When Americium (Am-241) undergoes alpha decay(He-4) it forms neptunium (Np-237) based on the following pathway:
²⁴¹Am₉₅ → ²³⁷Np₉₃ + ⁴He₂
The energy released in given as:
ΔE = Δmc²
where Δm = mass of products - mass of reactants
= [m(Np-237) + m(He-4)] - [m(Am-241)]
= 237.0482+4.0015-241.0568 = -0.0073 g/mol = -7.3 * 10⁻⁶ kg/mol
ΔE = -7.3*10⁻⁶ kg/mol * (3*10⁸ m/s)² = -5.84*10¹¹ J/mol

Buffers - mixtures of conjugate acid and conjugate base at ±1 pH unit from pH = pKa. Resistant to changes in pH in response to small additions of H+ or OH-. ... Polyprotic acids - dissociation of each H+ can be treated separately if the pKa values are different
From the equation of the reaction; for every 1 mole of copper, the reaction uses 2 moles of silver nitrate.
<h3>What is a reaction?</h3>
A chemical reaction involves the transformation of one chemical specie into another. The reaction is not shown here hence the question is incomplete.
However, the reaction should be of the sort; Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + Cu. Thus, for every 1 mole of copper, the reaction uses 2 moles of silver nitrate.
