The correct option is A.
To calculate the binding energy, you have to find the mass defect first.
Mass defect = [mass of proton and neutron] - Mass of the nucleus
The molar mass of thorium that we are given in the question is 234, the atomic number of thorium is 90, that means the number of neutrons in thorium is
234 - 90 = 144.
The of proton in thourium is 90, same as the atomic number.
Mass defect = {[90 * 1.00728] +[144* 1.00867]} - 234
Note that each proton has a mass of 1.00728 amu and each neutron has the mass of 1.00867 amu.
Mass defect = [90.6552 + 145.24848] - 234 = 1.90368 amu.
Note that the unit of the mass is in amu, it has to be converted to kg
To calculate the mass in kg
Mass [kg] = 1.90368 * [1kg/6.02214 * 10^-26 = 3.161135 * 10^-27
To calculate the binding energy
E = MC^2
C = Speed of light constant = 2.9979245 *10^8 m/s2
E = [3.161135 * 10^-27] * [2.9979245 *10^8]^2
E = 2.84108682069 * 10^-10.
Note that we arrive at this answer because of the number of significant figures that we used.
So, from the option given, Option A is the nearest to the calculated value and is our answer for this problem.
Answer:
hey you wanna get it right try this one: 48.0 kcal
was released... at constant pressure.
Explanation:
Answer:
<h2>6426000 mg</h2>
Explanation:
The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula
mass = Density × volume
From the question
63 mL = 63 cm³
We have
mass = 102 × 63 = 6426
But 1 g = 1000 mg
6426 g = 6426000 mg
We have the final answer as
<h3>6,426,000 mg</h3>
Hope this helps you
Answer:
A gas mixture containing oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide has a total pressure of 32.5 kPa.
<u>The pressure for oxygen is 3 kPa</u>
Explanation:
According to Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure total exerted by the mixture of non-reacting gases is equal to sum of the partial pressure of each gas.
So,
For , a gas mixture containing oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide has a total pressure:
Insert the values in :
Explanation:
Mole = 0.5 = n/NA
n = no. of molecule
NA = avogadro number = 6.023x 10^23
so
N/NA = 0.5
N = 0.5 x 6.023 x 10^23
N = 3.0115 x 10^23
