The relationship of radiation with distance obeys the inverse square law. Therefore, doubling the distance decrease the radiation by a factor of 4. The new count is 250.
1) Applying the same principle, the count decreases by a factor of 100. The new count is 10
2) An alpha particle is 4He2 and the Hydrogen can be represented as 1H1
14N7 + 4He2 - 1H1
= 17X8
Proton number 8 belongs to Oxygen. Therefore, the resultant nucleus is:
17O8
3) 185Au79 - 4He2
= 181Ir77
4) X - 4He2 = 234Th90
X = 238U92
5) Beta emission results in the same nucleon number but an increase in the proton number; therefore, the result is:
234Pa91

Answer:

Explanation:

The changes in temperature caused by a reaction, combined with the values of the specific heat and the mass of the reacting system, makes it possible to determine the heat of reaction.

Heat energy can be measured by observing how the temperature of a known mass of water (or other substance) changes when heat is added or removed. This is basically how most heats of reaction are determined. The reaction is carried out in some insulated container, where the heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction causes the temperature of the contents to change. This temperature change is measured and the amount of heat that caused the change is calculated by multiplying the temperature change by the heat capacity of the system.

The apparatus used to measure the temperature change for a reacting system is called a calorimeter (that is, a calorie meter). The science of using such a device and the data obtained with it is called calorimetry. The design of a calorimeter is not standard and different calorimeters are used for the amount of precision required. One very simple design used in many general chemistry labs is the styrofoam "coffee cup" calorimeter, which usually consists of two nested styrofoam cups.

When a reaction occurs at constant pressure inside a Styrofoam coffee-cup calorimeter, the enthalpy change involves heat, and little heat is lost to the lab (or gained from it). If the reaction evolves heat, for example, very nearly all of it stays inside the calorimeter, the amount of heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction is calculated.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Being a weak acid and a strong base, where it is diluted in a neutral medium such as water, the basic medium predominates, almost alkaline pH.

Explanation:

The acidity of the solution, being weak, means that its pH is not so low, therefore it will be easier to reach the values of 7 or 7 where alkalinity or basity is indicated.
