Why does C-14 decay but not N-14?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Effectus [21]3 years ago
3 0

Beta decay occurs when a neutron transforms into a proton, an electron(and an electron anti-neutrino) Even though there are less electrostatically-repelling protons in C 14 than in N 14 the extra neutrons make the nucleus less stable than that of N 14

Nady [450]

Answer:

0.825 M

Explanation:

The osmotic pressure is a colligative property, that can be calculated using the following expression.

π = M × R × T

where,

π is the osmotic pressure

M is the molarity

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature (24°C + 273 = 297 K)

M = π / R × T = 20.1 atm / (0.08206 atm.L/mol.K) × 297 K = 0.825 M

How many atoms are in 8.28 moles of aluminum?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

49.86 × 10²³  atoms of Al

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Al = 8.28 mol

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

For 8.28 moles of Al:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³  atoms of Al

8.28 mol×6.022 × 10²³  atoms / 1mol

49.86 × 10²³  atoms of Al

The combustion of gasoline produces carbon dioxide and water. Assume gasoline to be pure octane (C8H18) and calculate the mass (
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

3.09kg

Explanation:

First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2C8H18 + 25O2 —> 16CO2 + 18H2O

Molar Mass of C8H18 = (12x8) + (18x1) = 96 + 18 = 114g/mol

Mass of C8H18 from the balanced equation = 2 x 114 = 228g

Converting 228g of C8H18 to kg, we obtained:

228/1000 = 0.228kg

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 12 + 32 = 44g/mol

Mass of CO2 from the balanced equation = 16 x 44 = 704g

Converting 704g of CO2 to kg, we obtained:

704/1000 = 0.704kg

From the equation,

0.228kg of C8H18 produced 0.704kg of CO2.

Therefore, 1kg of C8H18 will produce = 0.704/0.228 = 3.09kg of CO2
