One way to identify the type of radioactive decay produced in a reaction is to pass the emission through an electric field Descr

Decay of Uranium-238 produces gamma radiaton whereas decay of thorium-234 releases beta radiation.

<h3>What type of radiation is produced?</h3>

In the decay of U-238, two gamma rays of different energies are emitted in addition to the alpha particle while on the other hand, in the decay of thorium-234 , beta rays are emitted.

So we can conclude that decay of Uranium-238 produces gamma radiaton whereas decay of thorium-234 releases beta radiation.

Match each part of the electrochemical cell with its function.

umka21 [38]

Hi!

The correct options would be:

1. Cathode - reduction

The cathode is the negatively charged electrode, and so has an excess of electrons. Cations (positively charged ions) are attracted to the cathode, and gain electrons to acquire a neutral charge. The process in which a gain of electron occurs is called reduction.

2. Anode - oxidation

The opposite occurs at the anode which is positively charged and attracts negatively charged ions, anions. These anions lose their electrons at the anode to acquire a neutral charge, and the process involving loss of electrons is known as oxidation.

3. Salt Bridge - ion transport

Salt bridge is a physical connection between the the anodic and cathodic half cells in an electrochemical cell and is a pathway that facilitates the flow of ions back and forth these half cells. Salt bridge is involved in maintaining a neutral condition in the electrochemical cells, and its absence would result in the accumulation of positive charge in the anodic cell, and negative charge in the cathodic cell.

4. Wire - electron transport

Wires have a universal role of being a pathway for the transport of electrons in circuit. This role is also the same in the wires involved in an electrochemical cells where they are used to transport electrons from the anodic half cell, and this electron transport results in the generation of electricity in the internal circuit of the electrochemical cell.

Hope this helps!

Write the mechanism of the reaction of methyl benzoate to form methyl 2-nitrobenzoate.

Galina-37 [17]

The question is partially incorrect, because nitration of methyl benzoate results in generation of methyl 3-nitrobenzoate, and not methyl 2-benzoate.

This a because of the present of ester group, which deactivated benzene ring at ortho and para position. Due to this, the electrophile (NO2+) attackes on meta position.

The detailed mechanism is attached below.
