Anastaziya [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

228

Explanation:

alpha decay is removing alpha particle _2^{4}He

2 number of protons, 4 mass number = 2 protons + 2 neutrons

We have

      90 protons and 142 neutrons

<u>       - 2 protons         -  2 neutrons</u>

      88 protons         140 neutrons

Mass number of new (daughter) atom = 88 +140 = 228

Real life example of when temperature increases, then the pressure increases.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Tyre

In cold weather, you might have regularly kept a check on the pressure of the tyres of your car. Driving increases the temperature of the tyres, and, therefore, the air inside the tyre warms and expands. When you measure the pressure of the tyres at the time when you have just driven the car, it will be high. However, in cold weather, the pressure of the tyres will be low. So, it is recommended that you should always measure the pressure of the tyres.

The car wit fastest acceleration is the tempest. it has an acceleration of 6.1 m/s. suppose the car accelerates from rest to a f
ziro4ka [17]

<u>Given:</u>

Initial velocity (v1) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v2) = 30 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 6.1 m/s2

<u>To determine:</u>

The time (t) taken to reach the final speed

<u>Explanation:</u>

Use the relation:

Acceleration (a) = [final velocity(v2) - initial velocity (v1)]/time (t)

t = (v2-v1)/a = 30-0/6.1 = 4.92 s

Ans: Time taken is around 4.9 s

How many grams are in 1.70 moles of Ca(NO3)2?
Andru [333]

The number of grams in 1.70 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ is 384.2 grams

<h3>How to determine the mass of Ca(NO₃)₂</h3>

The mole of a substance is related to it's mass and molar mass according to the following equation:

Mole = mass / molar mass

With the above formula, we can determine the mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ as illustrated below:

  • Mole of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 1.70 moles
  • Molar mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 40 + 3[14 + (16 × 3)] = 40 + 3[14 + 48] = 40 + 3(62) = 40 + 186 = 226 g/mol
  • Mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = ?

Mole = mass / molar mass

1.70 = Mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ / 226

Cross multiply

Mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 1.70 × 226

Mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 384.2 grams

Thus, the mass of 1.70 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ is 384.2 grams
