Answer:

alpha particle, proton, beta particle

Explanation:

Protons are fundamental sub-atomic particles present inside the nucleus of an atom. The mass of a proton is around 1 amu (atomic mass unit).

Alpha (α) and beta (β) particles are by products of radioactive decay. Alpha particles are essentially a composite of 2 protons and 2 neutrons similar to the He nucleus. Therefore, the have a mass of 4 amu

Beta particles are high energy particles which can either be electrons (negative charge) or positron (positive charge). They have a mass which is 1/2000th the mass of a proton.

Therefore, the mass from the largest to the smallest would be:

alpha > proton > beta

Hydrogen and chlorine react to form hydrogen chloride, like this:

REY [17]

Answer:

the value of the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction is 0.275

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Pressure HCl at the equilibrium = 18.0 atm

Pressure H2 at the equilibrium = 25.4 atm

Pressure Cl2 at the equilibrium = 46.4 atm

Step 2: The balanced equation

H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2 HCl(g)

Step 3: Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction

Kp = (pHCl)² / (pH2*pCl2)

Kp = 18.0² / (25.4 * 46.4)

Kp = 324 / 1178.56

Kp = 0.275

the value of the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction is 0.275

Consider the change given below. At constant pressure, is work done by the system on the surroundings? By the surroundings on th

alexira [117]

Answer : At constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Explanation :

Work done : Any quantity that flows across the boundary of a system during a change in its state and it completely convertible into the lifting of a weight in the surroundings.

Formula for work done is:

$w=-p_{ext}dV$

Sign convention :

When volume expand then system work that means work done by the system.

w = (-ve)

When volume compress then surrounding work that means work done on the system.

w = (+ve)

The given reaction is:

$Hg(l)\rightarrow Hg(g)$

This is a evaporation process in which phase changes from liquid state to gaseous state at constant temperature.

At constant pressure, work depends only on volume.

In evaporation process, the volume expand that means work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Sign convention is, w = (-ve)

Thus, at constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Which of the following are functions of the ears?

Advocard [28]

The functions of the ears are:

I. Hearing by collecting and processing sound waves

II. Keeping our balance when we turn or bend over; option A

<h3>What is the function of the ear?</h3>

The ear is one of the five sense organs in the body.

The sense organs are the organs which receive external stimulus and send it to the brain for processing and response.

The other sense organs are:

the eye
the nose
the skin
the tongue

The functions of the ear are for hearing and for balance.

In conclusion, the sense organs function to receive stimulus and send them to the brain.

Find the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 11 and

Black_prince [1.1K]

Explanation:

the pH of the solution defined as negatuve logarithm of $H^+$ ion concentration.

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

1. Hydrogen ion concentration when pH of the solution is 11.

$11=-\log[H^+]$

$[H^+]=1\times 10^{-11} mol/L$ ..(1)

At pH = 11, the concentration of $H^+$ ions is $1\times 10^{-11} mol/L$ .

2. Hydrogen ion concentration when the pH of the solution is 6.

$6=-\log[H^+]'$

$[H^+]'=1\times 10^{-6} mol/L$ ..(2)

At pH = 6, the concentration of $H^+$ ions is $1\times 10^{-6} mol/L$ .

3. On dividing (1) by (2).

$\frac{[H^+]}{[H^+]'}=\frac{1\times 10^{-11} mol/L}{1\times 10^{-6} mol/L}=1\times 10^{-5}$

The ratio of hydrogen ions in solution of pH equal to 11 to the solution of pH equal to 6 is $1\times 10^{-5}$ .

4. Difference between the $H^+$ ions at both pH:

$1\times 10^{-6} mol/L-1\times 10^{-11} mol/L=9.99\time 10^{-7} mol/L$

This means that Hydrogen ions in a solution at pH = 7 has $9.99\time 10^{-7} mol/L$ ions fewer than in a solution at a pH = 6
