Answer:

C2H5OH(l) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + ?H2O(l)

The coefficient should be 3

Explanation:

C2H5OH(l) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + ?H2O(l)

The chemical equation is a reaction between ethanol and oxygen . The reaction yield is carbon dioxide and water. Balancing the chemical equation requires one to make the number of atoms on the reactant side be equal to the number of atoms on the product side.

C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)

The hydrogen atom on the left hand side of the equation is 6. Therefore, the number of atom of hydrogen should be 6 on the right hand side. The number of oxygen atom on the left hand side is 7. Therefore, the number of Oxygen atom on the right hand side should  7 . Oxygen atom in carbon dioxide(right hand side) is 4 atoms, therefore, it requires 3 atoms of oxygen to make the  oxygen atoms 7.

Using 3 as the coefficient of water in the equation will make hydrogen 6 and oxygen 3 .Adding the 3 oxygen to the already 4 atoms of oxygen in carbon dioxide will make oxygen 7 atoms

Some radioactive nuclides have very short half-lives, for example, I-31 has a half-life of approximately 8 days. Pu-234, by comp
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Here's what I find.

Explanation:

Iodine-131

Iodine-131 is both a beta emitter and a gamma emitter.

_{53}^{131}\text{I}\longrightarrow \, _{54}^{131}\text{Xe} +\, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} +\, _{0}^{0}\gamma

About 90 % of the energy is β-radiation and 10 % is γ-radiation. Both forms are highly energetic.

The main danger is from ingestion. The iodine concentrates in thyroid gland, where the β-radiation destroys cells up to 2 mm from the tissues that absorbed it.

Both the β- and γ-radiation cause cell mutations that can later become cancerous. Small doses, such as those absorbed from the nuclear disasters in the Ukraine and Japan, can cause cancers years after the original iodine has disappeared.

Plutonium-239

Plutonium-239 is an alpha emitter.

_{94}^{239}\text{U} \longrightarrow \, _{92}^{235}\text{Xe} + \, _{2}^{4}\text{He}

Alpha particles cannot penetrate the skin, so external exposure isn't much of a health risk.

However, they are extremely dangerous when they are inhaled and get inside cells. They travel first to the blood or lymph system and later to the bone marrow and liver, where they cause up to 1000 times more chromosomal damage than beta or gamma rays.

It takes about 20 years for plutonium to be eliminated from the liver around 50 years for from the skeleton, so it has a long time to cause damage.

A sample 0.100 moles of a gas is collected at at stp. what is the volume of the gas in liters? group of answer choices 2.44 l
bearhunter [10]

n = 0.100 moles

At STP (standard temperature pressure), where gas is collected, the temperature is 0°C and the pressure is 1 atm.

\\$\therefore$ Temperature $(T)=0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}=0^{\circ}+273

                              =273K

          Pressure $(P)=1$ atm.

The ideal gas equation indicates that

\begin{aligned}& P V=n R T \Rightarrow V=\frac{n R T}{P} \\\therefore & R=\text { gas constant }=0.0821 \mathrm{~L} \cdot \mathrm{cetm} / \mathrm{mo} / \cdot K\end{aligned}

 \begin{aligned}&V=\frac{0.100 \mathrm{~mol} \cdot \times 0.0821 \mathrm{~L} \cdot \mathrm{atm} / \mathrm{mol} . \mathrm{K} \times 273 \mathrm{~K}}{1 \mathrm{~atm}} \\&V=\frac{2.24 L}{1}\end{aligned}\\

V=2.24L

Group of answer choices 2.44L .The volume occupied by  mole of a given gas at a given temperature and pressure is expressed as the gas's molar volume.

The most typical illustration is the molar volume of a gas at STP, which is equal to 2.44L for 1 mole of any ideal gas at a temperature of 273.15 Kand a pressure of 1 atm.

Hence, the volume of the gas is 2.24L.

<h3 /><h3>What is the STP?</h3>

A unit is stated to have a temperature of absolute zero (273 Kelvins) and an atmospheric pressure of one atmosphere, or 1 atm, at standard temperature and pressure. Additionally, at STP, a mole of any gas takes up 22.414 L of space. Keep in mind that this idea only applies to gases.

For experimental measurements to be established under standard conditions that allow for comparisons between various sets of data, standard temperature and pressure must be met.
