Gamma rays consist of pure energy. Beta particles consist of one electron that is released at high speeds from an unstable nucleus and an alpha particle is a helium nucleus.

We know that Gamma rays consist of pure energy because, during Gamma decay, the atomic and mass numbers remain unchanged. Therefore, only energy is emitted.

Gamma rays are weakly ionising, however, they are strongly penetrating and thick concrete or a few centimetres of aluminium is needed to stop them.

A compound is 53. 31% c, 11. 18% h, and 35. 51% o by mass. What is its empirical formula? insert subscripts as needed.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

C2H5O

Explanation:

In a 100 g sample we would have

53.31 g of C

11.18g of H

35.51g of O

First, we find the relative number of atoms of each element by dividing the number of grams the element has in the compound by its atomic mass.

Atomic mass of carbon is 12.011

Relative number of carbon atoms = 53.31 / 12.011 = 4.4

Atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.007

Relative number of hydrogen atoms : 11.18/1.007 = 11.1

Atomic mass of oxygen : 15.999

Relative number of oxygen atoms : 35.51 / 15.999 = 2.2


Now we find a ratio of the relative number of atoms by dividing the # of relative atoms of each element by the element's relative number of atoms that had the lowest number. ( oxygen which had 2.2 ) The outcome of each will be the subscript or number of atoms of each element.

Carbon : 4.4 / 2.2 = 2

Hydrogen : 11.1 / 2.2 = 5

Oxygen : 2.2 / 2.2 = 1

The answer is C2H5O

Mr. Summers observed that kids with hot dogs are happy. This observation led to a hypothesis that hot dogs must make kids happy.
Maslowich

Given what we know, we can confirm that since Mr. Summers has to test a hypothesis, his next step should be to design an experiment.

<h3>Why design an Experiment?</h3>
  • The next step is to design an experiment.
  • This is because Mr. Summers has already made an observation and created a problem.
  • He must now gather data to be analyzed.
  • In order to do this, he must first design and perform an experiment.

Therefore, we can confirm that Mr. Summers must design an experiment given that this is the best way to gather data in order to be analyzed in the future and draw a valid conclusion.

A certain first-order reaction (A→products) has a rate constant of 8.10×10−3 s−1 at 45 ∘C. How many minutes does it take for the
stira [4]

Answer:

The answer is 5.7 minutes

Explanation:

A first-order reaction follow the law of Ln [A] = -k.t + Ln [A]_{0}. Where <em>[A]</em> is the concentration of the reactant at any <em>t</em> time of the reaction, [A]_{0} is the concentration of the reactant at the beginning of the reaction and <em>k</em> is the rate constant.

Dropping the concentration of the reactant to 6.25% means the concentration of A at the end of the reaction has to be [A]=\frac{6.25}{100}.[A]_{0}. And the rate constant (<em>k</em>) is 8.10×10−3 s−1

Replacing the equation of the law:

Ln \frac{6.25}{100}.[A]_{0} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t + Ln[A]_{0}

Clearing the equation:

Ln [A]_{0}.\frac{6.25}{100} - Ln [A]_{0} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t

<em>Considering the property of logarithms: </em>Ln A - Ln B = Ln \frac{A}{B}

Using the property:

Ln \frac{[A]_{0}}{[A]_{0}}.\frac{6.25}{100} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t

Clearing <em>t </em>and solving:

t = \frac{Ln \frac{6.25}{100} }{-8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1} } = 342.3s

The answer is in the unit of seconds, but every minute contains 60 seconds, converting the units:

342.3x\frac{1min}{60s} = 5.7min
