<u>Answer:</u> The isotopic representation of tritium atom is _1^3\textrm{H}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are defined as the chemical species which have same atomic number but differ in mass number.

Hydrogen has 3 isotopes that occur naturally. They are: H-1 (protium), H-2 (deuterium) and H-3 (tritium)

The isotopic representation of an atom is: _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

We know that:

Mass number of H-3 isotope = 3

Atomic number of H-3 isotope = 1

Hence, the isotopic representation of tritium atom is _1^3\textrm{H}

Answer:

₁H³

Explanation:

Tritium is the isotope of hydrogen.

It consist of one proton two neutron and one electron.

It is rare isotope of hydrogen.

It is radioactive.

Its mass is  3.0160492 u.

In atmosphere it is also present in trace amount.

Its decay product is He³.

₁H³  →  ³He₂⁺¹ +  e⁻

Determine the pH of a 0.048 M hypochlorous acid (HClO) solution. Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid (Ka = 4.0 ✕ 10−8 M).
storchak [24]

pH of 0.048 M HClO is 4.35.

<u>Explanation:</u>

HClO is a weak acid and it is dissociated as,

HClO ⇄ H⁺ + ClO⁻

We can write the equilibrium expression as,

Ka = $\frac{[H^{+}] [ClO^{-}]  }{[HClO]}

Ka = 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M

4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M = $\frac{x \times x }{0.048}

Now we can find x by rewriting the equation as,

x² =  4.0 × 10⁻⁸ × 0.048

   = 1.92 × 10⁻⁹

Taking sqrt on both sides, we will get,

x = [H⁺] = 4.38 × 10⁻⁵

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

     = - log₁₀[ 4.38 × 10⁻⁵]

   = 4.35

If the air temperature is the same as the temperature of your skin (about 30◦C), your body cannot get rid of heat by transferrin
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

energy produced per second = 500 J

Heat produced = 500 x .8 = 400 J per second.

If m be the mass of water evaporated per unit hour

m x latent heat = 400 x 60 x 60

= m x 2.42 x 10⁶ = 1.44 x 10⁶

m = .595 kg per hour

b )

volume of water = 595 mL

bottles = 595 / 750

.8 or 4/5 of bottle. per hour.
