The reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to form water is given as:
The balanced reaction is:
According to the balanced reaction,
4 g of hydrogen () reacts with 32 g of oxygen (
).
So, oxygen reacted with 29.4 g of hydrogen is:
Hence, the mass of oxygen that is reacted with 29.4 g of hydrogen is 235.2 g.
The daughter isotope (a decay product)of O-15 = N-15(Nitrogen 15)
<h3>Further explanation </h3>Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles γ
- positron particles ₁e⁰
O-15 emits positron particles ₁e⁰, so the atomic number decreases by 1, the mass number is the same
Reaction
The mass number of the daughter isotope = 15, atomic number = 7
If we look at the periodic system, the element with atomic number 7 is Nitrogen (N)
