When 11.12 g of neon is combined in a 100 L container at 80oC with 9.59 g of argon, what is the mole fraction of argon?

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "0.3."

Here it is how to solve.
Molecular mass of Ar = 40
Molecular mass of Ne = 20
Number of moles of Ar = 9.59/40 = 0.239
Number of moles of Ne = 11.12/20= 0.556
Mole fraction of argon = 0.239/ ( 0.239 + 0.556) = 0.3

Which is a characteristic of nuclear fission

icang [17]

1. A heavy nucleus (U235 or Pu239), when bombarded by slow moving neutrons, split into two
or more nuclei.
2. Two or more neutrons are produced by fission of each nucleus.
3. Huge amount of energy is produced as a result of nuclear fission.
4. All the fission fragments are radioactive, giving off β and radiations.
5. The atomic weights of fission products range from about 70 to 160.
6. The nuclear chain reactions can be controlled and maintained steadily by absorbing a
desired number of neutrons. This process is used in nuclear reactor.
7. All the fission reactions are self-propagating chain-reactions because fission products contain 
neutrons (secondary neutrons) which further cause fission in other nuclei.
8. Every secondary neutron, released in the fission process, does not strike a nucleus, some
escape into air and hence a chain reaction cannot be maintained.
9. The number of neutrons, resulting from a single fission, is known as the multiplication factor. 
When the multiplication factor is less than 1, a chain reaction does not take place.
10. The control of chain reaction is necessary in order to maintain a steady reaction. This is 
carried out by absorbing a desired number of neutron by employing materials like
percentage of Cd, B or steel.
11. In a nuclear reactor, the multifactor is one. This is achieved by proper arrangement of
fissionable materials.

How much of a 400g sample remains after 4 years if a radioactive isotope has a half-life of 2 years?

timama [110]

Answer:

100 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Original amount (N₀) = 400 g

Time (t) = 4 years

Half-life (t½) = 2 years

Amount remaining (N) =?

Next, we shall determine the number of half-lives that has elapse. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) = 4 years

Half-life (t½) = 2 years

Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 4 / 2

n = 2

Thus, 2 half-lives has elapsed.

Finally, we shall determine the amount remaining of the radioactive isotope. This can be obtained as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 400 g

Number of half-lives (n) = 2

Amount remaining (N) =?

N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀

N = 1/2² × 400

N = 1/4 × 400

N = 0.25 × 400

N = 100 g

Thus, the amount of the radioactive isotope remaing is the 100 g.

The pK1, pK2, and pKR of the amino acid lysine are 2.2, 9.1, and 10.5, respectively. The pK1, pK2, and pKR of the amino acid arg

almond37 [142]

Answer:

pH 9,8 is likely to work best for this separation

Explanation:

Ion exchange chromatography is a chemical process where molecules are separated by affinity to an ion exchange resin. To separate different aminoacids you must use the isoelectric point (That is the pH where the aminoacid will be in its neutral form).

For lysine, PI is:

$pH = \frac{1}{2} (9,1+10,5) =$ 9,8

For arginine:

$pH = \frac{1}{2} (9,0+12,5) =$ 10,75

At pH = 9,8 lysine will be in its neutral form and will not be retain in the column but arginine will be in +1 charge being retained by the ion exchange resin.

Thus, pH 9,8 is likely to work best for this separation

I hope it helps!
