Why are some isotopes radioactive and some are not?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Otrada [13]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: there are atoms that either have too many or too few neutrons or protons in their nuclei. This results in an imbalance between the jedi forces holding them together, which leads to an excess of internal energy. Such atoms are said to be unstable or radioactive.

Predict and Balance the following reaction:
Umnica [9.8K]

A. The balanced chemical reaction of Sodium metal and Water is 2Na  +  2H₂O  →  2NaOH    +   H₂.

<h3>What is a balanced chemical equation? </h3>

A balanced equation contains the same number of each type of atoms on both the left and right sides of the reaction arrow.

<h3>Reaction of Sodium metal and Water</h3>

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2).

The balanced chemical reaction is written below;

2Na  +  2H₂O  →  2NaOH    +   H₂

Thus, the balanced chemical reaction of Sodium metal and Water is 2Na  +  2H₂O  →  2NaOH    +   H₂.

What is the mass if 1.72 moles of sodium nitrate
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

146 g

Explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the <em>molar mass</em> of NaNO₃

Na =                    22.99

  N =                     14.01

3O = 3 × 16.00 = 48.00

               Total = 85.00 g/mol

Step 2. Calculate the <em>mass</em>  of NaNO₃

Mass of NaNO₃ = 1.72 × 85.00/1

Mass of NaNO₃ = 146 g

Read the following chemical equation: Ti + 2Cl2 → TiCl4 Which statement best identifies and describes the reducing agent in the
goldenfox [79]

Answer: Ti is the reducing agent because it changes from 0 to +4 oxidation state.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to identify the reducing agent and the oxidizing agent.
  • The reducing agent: is the agent that has been oxidized via losing electrons.
  • The oxidizing agent: is the agent that has been reduced via gaining electrons.
  • Here, Ti losses 4 electrons and its oxidation state is changed from 0 to +4 and Cl₂  gains one electron  and its oxidation state is changed from 0 to -1.
  • So, Ti is the reducing agent because its oxidation state changes from  0 to +4.
  • Cl₂ is the oxidizing agent because its oxidation state changes from 0 to -1.
  • Thus, The right answer is Ti is the reducing agent because it changes from 0 to +4 oxidation state.
