Neptunium-237 was the first isotope of a transuranium element to be discovered. the decay constant is /s. what is the half-life
kari74 [83]

The half-life in years of Neptunium-237 which was the first isotope is 2.1 10^{6} years.

Neptunium is most stable and Neptunium-237 is undergoes alpha decay, it means Neptunium-237 is decays by the emission of alpha particles . Seven alpha particles is emitted during decay of  Neptunium-237.  Neptunium-237 is radioactive actinide  elements and first  transuranium element.

The transuranium synthesis process involves creating a transuranium element through the transmutation process . The transmutation process  is the process of creating heavy elements from light elements. Hence the process is the transmutation of light elements. There are two types: artificial and natural transmutation.

. Each antibody is designed to fight off how many pathogens
Alex_Xolod [135]
Antibodies can destroy pathogens by (i) binding to and blocking the pathogen's receptors, thus causing neutralization of the pathogen, (ii) binding to the pathogen and activating complement, and (iii) binding to the pathogen and facilitating its opsonization and uptake by macrophages, which utilize their Fc receptors ...

Rationalize the difference in boiling points between the members of the following pairs of substances. Part APart complete HF (2
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

HF has the higher boiling point because HF molecules are more polar. Part B: CHBr3 molecules possess stronger intermolecular interaction due to higher molar mass than CHCl3

Explanation:

Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. This implies that HF is more polar and possess stronger hydrogen bonds than HCl molecules.

In part B, the magnitude of dispersion forces depend on molar mass, the greater the molar mass, the greater the magnitude of dispersion forces between molecules, hence CHBr3 has a greater boiling point than CHCl3

The vapor above a mixture of pentane and hexane at room temperature contains 35.5% pentane by mass. What is the mass percent com
FrozenT [24]
  • The mass percent of Pentane in solution is 16.49%
  • The mass percent of Hexane in solution is 83.51%

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Take 1 kg basis for the vapor: 35.5 mass% pentane = 355 g pentane with 645 g hexane.
  • Convert these values to mol% using their molecular weights:

Pentane: Mp = 72.15 g/mol -> 355g/72.15 g/mol = 4.92mol

Hexane: Mh = 86.18 g/mol -> 645g/86.18 g/mol = 7.48mol

Pentane mol%: yp = 4.92/(4.92+7.48) = 39.68%

Hexane mol%: yh = 100 - 39.68 = 60.32%

Pp-vap = 425 torr = 0.555atm

Ph-vap = 151 torr = 0.199atm

  • From Raoult's law we know:  

Pp = xp \times Pp - vap = yp \times Pt                                       (1)

Ph = xh \times Ph - vap = yh \times Pt                                       (2)

  • Since it is a binary mixture we can write xh = (1 - xp) and yh = (1 - yp), therefore (2) becomes:

(1 - xp) \times Ph - vap = (1 - yp) \times Pt                                   (3)

  • Substituting (1) into (3) we get:

(1-xp) \times Ph - vap = (1 - yp) \times xp \times Pp - vap / yp            (4)

  • Rearrange for xp:

xp = Ph - vap / (Pp - vap/yp - Pp - vap + Ph - vap)      (5)

  • Subbing in the values we find:

Pentane mol% in solution: xp = 19.08%  

Hexane mol% in solution: xh = 80.92%

  • Now for converting these mol% to mass%, take 1 mol basis for the solution and multiplying it by molar mass:

mp = 0.1908 mol \times 72.15 g/mol

     = 13.766 g

mh = 0.8092 mol \times 86.18 g/mol

     = 69.737 g

  • Mass% of Pentane solution = 13.766/(13.766+69.737)

                                                       = 16.49%

  • Mass% of Hexane solution  = 83.51%
