Technetium-99m, a “metastable” nuclide of

1 answer:

4 0

In beta decay, a neutron is transformed into a proton via emission of an electron. This means that the total nucleon number remains the same; however, the proton number is increased by one (and the neutron number decreases by one). Therefore, the parent atom must also have mass number 99 but be of one less atomic number.
The atomic number of Tc is 43 and proton number 42 is Mo. Therefore, the answer is:
99Mo

Draw structures from the following names, and determine which compounds are optically active:(c) 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane

dolphi86 [110]

The given compound 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane is an optically active compound .

Because this compound does not have plane of symmetry (POS) and center of symmetry (COS) i.e. does not have di-symmetry . And also forms non superimposable mirror image . the compound is optically active .

It has chiral center.

Here , the chiral carbon is attached to the 4 distinct groups such as : methyl , ethyl , bromine , bromomethane .

<h3>What is di-symmetry?</h3>

Di-symmetry is that which have no center of symmetry and plane of symmetry and alternate axis of symmetry .

<h3>Chiral center :</h3>

Have Sp3 hybridized center (4sigma bond ) .

4 distinct group is attached to the chiral atom. form non -superimposable mirror image .

<h3>What is optical isomerism ?</h3>

Same molecular formula and same structural formula . also have same physical and chemical properties .

They differ in their behavior towards plane polarized light (ppl) .

Which molecule is most polar? <br> A) CH3CHO<br> B)CO2<br> C)CH3Cl<br> D)C2H6<br> E)NONE

Anit [1.1K]

the answer is none

Explanation:

Water

Water is the most polar molecule because a bond between oxygen and hydrogen has the most difference out of the atoms listed. Although the oxygen has two hydrogens bonded, this does not decrease the electronegativity of oxygen, but oxygen unfairly shares sets of electrons from both hydrogens, making it more polar still

A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter filled with water. The

True [87]

First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g

Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.

-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC
