Answer:

A radioactive isotope, also known as a radioisotope, radionuclide, or radioactive nuclide, is any of several species of the same chemical element with different masses whose nuclei are unstable and dissipate excess energy by spontaneously emitting radiation in the form of alpha, beta, and gamma rays.

A same chemical element with different masses. It is also unstable and can release tons of energy which would emit radiation.

Hydrofluoric acid is what type of acid?

posledela

Hydrofluoric acid is a solution of hydrogen fluoride (HF) in water. Solutions of HF are colourless, acidic and highly corrosive. It is used to make most fluorine-containing compounds; examples include the commonly used pharmaceutical antidepressant medication fluoxetine (Prozac) and the material PTFE (Teflon).

A chemist prepares a solution by adding 258 mg of K2Cr2O7 (MW = 294.19 g/mol ) to a volumetric flask, and then adding water unti

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: Molarity of the prepared solution is $1.75\times 10^{-3}mole/L$

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

$Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}$

where,

n= moles of solute

$V_s$ = volume of solution in ml = 500 ml

moles of solute = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{0.258g}{294.19g/mol}=8.77\times 10^{-4}mol$

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

$Molarity=\frac{8.77\times 10^{-4}moles\times 1000}{500ml}=1.75\times 10^{-3}mole/L$

Thus molarity of the prepared solution is $1.75\times 10^{-3}mole/L$

Ain___accepts electrons and becomes___

Serga [27]

Answer:

An atom accepts electrons and becomes an anion.

Explanation:

Atomic number = number of electrons = number of protons.

Atomic number of sodium is 11

So the atom contains 11 protons and 11 electrons

To find the number of neutrons we make use of the formula

Mass number - atomic number = number of neutrons

From the periodic table, we know mass number of sodium is 23

So number of neutron = 23 - 11 = 12.

When a sodium atom loses an electron it will have 11 positive protons and 10 negative electrons. Since 1 positive charge is more, Na becomes $Na^+$ .

Positively charged ion is called as cation

Chlorine's atomic number is 17 so it has 17 protons and 17 electrons.

When it gains an electrons, it will have 17 positive protons and 18 negative electrons. Since 1 negative charge is more, Cl becomes $Cl^-$ .

Negatively charged ion is called as anion.
