Here is what radioactive decay is:
<span>Radioactive decay is the spontaneous breakdown
of an atomic nucleus resulting in the release of energy and matter from
the nucleus. Remember that a radioisotope has unstable nuclei that does
not have enough binding energy to hold the nucleus together.</span>
Answer:
number of ions = 12.04 x 10^²³
Explanation:
n = number of ions/Avogadro's constant
2 = number of ions/6.02 x 10^²³
number of ions= 2 x 6.02 x 10^²³
number of ions = 12.04 x 10^²³
Answer:
3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²
Explanation:
We can <u>define ppm as mg of Pb²⁺ per liter of water</u>.
We<u> calculate the mass of lead ion in 100 mL of water</u>:
- 100.0 mL ⇒ 100.0 / 1000 = 0.100 L
- 0.100 L * 0.0080 ppm = 8x10⁻⁴ mg Pb⁺²
Now we <u>convert mass of lead to moles</u>, using its molar mass:
- 8x10⁻⁴ mg ⇒ 8x10⁻⁴ / 1000 = 8x10⁻⁷ g
- 8x10⁻⁷ g Pb²⁺ ÷ 207.2 g/mol = 3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²
The percent of aluminium of a aluminium sulfate, AI2(SO4)3 is 15.8%.
