Alpha partical is a He nucleus. When decaying alpha particle mass is reduced by 4 and atomic number is reduced by 2.

The actual element which has 102 protons is No (Nobelium). 
Since it has 167 neutrons, the mass = protons + neutrons = 102 + 167 = 269

after an alpha decay, the new element formed has 100 protons which is Fm ( Fermium)

the alpha decaying equation is,

    ₁₀₂²⁶⁹No → ₁₀₀²⁶⁵Fm + ₂⁴α + heat

the total mass and the atomic number( numbe rof protons) must be equal in both sides.

a concentration solution of H2so4 is 59.4% by mass (m/m) and has a density of 1.83 g/mL. How many mL of the solution would be re
Blababa [14]

Answer: 41.5 mL

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in L

Given : 59.4 g of H_2SO_4 in 100 g of solution  

moles of H_2SO_4=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{59.4g}{98g/mol}=0.61

Volume of solution =\frac{\text {mass of solution}}{\text {density of solution}}=\frac{100g}{1.83g/ml}=54.6ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

Molality=\frac{0.61\times 1000}{54.6ml}=11.2M

To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralisation reaction:

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the molarity and volume of stock acid which is H_2SO_4

M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the molarity and volume of dilute acid which is H_2SO_4

We are given:

M_1=11.2M\\V_1=mL\\M_2=0.30M\\V_2=1550mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

11.2\times V_1=0.30\times 1550\\\\V_1=41.5mL

Thus 41.5 mL of the solution would be required to prepare 1550 mL of a .30M solution of the acid

Molarity of 0.50 mol sugar in 270 mL of solution.
EastWind [94]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.85 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Number of moles as 0.50 mol
  • Volume of the solution is 270 ml

But, 1000 mL = 1 L

  • Thus, volume of the solution is 0.27 L

We are required to calculate the molarity of the solution;

  • Molarity refers to the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
  • It is calculated by dividing number of moles with the volume.

Molarity = Moles ÷ Volume

In this case;

Molarity = 0.50 moles ÷ 0.27 L

             = 1.85 Mol/L or 1.85 M

Therefore, molarity of the solution is 1.85 M

b. increase in surface area

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Speeding up a chemical reaction

Required

Factors used to speed up reactions

Solution

There are several factors that influence reaction kinetics :  

1. Concentration  

2. Surface area  

3. Temperature  

4. Catalyst  

5. Pressure  

6. Stirring  

Temperature is related to the kinetic energy of the particles. Heat is absorbed causes the particles of matter to move faster so that the reaction can take place faster

The enlarged surface area of the reactants causes more particles to react with other particles.

50 g square block of sulfur can be broken into small pieces or powdered so that more particles come into contact with each other

What needed to be present in marine mud to form fossil fuels?
UkoKoshka [18]
When organisms and plants died and sank to the bottom of swamps and oceans, brown soil-like materials called peat are formed. Over millions of years, the peat became covered with sand, clay and other minerals and the peat is converted into layers of sedimentary rocks. After a long time, different type of fossil fuels are formed.
