Uranium has atomic number 92. Its most common isotope is 238U, but the form used in nuclear bombs and nuclear power plants is 23

5U. How many neutrons are in each of these two isotopes of uranium

Explanation:

Atomic Number = Number of protons

Mass Number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Isotopes are simply atoms of an element with the same number of protons and different number of neutrons.

First Isotope -- 238U

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

Number of neutrons = 238 - 92 = 146

Second Isotope -- 235U

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

Number of neutrons = 235 - 92 = 143

A glucose solution is administered intravenously into the bloodstream at a constant rate r. As the glucose is added, it is conve

Helen [10]

Answer:

$C(t)=\frac{r}{k}-(\frac{r-kC_o}{k})e^{-kt}$

Explanation:

The differential equation is given as:

$\frac{dC}{dt} = r- kC$

$\frac{dC}{r- kC} = dt$

Taking integral of both sides; we have:

$\int\limits \frac{dC}{r- kC} = \int\limits dt$

$-\frac{1}{k} In(r-kC) = t+D\\In(r-kC)=-kt-kD$

$r-kC=e^{-kt-kD}$

$r-kC=e^{-kt}e^{-kD}$

$r-kC=Ae^{-kt}$

$kC=r-Ae^{-kt}$

$C=\frac{r}{k}-\frac{A}{k}e^{-kt}$

$C(t)=\frac{r}{k}-\frac{A}{k}e^{-kt}$ ------- equation (1)

If C(0)= $C_o$ ; we have:

C(0)= $\frac{r}{k}-\frac{A}{k}e^0$ (where; A is an integration constant)

$C_o = \frac{r}{k}- \frac{A}{k}$

$C_o=\frac{r-A}{k}$

$kC_o=r-A$

$A=r-kC_o$

Substituting $A=r-kC_o$ into equation (1); we have;

$C(t)=\frac{r}{k}-(\frac{r-kC_o}{k})e^{-kt}$

To what volume (in milliliters) should you dilute 100.0 mL of a 5.50 M solution of CaCl2 solution to obtain a 0.950 M solution o

Alexxx [7]

Dilution law is given as:

$M_{1}V_{1}=M_{2}V_{2}$ (1)

where, $M_{1}$ = molarity of initial concentrated solution.

$V_{1}$ = volume of initial concentrated solution.

$M_{2}$ = molarity of final diluted solution.

tex]V_{2}[/tex] = volume of final diluted solution.

Volume of initial concentrated solution of $CaCl_{2}$ = 100.0 mL

Molarity of initial concentrated solution of $CaCl_{2}$ = 5.50 M

Volume of final diluted solution of $CaCl_{2}$ = 0.950 M

Put the values in formula (1),

$5.50 M\times 100.0 mL=0.950 M\times V_{2}$

$V_{2} =\frac{5.50 M\times 100.0 mL}{0.950 M}$

$V_{2} =578.9 mL$

Hence, final diluted volume of the solution is $578.9 mL$ .

The chemical equation below shows the reaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH). CO2 + 2LiOH mc011-1.jp

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

From the given balanced chemical equation,
CO2 + 2LiOH --> Li2CO3 + H2O
we can conclude that for every 2 moles of LiOH, we need a mole of CO2. Calculate first the number of moles of CO2 by dividing the given mass by the molar mass giving us an answer of 0.58 moles. Using proportionality,
0.58 / x = 1 / 2
The value of x is equal to 1.16 moles.
