Answer: Alpha radiation

Explanation: Alpha decay : When a larger radioactive nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha radiation, the mass number and atomic number is reduced by 4 and 2 units respectively.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}Y+_2^4\textrm{He}


Beta decay : When a larger radioactive nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing beta radiation, the atomic number is increased by 1 unit.


_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^{A}Y+_{-1}^0e


Gamma decay : When a larger radioactive nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing gamma radiation, the mass number remains same.

_Z^A\textrm{X}^*\rightarrow _Z^A\textrm{X}+_0^0\gamma

If the p-side has a higher doping concentration, explain how to keep tuning to the same radio channel?
zzz [600]

Answer:

increase in temperature of the intrinsic semiconductor

Explanation:

  • If the p-side has a higher doping concentration, it implies that number of holes (positive ion) increased which is greater than number of electron (negative ion) in the n-side
  • in order to balance the intrinsic concentration, that is to balance the number of holes and electrons which depends on temperature.
  • an increase in the temperature of the intrinsic semiconductor (p-side), increases the number of electron but number of holes remains constant.

A balance in the intrinsic concentration helps in tuning to the same radio channel.

An ore is to be analyzed for its iron content by an oxidation-reduction titration with permanganate ion. A 4.230 g sample of the
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The balanced redox reaction equation is;

8H+ + MnO4^- + 5Fe2+ ---------> Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O

Amount of KMnO4 reacted = 31.60/1000 * 0.05120 = 1.62 * 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of MnO4^- reacted with 5 moles of Fe2+

1.62 * 10^-3 moles will react with 1.62 * 10^-3 moles * 5/1 = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles  *  56 g/mol

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 0.45 g

Amount of iron in the sample =  0.45 g

Percentage of iron in the sample;

0.45 g/4.230 g  * 100 = 10.6 %
