = 240.

Note that there are three neutrons on the right-hand side of the equation. Sum of mass numbers on the right-hand side:

\underbrace{A}_{^{A}_{Z}\mathrm{X}} + \underbrace{134}_{^{134}_{\phantom{2}54}\mathrm{Xe}} + \underbrace{3\times 1}_{3\;^{1}_{0}\mathrm{n}} = A + 137.

Mass number conserves. As a result,

A + 137 = 240.

Solve this equation for A:

A = 103.

Among the five choices, the only particle with a mass number of 103 is \rm ^{103}_{\phantom{1}40}Zr. Make sure that atomic number also conserves.

The following data is given to find the formula of a Hydrate:
umka21 [38]

The masses can be found by substractions:

  • Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):

16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g

  • Mass of CaSO₄ anhydrate:

15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g

  • The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:

2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g

  • The percent of water is found by the formula:

massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%

0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%

  • The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):

0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water

  • A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)

1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄

  • The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:

0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49

In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O

4.3 moles of a gas are at a temperature of 28 degrees * C with a pressure of 1.631 atm. What volume does the gas occupy?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

65.2L

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation;

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (Litres)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (Kelvin)

According to the information provided in this question,

P = 1.631 atm

V = ?

n = 4.3 moles

T = 28°C = 28 + 273 = 301K

Using PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V = 4.3 × 0.0821 × 301 ÷ 1.631

V = 106.26 ÷ 1.631

V = 65.15

Volume of the gas = 65.2L

How are Parkinson's disease and ALS similar?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Both diseases affect the control of voluntary muscles.

Explanation:

Parkinson's disease is a progressive brain disease that affects movement. It affects the nerve cells that produce dopamine in the part of the brain called substantia nigra. The symptoms include shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with walking, balance, and coordination. Symptoms get worse with time, often leaving people with difficulty walking and talking.

ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms usually involve muscle weakness, and as the disease progresses, it results in the loss of muscle control.

Scientists don't know the exact cause of these diseases. As the cause is not known, there is no exact way to prevent them. There is no cure for them, either. The treatment is focused on the management of symptoms.

This is why the third option is the correct one.
