develop a hypothesis to explain why the radiation from the 14C source could be shielded more effectively than the radiation from

the 137Cs source. what do your results suggest about the decay mode of each radioactive isotope?

<span>The results suggests that </span>¹³⁷C  is more radioactive and decays faster than ¹⁴C. Also ¹³⁷C penetrates more than ¹⁴C because it has both beta and gamma particle unlike ¹⁴C which has only a beta particle. Gamma particle passes to any kind of material be it fiber glass or metal unlike a beta particle, it cannot pass through these materials.

A sample of CaCO3 (molar mass 100. g) was reported as being 30. percent Ca. Assuming no calcium was present in any impurities, c
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Approximately 75%.

Explanation:

Look up the relative atomic mass of Ca on a modern periodic table:

  • Ca: 40.078.

There are one mole of Ca atoms in each mole of CaCO₃ formula unit.

  • The mass of one mole of CaCO₃ is the same as the molar mass of this compound: \rm 100\; g.
  • The mass of one mole of Ca atoms is (numerically) the same as the relative atomic mass of this element: \rm 40.078\; g.

Calculate the mass ratio of Ca in a pure sample of CaCO₃:

\displaystyle \frac{m(\mathrm{Ca})}{m\left(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\right)} = \frac{40.078}{100} \approx \frac{2}{5}.

Let the mass of the sample be 100 g. This sample of CaCO₃ contains 30% Ca by mass. In that 100 grams of this sample, there would be \rm 30 \% \times 100\; g = 30\; g of Ca atoms. Assuming that the impurity does not contain any Ca. In other words, all these Ca atoms belong to CaCO₃. Apply the ratio \displaystyle \frac{m(\mathrm{Ca})}{m\left(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\right)} \approx \frac{2}{5}:

\begin{aligned} m\left(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\right) &= m(\mathrm{Ca})\left/\frac{m(\mathrm{Ca})}{m\left(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\right)}\right. \cr &\approx 30\; \rm g \left/ \frac{2}{5}\right. \cr &= 75\; \rm g \end{aligned}.

In other words, by these assumptions, 100 grams of this sample would contain 75 grams of CaCO₃. The percentage mass of CaCO₃ in this sample would thus be equal to:

\displaystyle 100\%\times \frac{m\left(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\right)}{m(\text{sample})} = \frac{75}{100} = 75\%.

Idenify each statement below as either oxidation or reduction.
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

1 = oxidation

2 = reduction

Explanation:

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

2I- ----> I₂+ 2e⁻

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

F + e⁻ ----> F⁻

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄  →  Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is  also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.
