Answer:

A) conductors

Explanation:

Correct

A) conductors (for electricity)

Although pure water is actually an insulator, the question does not say "pure" water. Water usually has other substances in it that are not H₂O, like salt and dissolved minerals, making it a conductor. Aluminum and steel are both metals, which are conductors.

Incorrect

B) heat : Steel and aluminum are both metals, which heat up and cool down quickly. Water is slow to heat up and cool down, which is why the temperature of cities near water has lower ranges.

C) insulators : The metals steel and aluminum are not insulators. Pure water is an insulator, but water is usually not pure because it contains other substances.

D) metals: Although steel and aluminum are metals, water is not considered a metal (but it may contain very small metallic substances in it).

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles

Explanation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

$\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles$

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms = $\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}$

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

$N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}$

Where $N_t$ =atoms left undecayed

$N_0$ = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

${t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$ = half life = 30.0 years = $1.577\times 10^7$ minutes

The fraction that decays : $1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}$

Amount of particles that decay is = $0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}$

Thus $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.

Why does Energy appear continuous in everyday life?

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The first law of thermodynamics, also known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. For example, turning on a light would seem to produce energy; however, it is electrical energy that is converted. Nothing happens to the energy. It does not change form, since energy has no form. ... If the energy was moving, it gets stored or re-transmitted elsewhere. Using energy means controlling its movement, rather than consuming it.
