What is the significant figure of 0.052301 km

A force of 25 newtons is exerted over an area of 50 square meters. Calculate

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

the pressure exerted in pascals is 0.5 Pa

Explanation:

The computation of the pressure exerted in pascals is shown below:

As we know that

Pressure = force ÷ area

= 25 ÷ 50

= 0.5 Pa

Hence, the pressure exerted in pascals is 0.5 Pa

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct pressure could come

Many oxidation-reduction reactions can be balanced by inspection. Try to balance the following reactions by inspection. In each

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Balanced reaction: C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

Reduced: O₂

Oxidized : C₃H₈

Explanation:

For the given reaction:

C₃H₈(g) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)

In the reactants, there are 3 C, and in the products only one, so we multiply CO₂ by 3:

C₃H₈(g) + O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)

In the reactants, there are 8 H, and in the products, there are 2 H, so we multiply H₂O by 4:

C₃H₈(g) + O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

In the reactants are 2 O, and in the products 10 O, so we multiply O₂ by 5:

C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

The reaction is balanced.

Let's identify the oxidation number (Nox) of the elements in each compound.

C₃H₈:

H has fix Nox equal to +1, and the molecule is neutral, so, calling x the Nox of C:

3x + 8 = 0

3x = -8

x = -8/3

O₂:

Because is a pure compound, the Nox of O is 0.

CO₂:

The Nox of O is fix equal to -2, and the molecule is neutral, so, calling x the Nox of C:

2x -4 = 0

2x = 4

x = +2

H₂O:

The Nox of H and O are fixed, respectively, +1 and -2.

So, the carbon in C₃H₈ is oxidized because its Nox is increasing, and oxygen in O₂ is reduced because its Nox is decreasing.

What happens to isotopes that are unstable?

Lesechka [4]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are defined as the chemical species of the same element which differs in the number of neutrons. The isotopes which are unstable are known as radioactive isotope. A radioactive (unstable )isotope can undergo 3 decay process:

1. Alpha Decay: In this decay process, a larger nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The particle released has a charge of +2 and a mass of 4 units.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}Y+_2^4\alpha$

2. Beta-minus decay: In this decay process, a neutron gets converted into a proton and an electron. the particle released during this process is a beta-particle.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

3. Beta-plus decay: In this decay process, a protons gets converted into a neutron and electron-neutrino particle. The particle released during this process is a positron particle.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{+1}^0\beta$

Isotopes which are unstable in nature can undergo these 3 decay processes.
