When alpha decay takes place, two protons and two neutrons are forcefully ejected from the nucleus in a way that looks very similar to a Helium nucleus. This type of decay causes the atomic mass of the parent particle to drop by four (four particles lost), but the atomic number drops by only two (two protons lost). Therefore, your answer is C.

How many moles of H3PO4 would produce 12 moles of water in this reaction? ЗKOH + H3PO4 K3PO4 + 3H20
Olenka [21]

Answer:

4 moles of H₃PO₄

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

     3KOH   + H₃PO₄   →   K₃PO₄   +  3H₂O

Number of moles of water  =  12moles

Unknown:

Number of moles of H₃PO₄ = ?

Solution:

 From the balanced reaction expression we see that;

          3 moles of water is produced from 1 mole of H₃PO₄

So;    12 moles of water would be produced from \frac{12}{3} = 4 moles of H₃PO₄

2) Convert 2.65*10^ ^ 25 atoms of Chlorine to moles of CI
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

22 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Cl = 2.65×10²⁵ atom

Number of moles of Cl = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.  The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

2.65×10²⁵ atom × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.44×10² mol

22 mol

From the given elements Na, P , Ca ,Br which one has highest first ionization energy , ,smallest atomic size , most metallic cha
madam [21]

Answer:

highest first ionization energy - Br

smallest atomic size - Br

most metallic character - Na

Explanation:

Ionization energy of Br is higher than P because higher zeff value

Sodium is more metallic than calcium because it is able to loose electron more readily as compared to calcium because of higher electro positivity.

Atomic radius of Br is the smallest as its atomic radius is 114, P (115), Ca (197), Na (186)
