Answer:

U --> Th + He

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴

The complete combustion of copper(I) sulphide is according to the following equation:
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

a) 7.94 x 10²³ molecules, b) 5.62 g SO2, c) 1.97 L

Explanation:

a) We need to first convert Cu2S to moles. Since molar mass of Cu2S is 159.14 g/mol, 14.0 g = 0.0880 mol. Using molar ratios (3 mol O2/2 mol Cu2S, 0.0880 mol of Cu2S = 0.132 mol O2. Since 1 mol contains 6.02 x 10²³ molecules, 0.132 mol O2 = 7.94 x 10²² molecules O2.

b) Since the molar ratios of Cu2S to SO2 is 1:1, 0.0880 mol of Cu2S produces 0.0880 mol SO2. To convert mol to grams, we use the molar mass of SO2 (64.06 g/mol) to figure out that 0.0880 mol SO2 = 5.63 g SO2.

c) At STP, 1 mol occupies 22.4 liters. 0.0880 mol SO2 x 22.4 L/1 mol = 1.97 L

4. Calculate the final concentration if water is added to 1.5 L of a 12 M
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

6M

Explanation:

(Molarity x Volume)concentrated soln = (Molarity x Volume)diluted doln

Molarity dilute soln = [(M x V)conc/V (dilute)] = 1.5L x 12M / 3.0L = 6M final dilute soln

A block of aluminum occupies a volume of 15.0 ML and weighs 40.5 gallons what is the density
svlad2 [7]

Hello!

I'm going to have to infer that you meant "grams" and not "gallons" :-)

Anyways, to find the density, you need to the divide mass over volume (d = m/V).

Since we are given the volume being 15.0 mL, and the weight being 40.5 grams, we can find the density of the aluminum block.

40.5 grams / 15.0 mL = 2.7 g/mL

Therefore, the density of the aluminum block is 2.7 grams per milliliter.
