Nuclear decay is the decay of atoms on the atomic scale. “Radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Three of the most common types of decay are alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay, all of which involve emitting one or more particles or photons.”
Answer:
Q = 30355.2 J
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of ice = 120 g
Initial temperature = -5°C
Final temperature = 115°C
Energy required = ?
Solution:
Specific heat capacity of ice is = 2.108 j/g.°C
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
Q = m.c. ΔT
ΔT = T2 -T1
ΔT = 115 - (-5°C)
ΔT = 120 °C
Q = 120 g × 2.108 j/g.°C × 120 °C
Q = 30355.2 J
Answer: This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:
3 C-II - 12 e- → 3 CII (oxidation)
4 CrVI + 12 e- → 4 CrIII (reduction)
C2H5OH is a reducing agent, K2Cr2O7 is an oxidizing agent.
