A nuclear reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come very close and then collide at a very high speed and join to form a new type of atomic nucleus.
Hope this helps :)

Which of the following adaptations would you expect tofind in an animal in the alpine biome, but not in the taiga

almond37 [142]

I think the best answer is migration. In an alpine biome, animals have two problems which is the very cold temperature and the UV rays from the sun. Most alpine animals hibernate and migrate to warmer areas of the mountains when the temperature continues to drop.

Instant cold packs, often used to ice athletic injuries on the field, contain ammonium nitrate and water separated by a thin pla

RSB [31]

Answer: The enthalpy change of the reaction is -27. kJ/mol

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 25.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{25.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 25.0mL)=25g$

To calculate the heat released by the reaction, we use the equation:

$q=mc\Delta T$

where,

q = heat released

m = Total mass = [1.25 + 25] = 26.25 g

c = heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g°C

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = $T_2-T_1=(21.9-25.8)^oC=-3.9^oC$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$q=26.25g\tiimes 4.18J/g^oC\times (-3.9^oC)=-427.9J=-0.428kJ$

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of ammonium nitrate = 1.25 g

Molar mass of ammonium nitrate = 80 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of ammonium nitrate}=\frac{1.25g}{80g/mol}=0.0156mol$

To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

q = amount of heat released = -0.428 kJ

n = number of moles = 0.0156 moles

$\Delta H_{rxn}$ = enthalpy change of the reaction

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{-0.428kJ}{0.0156mol}=-27.44kJ/mol$

Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction is -27. kJ/mol

For each solution, determine the p-values for each ion indicated. A solution that is 0.493 M in NaCl and 0.314 M in NH 4 Cl .

miss Akunina [59]

Complete Question:

Ions to calculate the p-values: Na⁺, Cl⁻, and NH₄⁺

Answer:

pNa = 0.307

pCl = 0.093

pNH₄ = 0.503

Explanation:

The p-value is calculated by the antilog of the concentration of the substance of interest. For example, pH = -log[H⁺]. Thus, first, let's find the ions concentration.

Both substances are salts that solubilize completely, thus, by the solution reactions:

NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻

NH₄Cl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻

So, for both reactions the stoichiometry is 1:1:1 and the concentration of the ions is equal to the concentration of the salts.

[Na⁺] = 0.493 M

[Cl⁻] = 0.493 + 0.314 = 0.807 M

[NH₄⁺] = 0.314 M

The p-values are:

pNa = -log[Na⁺] = -log(0.493) = 0.307

pCl = -log[Cl⁻] = -log(0.807) = 0.093

pNH₄ = -log[NH₄⁺] = -log(0.314) = 0.503

Musya8 [376]

B. Low blood pressure and drooling. If the user is tranquilized, he would not be able to hinder the production of saliva, leading to drooling. And if the victim was tranquilized, his heart would slow down, not speed up, resulting in a lower blood pressure.
