Do all isotopes decay over time ?

2 answers:

4 0

Certain naturally occurring radioactive isotopes are unstable: Their nucleus breaks apart, undergoing nuclear decay. ... All elements with 84 or more protons are unstable; they eventually undergo decay. Other isotopes with fewer protons in their nucleus are also radioactive.

Which pair best represents a metallic bond?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

C. gold atoms

Explanation:

Metallic bonds are found between atoms of metals. Since gold is the only metal given here, it is the solution to the problem.

Metallic bonds join atoms of metals and alloys together.

The formation of this type of bond is favored by large atomic radius, low ionization energy and a large number of electrons in the valence shell.

The metallic bond is actually an attraction between the positive nuclei of all the closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud jointly formed by all atoms losing their outermost shell electrons.

The empirical formula of a molecule is C2H6. In an experiment, the Molar mass of the molecule was determined to be 90.21g/mol. U

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

C₆H₁₈

Explanation:

Let's say x is the subscript of carbon and y is the subscript of hydrogen. We know from the empirical formula that the ratio of x to y is 2 to 6.

x / y = 2 / 6

We also know from the molar mass that:

12.01x + 1.01y = 90.21

Solving the system of equations:

2y = 6x

y = 3x

12.01x + 1.01(3x) = 90.21

12.01x + 3.03x = 90.21

15.04x = 90.21

x = 6

y = 3x

y = 18

The molecular formula is therefore C₆H₁₈.

A characteristic feature of any form of chromatography is the ________.a. calculation of an Rf value for the molecules separated

podryga [215]

Answer : The correct option is, (c) use of a mobile and a stationary phase.

Explanation :

Chromatography : It is a separation process or technique of a mixture in which a mixture is distributed between the two phases at different rates, one of which is stationary phase and another is mobile phase.

Mobile phase : The mixture is dissolved in a solution is known as mobile phase.

Stationary phase : It is an adsorbent medium and It is a solid, liquid or gel that remains immovable when a liquid or a gas moves over the surface of adsorbent. It remains stationary.

Hence, a characteristic feature of any form of chromatography is the use of a mobile and a stationary phase.

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{ B. Increase the temperature and decrease the pressure.}}$

Explanation:

Let's say the reaction is

R ⇌ 2P; endothermic

I like to consider heat as if it were a reactant or a product in a chemical equilibrium.

Another way to write the equilibrium would be

heat + R ⇌ 2P

According to Le Châtelier's Principle, when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond in a way that tends to relieve the stress.

Let's consider each of the stresses in turn.

(i) Changing the temperature

If you want to increase the amount of product, you increase the temperature. The system will try to get rid of the added heat by shifting to the right, thus forming more product.

(ii) Changing the pressure

If R and P are liquids or solids or in aqueous solution, changing the pressure will have no effect. Something must be in the gas phase for a change in pressure to affect the position of equilibrium.

If P is a gas, the equilibrium is

heat + R ⇌ 2P(g)

Then, decreasing the pressure will produce more P. If you reduce the pressure, the system will respond by shifting to the right (the side with more gas molecules) to produce more P and bring the pressure back up
