Radon-219 decays to radon-218 by releasing... a. a positron b.a muon O c. a neutron O d. an electron O e. a proton
MrRa [10]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A positron is denoted as ^{0}_{+1}e, a neutron is denoted as ^{1}_{0}n, an electron is denoted as ^{0}_{-1}e, and a proton is denoted as ^{1}_{1}p.

Therefore, when ^{219}Rn will decay into ^{218}Rn this means there occurs decrease in its mass number. Hence, it means a neutron will be releasing during this reaction.

The reaction will be as follows.

                ^{219}Rn \rightarrow ^{218}Rn + ^{1}_{0}n

A piece of iron is heated to 120'C then placed in a calorimeter containing 50g of water. The water temperature is raised from 30
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Mass of iron = 59.375 gm

Explanation:

Calories ( or joules) are added to the water by the hot steel so at the endpoint they are BOTH at 40 C

 The water gains:

     4.18  j/g-C  * 50 * (40-30 C) = 2090 j

The steel gave up 2090 j going from 120 to 40 C

2090 = .44 j/g-C  * m * (120-40)    solve fro m = 59.375 gm

1. If you have a sample of gas at a pressure of 16 atm, what will the pressure be if the volume is halved?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

1. The pressure will be 32 atm, twice the initial pressure.

2. The pressure will be 1.83 atm, one third of the initial pressure.

Explanation:

Boyle's law is one of the gas laws that relates the volume and pressure of a certain quantity of gas kept at a constant temperature.

This law says that "The volume occupied by a given gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure." This means that if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

Pressure * Volume = constant

or P * V = k

Ahora es posible suponer que tienes un cierto volumen de gas V1 que se encuentra a una presión P1 al comienzo del experimento. Si varias el volumen de gas hasta un nuevo valor V2, entonces la presión cambiará a P2, y se cumplirá:

P1*V1=P2*V2

1. In this case:

  • P1= 16 atm
  • V1
  • P2= ?
  • V2= V1÷2= \frac{V1}{2} because the volume is halved.

So:

16 atm*V1= P2* \frac{V1}{2}

Solving:

\frac{16 atm*V1*2}{V1}=P2

16 atm*2= P2

32 atm= P2

<u><em>The pressure will be 32 atm, twice the initial pressure.</em></u>

2. Now

  • P1= 5.5 atm
  • V1
  • P2= ?
  • V2= V1*3 because the volume is tripled.

So:

5.5 atm*V1= P2* V1*3

Solving:

\frac{5.5 atm*V1}{3*V1}=P2

\frac{5.5 atm}{3}= P2

1.83 atm= P2

<u><em>The pressure will be 1.83 atm, one third of the initial pressure.</em></u>

Why is fractional distillation not used to produce drinking water from sea water?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Please mark me brainliest. the answer is

Explanation:

The problem is that the desalination of water requires a lot of energy. Salt dissolves very easily in water, forming strong chemical bonds, and those bonds are difficult to break. Energy and the technology to desalinate water are both expensive, and this means that desalinating water can be pretty costly.
