The atomic number of nickel-60 is 28. How many neutrons does this isotope have?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The atomic number of nickel-60 is 28. This isotope will have 32 neutrons. The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus for a certain atom. For this case, we have 28 protons. The number 60 represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the atoms.

60 = 28 + no. of neutrons
no. of neutrons = 32.</span>

if a standard die is rolled twice what is the probability of getting a perfect square,then a number that is less than 5.

Amanda [17]

There are three perfect squares in a standard die; 1, 2, 4. If there is two standard dies, then the probability of getting a perfect square is 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9.
There are 4 numbers less than 5 in a standard die, making it 1/4 x 1/4=1/16.

55 L of a gas at 25oC has its temperature increased to 35oC. What is its new volume?

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Approximately 56.8 liters.

Assumption: this gas is an ideal gas, and this change in temperature is an isobaric process.

Explanation:

Assume that the gas here acts like an ideal gas. Assume that this process is isobaric (in other words, pressure on the gas stays the same.) By Charles's Law, the volume of an ideal gas is proportional to its absolute temperature when its pressure is constant. In other words

$\displaystyle V_2 = V_1\cdot \frac{T_2}{T_1}$ ,
