The element number of Fe is 26, which means that the number of neutrons of the following isotopes is: 

<span>53-Fe: 27 </span>
<span>54-Fe: 28 </span>
<span>56-Fe: 30 </span>
<span>57-Fe: 31 </span>
<span>58-Fe: 32 </span>
<span>59-Fe: 33 </span>

<span>Because 53-Fe has too few neutrons when compared to the other isotopes we can rule out any decay that involves losing a neutron: (alpha decay, beta decay) So, this isotope will prefer to decay by electron capture or positron emission (assuming the system has about 1 MeV to spare), but in each case the product will be the same: 53-Mn (long-lived radioisotope). </span>

Write the balanced equation for the ionization of the weak base pyridine, c5h5n , in water, h2o. Phases are optional.
Lelu [443]

The balanced equation for the ionization of the weak base pyridine,C5H5N in water, H2O

C_5H_5N ( aq.) + H2O ( l) ---------> C5H5NH+ (aq.) + OH- (aq.)

<h3>What is the balanced equation for the ionization?</h3>

Generally, Pyridine is characterized by a ring structure, in this characteristic ring structure N is sp2 hybridized, hence creating a lone pair present on N so s - character is more, as well as lone pair, is present.

Therefore, Considering The following functions of the equation:weak base pyridine,C5H5N in water, H2O

We write the balanced equation for the ionization as

C_5H_5N ( aq.) + H2O ( l) ---------> C5H5NH+ (aq.) + OH- (aq.)

How many miles of lead are equal to 9.51 x 10^3 g Pb?
Lemur [1.5K]
Molar mass Pb = 207.2 g/mol

1 mole Pb ------------- 207.2
? mole Pb ------------ 9.51 x 10³

moles = 9.51 x 10³ * 1 / 207.2

moles = 9.51 x 10³ / 207.2

= 45.89 moles

hope this helps!

How many photons are produced in a laser pulse of 0.364 J at 477 nm?
Luda [366]

Answer:

1.00 × 10¹⁸

Explanation:

1. Calculate the <em>energy of one photon</em>

The formula for the energy of a photon is

<em>E</em> = <em>hc</em>/λ  

<em>h</em> = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s; <em>c</em> = 2.998 × 10⁸ m·s⁻¹

λ = 477 nm = 477 × 10⁻⁹ m                              Insert the values

<em>E</em> = (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ × 2.998× 10⁸)/(477 × 10⁻⁹)

<em>E</em> = 4.165× 10⁻¹⁹ J

2. Calculate the <em>number of photons</em>

Divide the total energy by the energy of one photon.

No. of photons = 0.418 × 1/4.165 × 10⁻¹⁹      

No. of photons = 1.00 × 10¹⁸

The vapor pressure of water at 25.0°C is 23.8 torr. Determine the mass of glucose (molar mass = 180 g/mol) needed to add to 500.
mrs_skeptik [129]

According to Raoult's law the relative lowering of vapour pressure of a solution made by dissolving non volatile solute is equal to the mole fraction of the non volatile solute dissolved.

the relative lowering of vapour pressure is the ratio of lowering of vapour pressure and vapour pressure of pure solvent

\frac{p^{0-}p}{p^{0}}=x_{B}

Where

xB = mole fraction of solute=?

p^{0}=23.8torr

p = 22.8 torr

x_{B}=\frac{23.8-22.8}{23.8}=0.042

mole fraction is ratio of moles of solute and total moles of solute and solvent

moles of solvent = mass / molar mass = 500 /18 = 27.78 moles

putting the values

molefraction=\frac{molessolute}{molesolute+molessolvent}

0.042=\frac{molessolute}{27.78+molessolute}

1.167+0.042(molesolute)=molessolute

molessolute=1.218

mass of glucose = moles X molar mass = 1.218 X 180 = 219.24 grams
