Answer:

C-14 => N-14 + β⁻

Explanation:

C-14 over time decays by beta emission to N-14. Before decay, C-14 nucleus contains 6 protons and 8 neutrons. It is accepted that a neutron (n°) is composed of 1 proton (p⁺) and 1 electron (e⁻). Beta emission indicates loss/discharge of a high energy e⁻ from the nucleus of C-14 leaving 7 protons and 7 neutrons. The number of protons defines the element, N-14 as a product of the decay process with the β particle (high energy electron) the other. To check, remember, the ∑mass Reactants = ∑mass Products (superscript numbers) and ∑reactant charges = ∑product charges (subscript numbers

₆C¹⁴ => ₇N¹⁴ + ₋₁e° or, C-14 => N-14 + β

What is 2.75 mol of O2

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

2,75 mol of O2 it's 88 g of O2.

Explanation:

The weight of the diatomic molecule O2 is 32 g/mol. So considering that, you should multiply 2,75 mol · 32 = 88g :)

Which reactions are oxidation-reduction reactions? check all that apply. fes(s) 2hcl(aq) â†’ h2s(g) fecl2(g) agno3(aq) nacl(aq)

Dafna1 [17]

oxidation-reduction reactions are -

2C3H6(g) + 9O2(g) → 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)
Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO2(g)

For reaction,

2C3H6(g) + 9O2(g) → 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)

On reactant side:

Oxidation state of Carbon = +2

Oxidation state of Oxygen = 0

On product side:

Oxidation state of Carbon = +4

Oxidation state of Oxygen = -2

Here, carbon's oxidation state is rising from +2 to +4. As a result, it is oxidizing and the oxygen's oxidation state is decreasing from 0 to -2. As a result, it is decreasing.

For reaction,

Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO2(g)

When reacting:

Iron's oxidation state is +3.

Carbon's oxidation state is +2.

On product side:

Iron's oxidation state is zero.

Carbon's oxidation state is +4.

Here, carbon's oxidation state is rising from +2 to +4. As a result, it is being oxidized and the iron's oxidation state is changing from +3 to 0. As a result, it is decreasing.

Consider the model of the nitrogen atom.

liq [111]

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p3

Explanation:

we know that the number of electrons in an atom is equal to number of protons. So the number of electrons here is 7.

Using Moller chart, the electronic configuration is writen by the electrons first enterring into 1s then into 2s after 2p. The s orbital accomodates maximum of 2 electrons.

∴ for atomic no. 7 nitrogen atom, electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p3.
