A sample of an uranium compound is found to be losing mass gradually. Explain what is happening to the sample.​
yan [13]

Answer:

The uranium in the sample of the compound is radioactive

Explanation:

Some atoms can split on their own. Some split when bombarded by energetic particles. Such atoms are said to be radioactive.

Radioactivity is borne out of the drive of an atom to reach stabillity. Every atom have a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures stability of the nucleus. A nucleus with a stability ratio different from that which makes it stable will become unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with emissons of energetic particles.

Note: neutrons and protons dictates the mass of an atom. They are located in the nucleus which is the site for nuclear radioactive reactions.

What is the definition of enriched uranium
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Enriched uranium-

Explanation:

Enriched uranium is a type of uranium in which the percent composition of uranium-235 (written ²³⁵U) has been increased through the process of isotope separation. Naturally occurring uranium is composed of three major isotopes: uranium-238 (²³⁸U with 99.2739–99.2752% natural abundance), uranium-235 (²³⁵U, 0.7198–0.7202%), and uranium-234 (²³⁴U, 0.0050–0.0059%). U is the only nuclide existing in nature (in any appreciable amount) that is fissile with thermal neutrons.

What is the identity of the element, and how many neutrons does it have? An elements most stable ion forms an ionic compound wit
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. CA, 14

Explanation:

Atoms of elements contain small particles known as electrons, neutrons, and protons. The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons which are at the center of the atom. Electrons on the other hand surrounds the nucleus. Electron has negative charge while proton has a positive charge. The number of neutrons is equivalent to the number of protons . In addition, the number of protons is equal to mass number minus the number of electrons.

For the compound XCl_{2}, it can be broken down into X^{2+} and 2Cl^{-}. Its ion has a mass of 34 and 18 electrons which means it has already lost 2 electrons.

Therefore:

For the given element, the number of electrons is 18+2 = 20 electrons.

The number of protons = 34 - 20 = 14.

And the number of neutrons is 14.

Only option B has the correct answer.

What is the degree of oxidation of a simple substance​​
marissa [1.9K]

Answer: The oxidation state of a free element (uncombined element) is zero. For a simple (monoatomic) ion, the oxidation state is equal to the net charge on the ion. For example, Cl– has an oxidation state of -1. When present in most compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation state of +1 and oxygen an oxidation state of −2.

hope this helps........ Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! :D Explanation:
