What is the differnce between the atomic number and the mass number of an element?
MrRissso [65]
Atomic number refers to the number of protons within the nuclei of an element's atoms (and therefore the number of electrons) while mass number refers to the number of protons and neutrons within the nucleus.

E. The element 231/90Th decays to 231/91 Pa. Use the laws of conservation of charge and nucleon number to determine the decay pa
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A negatron emission

Explanation:

We know that radioactivity orginates from instability of the nucleus. When the nucleus is unstable, radioactive emissions are produced in the form of any of these rays:

> Alpha particle emisson

>Beta particles

> Gamma rays

These emissions create a balance for a radioactive decay.

In balancing nuclear reactions we make sure that the charges on both sides must be conserved and that the mass number and atomic numbers conserved too. This means that the sum of mass number and atomic numbers on both side of the reaction must be equal.

The nucleons are the protons and neutrons, they add up to give the mass number. The atomic number is the proton number.

For the given radioactive reaction:

²³¹₉₀Th → ²³¹₉₁Pa + ?

From this equation, we see that the mass number is conserved but the atomic number is not.

The mass number is the superscript whereas the atomic number is the subscript.

Let's say the decay produces an emission of a particle denoted by X

²³¹₉₀Th → ²³¹₉₁Pa + ᵃₙX

What would the nature of X be?

For the charges and masses to be conserved, X must have mass number of 0 and an atomic number of -1.

Checking:

Mass number:

231 = 231 + a ( a is the mass number)

a = 231 - 231 = 0

Atomic number:

90 = 91 + n

n = 90- 91 = - 1

With X having a mass number of 0 and an atomic number of -1, we have a beta particle emission. Specifically, a negatron has been emitted.

A negatron is denoted as ⁰₋₁β which perfectly makes the equation conserved and suits the description of X.

The complete equation is thus written as:

²³¹₉₀Th → ²³¹₉₁Pa + ⁰₋₁β + energy

When it comes to equilibrium reactions, it useful to do ICE analysis. ICE stands for Initial-Change-Equilibrium. You subtract the initial and change to determine the equilibrium amounts which is the basis for Kc. Kc is the equilibrium constant of concentration which is just the ratio of products to reactant. 

Let's do the ICE analysis

      2 NH₃ ⇄ N₂ + 3 H₂
I         0        1.3    1.65
C     +2x       -x      -3x
-------------------------------------
E       0.1        ?        ?

The variable x is the amount of moles of the substances that reacted. You apply the stoichiometric coefficients by multiplying it by x. Now, we can solve x by:

Equilibrium NH₃ = 0.1 = 0 + 2x
x = 0.05 mol
Therefore,
Equilibrium H₂ = 1.65 - 3(0.05) = 1.5 mol
Equilibrium N₂ = 1..3 - 0.05 = 1.25 mol

For the second part, I am confused with the given reaction because the stoichiometric coefficients do not balance which violates the law of conservation of mass. But you should remember that the Kc values might differ because of the stoichiometric coefficient. For a reaction: aA + bB ⇄ cC, the Kc for this is

K_{C} = \frac{[ C^{c} ]}{[ A^{a} ][ B^{b} ]}

Hence, Kc could vary depending on the stoichiometric coefficients of the reaction.

valkas [14]

0.25 moles of CO2 is present in 11 grams of CO2.

Explanation:

A mole represents the number of chemical entities in an element or molecule.

Number of moles of an element or molecule is determined by the formula:

The Number of moles (n) = weight of the atom given  ÷ atomic or molecular weight of the one mole of the element or molecule.

Themolar mass of one mole of carbon dioxide is:

12+ ( 16×2)

= 44 gram/mole

The given weight is 44 grams of carbon dioxide.

Putting the values in the equation,

n= 11 gms÷44 gms/ mole

n   = 0.25 mole
