Answer:

Explanation:

The metal with the highest specific heat capacity will undergo the most temperature change.

Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat supplied to a unit mass of a substance to cause a temperature change of 1°C.

A very good conductor of heat will have low specific heat capacity. This implies that less heat will be required to cause a monumental change in its temperature.

                  C  = \frac{H}{m (t2  - t1)}

where C  is specific heat

            H is the amount of heat supplied

            m is the mass

             t is the temperature

We see that since both H and m for the two metals are the same, specific heat is inversely proportional to temperature change.

The lower the heat capacity, the higher the temperature change.

Consider a galvanic cell consisting of the following two redox couplesAlB+ 3e Al , Mga + 2e Mg, (ag. E® = 1.676 V ) E° = 2.356 V
malfutka [58]

Answer:

0.68 V

Explanation:

For anode;

3Mg(s) ---->3Mg^2+(aq) + 6e

For cathode;

2Al^3+(aq) + 6e -----> 2Al(s)

Overall balanced reaction equation;

3Mg(s) + 2Al^3+(aq) ----> 3Mg^2+(aq) + 2Al(s)

Since

E°anode = -2.356 V

E°cathode = -1.676 V

E°cell=-1.676 -(-2.356)

E°cell= 0.68 V

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

What is the volume of a 5.30g piece of aluminum? The density for aluminum is 2.70mL
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

1.96mL

Explanation:

Density = mass/volume, and rearranged to solve for volume, volume = mass/density.

So:

volume = 5.30g/2.70g/mL = 1.96mL (assuming your unit was g/mL for density)

Some radioactive nuclides have very short half-lives, for example, I-31 has a half-life of approximately 8 days. Pu-234, by comp
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Here's what I find.

Explanation:

Iodine-131

Iodine-131 is both a beta emitter and a gamma emitter.

_{53}^{131}\text{I}\longrightarrow \, _{54}^{131}\text{Xe} +\, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} +\, _{0}^{0}\gamma

About 90 % of the energy is β-radiation and 10 % is γ-radiation. Both forms are highly energetic.

The main danger is from ingestion. The iodine concentrates in thyroid gland, where the β-radiation destroys cells up to 2 mm from the tissues that absorbed it.

Both the β- and γ-radiation cause cell mutations that can later become cancerous. Small doses, such as those absorbed from the nuclear disasters in the Ukraine and Japan, can cause cancers years after the original iodine has disappeared.

Plutonium-239

Plutonium-239 is an alpha emitter.

_{94}^{239}\text{U} \longrightarrow \, _{92}^{235}\text{Xe} + \, _{2}^{4}\text{He}

Alpha particles cannot penetrate the skin, so external exposure isn't much of a health risk.

However, they are extremely dangerous when they are inhaled and get inside cells. They travel first to the blood or lymph system and later to the bone marrow and liver, where they cause up to 1000 times more chromosomal damage than beta or gamma rays.

It takes about 20 years for plutonium to be eliminated from the liver around 50 years for from the skeleton, so it has a long time to cause damage.
