How would you determine which isotope pair to use for a particular material?

Chemistry
1 answer:
VLD [36.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Different types of isotopes are used for different materials or objects. For radiometric dating, uranium-235 is considered best for it while carbon-14 is used for dating of rocks. It is also used for dating of wood samples.

Explanation:

Carbon-14 and uranium-235 are used for different materials or objects for measuring the age of these materials. These two isotopes are radioactive in nature which means they emit gamma radiations which allow us to find the age of different objects. Carbon-14 has a low half life so it can be used for those objects which are present before thousands of years while uranium-235 is used for materials which are millions of years old due to high half life.

Explain why the process of dissolution can be exothermic or endothermic (heat of solution) with different solutes
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The process of dissolving is exothermic when more energy is released when water molecules “bond” to the solute than is used to pull the solute apart. Because more energy is released than is used, the molecules of the solution move faster, making the temperature increase.

Project the image Endothermic Dissolving.

The process of dissolving is endothermic when less energy is released when water molecules “bond” to the solute than is used to pull the solute apart. Because less energy is released than is used, the molecules of the solution move more slowly, making the temperature decrease.

Select the name of the element with a condensed ground-state electron configuration of [kr] 5s14d7.
Vilka [71]

elements have equal number of protons and neutrons

the condensed format is when the closest noble gas with the closest electron configuration is given, this closest noble gas atomic number should be lesser than the atoms atomic number

atomic number of Kr is 36

1 electron in 5s subshell and 7 electrons in 4d subshell.

there's a total of 36 + 1 + 7 = 44 electrons

atomic number of the atom is 44

element with atomic number 44 is Ruthenium - Ru

answer is Ru

Why isn't hess's law helpful for calculating the heat of reaction involved in the conversion of diamond to graphite?
faust18 [17]
Hess' Law of Constant Heat Summation was developed by Germain Henri Hess who lived from 1802 - 1850. This law became important primarily for his thermochemical studies. This law states that the heat released or absorbed in the chemical reaction is unchanged or the same irregardless of how many steps the reactants take in order to convert to products.

This law is not applicable or not helpful in the conversion of diamond to graphite because both are just allotropes of carbon along with C60 (Buckminsterfullerene or buckyball), C540, C70, amorphous carbon, and carbon nanotube.
