When an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle it decay into an atom with atomic number 2 less and mass number 4 less. Thus Thorium 230 decay as follows.
230 90Th -------> 226 88Th + 4 2 He
thorium is in the atomic number 90 thus it during alpha decay it reduces to atomic number 88 while its 230 mass number reduces to 226
Answer:
11.3 g
Explanation:
7.895 + 3.4 = 11.295
When rounded to correct number of significant figures --> 11.3
There are 3 significant figures in 11.3
Answer:
Approximately 
.
Explanation:
Note that both figures in the question come with four significant figures. Therefore, the answer should also be rounded to four significant figures. Intermediate results should have more significant figures than that.
<h3>Formula mass of strontium hydroxide</h3>
Look up the relative atomic mass of 
, 
, and 
on a modern periodic table. Keep at least four significant figures in each of these atomic mass data.
Calculate the formula mass of 
:
.
<h3>Number of moles of strontium hydroxide in the solution</h3>
means that each mole of formula units have a mass of 
.
The question states that there are 
of in this solution.
How many moles of formula units would that be?
.
<h3>Molarity of this strontium hydroxide solution</h3>
There are 
of formula units in this 
solution. Convert the unit of volume to liter:
.
The molarity of a solution measures its molar concentration. For this solution:
.
(Rounded to four significant figures.)
Answer:
A physical property is any property that is measurable, whose value describes a state of a physical system.
Explanation:
-color
-density
-volume
Specificity. It’s really loose to say that something is fast, since speed can be scalarly linked and relative. I could say that both a car on the highway is fast, but so is the speed of light. The actual speed of something helps to do away with the arbitrary nature of using “fast” and “slow”; however, we’re still at step one of the person who is receiving the information is unfamiliar with the scale that the actual speed is defined in.
