Answer:

<span><span>22688</span>Ra→<span>l<span>22286</span></span>Rn+<span>l<span>42</span></span>He</span>

Explanation:

An α-particle is a helium nucleus. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons, for a mass number of 4.

During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. It transforms (or decays) into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less.

Thus, radium-226 decays through α-particle emission to form radon-222 according to the equation:

<span><span>22688</span>Ra→<span>l<span>22286</span></span>Rn+<span>l<span>42</span></span>He</span>

Note that the sum of the subscripts (atomic numbers or charges) is the same on each side of the equation.

Also, the sum of the superscripts (masses) is the same on each side of the equation.

Now try figuring out Am-241

__MgCl2 +
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

24.5 g of NaCl

Explanation:

We begin from the balanced reaction:

3MgCl₂ +   2Na₃PO₄  →    6NaCl   +  Mg₃(PO₄)₂

If the sodium phosphate is in excess, then the limting reagent is the magnessium chloride.

We convert mass to moles:

20 g . 1mol / 95.2g = 0.210 moles.

3 moles of MgCl₂ can produce 6 moles of NaCl

0.210 moles of salt, may produce (0.210 . 6) /3 = 0.420 moles

Ratio of reactant is twice the product

We convert the moles to mass:

0.420 mol .  58.45 g/mol = 24.5 g

When 91.5 g of isopropyl alcohol which has an empirical formula of C3H8O is burned in excess oxygen gas, how many grams of H2O a
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

109.7178g of H2O

Explanation:

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

2C3H8O + 9O2 —> 6CO2 + 8H2O

Next we will calculate the molar mass and masses of C3H8O and H20. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of C3H8O = (3x12.011) + (8x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 36.033 + 8.06352 + 15.9994 = 60.09592g/mol.

Mass of C3H8O from the balanced equation = 2 x 60.09592 = 120.19184g

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 2.01588 + 15.9994 = 18.01528g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 8 x 18.01528 = 144.12224g

From the equation,

120.19184g of C3H8O produced 144.12224g of H20.

Therefore, 91.5g of C3H8O will produce = (91.5 x 144.12224) /120.19184 = 109.7178g of H2O

How many moles of H2O2 are needed to react with 1.07 moles of N2H4?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

2.14 moles of H₂O₂ are required

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of H₂O₂ required = ?

Number of moles of N₂H₄ available = 1.07 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂H₄  +   2H₂O₂       →   N₂ +  4H₂O

now we will compare the moles of H₂O₂ and N₂H₄

                          N₂H₄     :      H₂O₂  

                            1           :        2

                            1.07      :         2×1.07 = 2.14 mol
