When a radioactive atom emits an alpha particle, the original atom's atomic number decreases by four.

1 answer:

5 0

Ya it is true, alpha particle is actually helium atom with no electrons !
He2+ and it has mass of 4 u ....So that is correct !

Explanation:

Ionic equation

NaCl(aq) --> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Na2SO4(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)

In NaCl solution, 1 mole of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution while in Na2SO4, 2 moles of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution.

Molecular weight of NA2SO4 = (23*2) + 32 + (16*4)

= 142 g/mol

Molecular weight of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5 g/mol

Masses

% Mass of NA+ in Na2SO4 = mass of Na+/total mass of Na2SO4 * 100

= 46/142 * 100

= 32.4%

% Mass of NA+ in NaCl = mass of Na+/total mass of NaCl * 100

= 23/58.5 * 100

= 39.3%

Therefore, the % mass of Na+ in NaCl and Na2SO4 are different so it cannot be used.

Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

Using Dimensional Analysis

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 1.7 × 10²⁵ molecules CaF

[Solve] moles CaF

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

[DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 1.7 \cdot 10^{25} \ molecules \ CaF(\frac{1 \ mol \ CaF}{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ CaF})$
[DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 28.2298 \ moles \ CaF$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.</em>

28.2298 mol CaF ≈ 28 mol CaF
