What kind of high energy radiation is released from nuclear reaction ?

1 answer:

8 0

The energy released in a nuclear reaction may appear only in one of these three ways Kinetic energy of the products. The emission of gamma rays. And gamma rays are emitted by unstable nuclei in their own transition that is from a high energy state that than goes to a lower energy state that is properly known as gamma decay.

A 50.0g g sample of 16n decays to 12.5g in 14.4 seconds. What is its half life

mixas84 [53]

T is amount after time t
Ao is initial amount 
t is time 
HL is half life 

log (At) = log [ Ao x (1/2)^(t/HL) ] 
log (At) = log Ao + log (1/2)^(t/HL) 
log (At) = log Ao + (t/HL) x log (1/2) 

( log At - log Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL 
log (At/Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL 

HL = t / [( log (At / Ao)) / log (1/2) ] 

HL = 14.4 s / [ ( log (12.5 / 50) / log (1/2) ] 

HL = 14.4 s / 2 = 7.2 seconds

In the first law of thermodynamics, △E = Q-w, what does △E stand for?

Damm [24]

Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

First law of thermodynamics states that the energy can neither be destroyed not be formed but it can only be transformed from one form to another.

Here, the internal energy of the system is being transformed to the heat energy and the work done by the system. The equation used to represent first law of thermodynamic is:

$\Delta E=Q-w$

where,

$\Delta E$ represents the internal energy of the system.

Q = heat released or absorbed by the system.

w = work done by or on the system.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

How many atoms are present in a sample of Potassium (K) weighing 33.49g?

madam [21]

Answer:

5.158 × 10²³ atoms K

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic Table
Using Dimensional Analysis
Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

33.49 g K

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of K - 39.10 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

$33.49 \ g \ K(\frac{1 \ mol \ K}{39.10 \ g \ K} )(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ K}{1 \ mol \ K} )$ = 5.15797 × 10²³ atoms K

Step 4: Check

We are given 4 sig figs. Follow sig figs and round.

5.15797 × 10²³ atoms K ≈ 5.158 × 10²³ atoms K

The mass in grams of C in 275 g of C3H6

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Mass of carbon = 236.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₃H₆ = 275 g

Mass of C = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Mass of carbon = molar mass of carbon/ molar mass of compound × mass of compound

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of compound = 42 g/mol

Mass of carbon = 36 g/mol / 42 g/mol × 275 g

Mass of carbon = 0.86 × 275 g

Mass of carbon = 236.5 g
