rusak2 [61]3 years ago
6 0

Deuterium has one proton and one neutron, 12H, while tritium has one proton and two neutrons, 13H.

(The word isotope refers to a nucleus with the same Z but different A). ... They each have one single proton (Z = 1), but differ in the number of their neutrons. Hydrogen has no neutron, deuterium has one, and tritium has two neutrons. The isotopes of hydrogen have, respectively, mass numbers of one, two, and three.

What is nacl monosaccharide disaccharide organic or inorganic?
bonufazy [111]
<span>inorganic Let's look at the choices and see why they work, or don't work. monosaccharide * Otherwise known as a simple sugar. And NaCl is definitely not a sugar of any type. So this is wrong. disaccharide * Complex sugar. And NaCl doesn't qualify either. organic * A definition of an organic compound is one that has carbon in it. NaCl has sodium and chlorine. No carbon at all, so this isn't the right answer. And I wish that organic was an earlier choice, since the sugars mentioned above are organic compounds. inorganic * This is the only possible choice. Salt is not an organic compound since it doesn't have carbon. So it can't be a sugar either. But it can and is inorganic.</span>

Calculate how much heat is absorbed by a sample that weighs 12 kilograms, has a specific heat of 0.231 kg/CJ, and is heated from
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

97 J

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of the sample (m): 12 kg
  • Specific heat capacity (c): 0.231 J/kg.°C (this can also be expressed as 0.231 J/kg.K)
  • Initial temperature: 45 K
  • Final temperature: 80 K

Step 2: Calculate the temperature change

ΔT = 80 K - 45 K = 35 K

Step 3: Calculate the heat required (Q)

We will use the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

Q = 0.231 J/kg.K × 12 kg × 35 K = 97 J

Archeologists can determine the age of artifacts made of wood or bone by measuring the amount of the radioactive isotope 14C pre
Ahat [919]

Answer: The age of the tool is 15539 years

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100

a - x = amount left after decay process = \frac{15.5}{100}\times 100=15.5  

a) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.  

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{5730yr}=0.00012yr^{-1}

b) for 15.5 % of original amount

t=\frac{2.303}{0.00012}\log\frac{100}{15.5}

t=15539years

Thus age of the tool is 15539 years
