The two elements that produce background radiation on earth are Radon and Uranium. Airborne radon can decay on its own. Radon undergoes alpha decay to produce Polonium. Uranium naturally undergoes alpha decay to produce Thorium.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Nitrogen is a naturally occurring element that is essential for growth and reproduction in both plants and animals. It is found in amino acids that make up proteins, in nucleic acids, that comprise the hereditary material and life's blueprint for all cells, and in many other organic and inorganic compounds.
Answer:
40.8g of sodium sulfate must be added
Explanation:
The reaction of barium nitrate, Ba(NO₃)₂ with sodium sulfate, Na₂SO₄ is:
Ba(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄ → 2 NaNO₃ + BaSO₄(s)
That means, for a complete reaction of an amount of barium nitrate you must add the same amount in moles of sodium sulfate. To solve this problem we need to convert the mass of barium nitrate to moles = Moles of sodium sulfate that must be added:
<em>Moles Ba(NO₃)₂ -Molar mass: 261.3g/mol-:</em>
75g * (1mol / 261.3g) = 0.287 moles = Moles Na₂SO₄
<em>Mass Na₂SO₄ -Molar mass: 142.04g/mol-:</em>
0.287 moles * (142.04g / mol) =
<h3>40.8g of sodium sulfate must be added</h3>
Answer:
178.01347 ± 0.00093 g/mol
