1 answer:

7 0

Transmutation is the process of changing the substance, tangible or not, from one form to the other. It means the transformation of one element in the periodic table into another by one or a series of nuclear decays or reactions. One type of transmutation is nuclear transmutation. Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one chemical element or isotope into another though nuclear reactions or nuclear decay. Second type of transmutation is artificial transmutation. Artificial transmutation occur in machinery that uses nough energy to cause changes in the nuclear structure of the elements.

Debora [2.8K]

The Earth's rotation has no relation to the phases of the moon.
Like everything else in the sky, the moon rises in the east just like the stars, planets, and the sun.

Identify the ways that art and science are similar

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Arts and science are similar in that they are expressions of what it is to be human in this world.

Explanation:

Both are driven by curiosity, discovery, the aspiration for knowledge of the world or oneself, and perhaps, as the conceptual artist Goshka Macuga said on her recent visit to Cern, a desire for world domination.

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coeffici

Brut [27]

Question:

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

Answer:

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

Explanation:

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

$E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma$
