What characteristics do atoms of carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14 have in common?

Why are salt and sugar both able to dissolve in water, even though the solutes have different types of chemical bonding?

Serjik [45]

Answer:Water is polar molecule, ionic compound dissolves in it as like dissolves like.

there is ionic interaction between a salt and water

Sugar has hydroxyl group in it. These hydroxyl group are able to form hydrogen bond with water molecule.

[Hydrogen bond : the interaction between a hydrogen, bonded with a highly electro-negative element (F,O,N) and other highly electro-negative element (F,O,N)]

Thus due to hydrogen bond sugar is soluble in water.

Explanation:The water molecules, , are polar, with positive partial charges on the hydrogen and a negative partial charge on the oxygen. This makes it possible to interact with ionic compounds such as salt (NaCl). This interaction occurs through the partially positive and negative ends of the water, so that the positive charges attract the negative ones. The NaCl salt in water dissociates (separates) into and ions. ions are surrounded by negative partial charges of water oxygen, while ions are surrounded by hydrogen ends with positive partial charge. In this way the salt is dissolved in water.

Sugar is a molecular compound formed by covalent bonds. In a polar covalent bond, electrons are shared unevenly. This creates a slightly negatively charged end and a slightly positively charged end. This is what happens with sugar. These extremes are those that interact with the positive and negative extremes of water, mentioned previously. Then it is possible to say that sugar dissolves in water because both substances are polar substances.

In short, water dissolves most of the substances that are polar or ionic, as in the case of sugar and salt.

Part A Transmutation is the process of transforming one element into another through nuclear reactions. What will be the nuclide

S_A_V [24]

Answer: The isotope produced after the transmutation process of Cf-249 and C-12 is $_{104}^{257}\textrm{Rf}$

Explanation:

Transmutation is defined as the process where one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.

The chemical equation for the reaction of Californium-249 nucleus with Carbon-12 nucleus follows:

$_{98}^{249}\textrm{Cf}+_6^{12}\textrm{C}\rightarrow _{Z}^{A}\textrm{X}+4_0^1\textrm{n}$

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

249 + 12 = A + 4

A = 257

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

98 + 6 = Z + 0

Z = 104

Hence, the isotope produced after the transmutation process of Cf-249 and C-12 is $_{104}^{257}\textrm{Rf}$

A flexible container at an initial volume of 6.13 L contains 6.51 mol of gas. More gas is then added to the container until it r

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

the final mole of the flexible container = 12.92 moles

Explanation:

Given that :

initial volume of a flexible container = 6.13 L

initial mole of a flexible container = 6.51 mol

final volume of a flexible container = 18.3 L

final mole of a flexible container = ???

Assuming the pressure and temperature of the gas remain constant, calculate the number of moles of gas added to the container.

Therefore,

$n= \dfrac{V_2*n_1}{V_1}$

$n= \dfrac{18.3*6.51}{6.13}$

n = 19.43

$n=n_1+n_2$

19.43 = 6.51 + n₂

n₂ = 19.43 - 6.51

n₂ = 12.92 moles

Thus; the final mole of the flexible container = 12.92 moles

Which of the following is an asteroid? A: A shooting star B: A big chunk of space rock C: A small comet D: A small meteor

lora16 [44]

Answer:

B: A big chunk of space rock

Explanation:

asteroids are basically known as minor planets.

whereas shooting star is some dust burning while entering earths atmosphere.

on the other hand comet is some icy material consisting of gases.

and meteor is a very very small rocky or metallic body.
