slader Consider the following reactions: A. uranium-238 emits an alpha particle; B. plutonium-239 emits an alpha parti- cle; C.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

For A: The equation is $_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{90}^{234}\textrm{Th}+_2^4\alpha$

For B: The equation is $_{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_2^4\alpha$

For C: The equation is $_{90}^{239}\textrm{Th}\rightarrow _{91}^{235}\textrm{Pa}+_{-1}^0\beta$

Explanation:

Alpha decay process is the process in which nucleus of an atom disintegrates into two particles. The first one which is the alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. This is also known as helium nucleus. The second particle is the daughter nuclei which is the original nucleus minus the alpha particle released.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha$

Beta decay process is defined as the process the neutrons get converted into an electron and a proton. The released electron is known as the beta particle. In this process, the atomic number of the daughter nuclei gets increased by a factor of 1 but the mass number remains the same.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

For A: Uranium-238 emits an alpha particle

The nuclear equation for this process follows:

$_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{90}^{234}\textrm{Th}+_2^4\alpha$

For B: Plutonium-239 emits an alpha particle

The nuclear equation for this process follows:

$_{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_2^4\alpha$

For C: Thorium-239 emits a beta particle

The nuclear equation for this process follows:

$_{90}^{239}\textrm{Th}\rightarrow _{91}^{235}\textrm{Pa}+_{-1}^0\beta$

A cylinder was charged with 1.25 atm of oxygen gas, 6.73 atm of argon, and 0.895 atm of xenon. What is the mole fraction of each

katrin2010 [14]

Considering the Dalton's partial pressure, the mole fraction of each gas is:

$x_{oxygen}$ = 0.14
$x_{argon}$ = 0.76
$x_{xenon}$ = 0.10

<h3>Dalton's partial pressure</h3>

The pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is known as its partial pressure.

So, Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone:

$P_{T} =P_{1} +P_{2} +...+P_{n}$

where n is the amount of gases in the gas mixture.

This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.

Dalton's partial pressure law can also be expressed in terms of the mole fraction of the gas in the mixture. The mole fraction is a dimensionless quantity that expresses the ratio of the number of moles of a component to the number of moles of all the components present.

So in a mixture of two or more gases, the partial pressure of gas A can be expressed as:

$P_{A} =x_{A} P_{T}$

In summary, the total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressures of each gas.

Mole fraction of each gas

In this case, you know that:

$P_{oxygen }$ = 1.25 atm
$P_{argon}$ = 6.73 atm
$P_{xenon}$ = 0.895 atm
$P_{T} =P_{oxygen} +P_{argon}+P_{xenon}$ = 1.25 atm + 6.73 atm + 0.895 atm= 8.875 atm
