Answer:

N₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻ → N₂H₄(aq)

Explanation:

The half reaction for the reaction for the reduction of gaseous nitrogen to aqueous hydrazine is;

N₂(g) → N₂H₄(aq)

The balancing the atoms in the half reaction. Hydrogen atom is balanced by adding hydrogen ions (H⁺)

We have;

N₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) → N₂H₄(aq)

Then we balance the charge on both sides by adding electrons where the positive charge is greater;

we have;

N₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻ → N₂H₄(aq)

Which radioactive emission has the smallest (least) mass? Question options:

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The answer is D. gamma rays

Explanation:

A radioactive atom can have three different types of emission:

alpha particles (α) = they have a mass of 4 amu and they have a very low penetrating power.

Beta particles (β) = they have 5x $10^{-4}$ amu and they have an intermediate penetrating power

Gamma rays (γ) = they are not particles basically just energy so its mass is ≈ 0 and its penetrating power is higher

For this reason Gamma emissions (γ) has the smallest mass value.

what is the structure of XeO2F2???i know its hybridization as sp3d but cannot quite understand its diagram in free space,help an

skelet666 [1.2K]

The shape of XeO₂F₂ is Trigonal bi-pyramidal see-saw tetrahedron (see attached pictures)
- As you said the hybridization of Xe here is sp³d so its geometry has to be Trigonal bi-pyramidal in which F atom located on axial positions but for the final shape we exclude lone pair on Xe to give see-saw shape (see second picture)
- Remember that we have 5 pairs (4 bond pairs + 1 lone pair) and we have to place lone pair at equatorial position.

Use the problem below to answer the question: How many grams of H2 would be formed if 34 grams of carbon reacted with an unlimit

Pavlova-9 [17]

34g C * ( 1 mol / 12.0107 ) * ( 1 mol H2 / 1 mol C ) * ( <span>2.01588 g / 1 mol H2 ) = 5.70657164028741 g H2 = 5.7 g H2

Convert grams of C to moles of C using the given amount of grams and the molar mass ( 12.0107 g/mol ).

Gather the mole ratio from the coefficients in the balanced equation and multiply by the ratio.
