Which of the following isotopes would most likely be unstable and therefore radioactive?

Chemistry
1 answer:
svlad2 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Mercury-194 is an unstable isotope and hence is radioactive.

Explanation: Mercury-194 is an isotope of mercury, having formula _{80}^{194}\textrm{Hg}

Number of protons in this isotope = 80

Number of neutrons in this isotope = 114

This isotope is radioactive in nature and under decay process by Electron Capture.

Electron capture reactions are the reactions in which a proton in a nucleus absorbs an electron and convert it into neutron. The resulting nucleus will have a decreased atomic number and same atomic mass.

Reaction for electron capture of mercury-194 follows:

_{80}^{194}\textrm{Hg}+_{-1}^0\textrm{e}\rightarrow _{79}^{194}\textrm{Au}

Exactly 5000 mL of air at 223K is warmed and has a new volume of 8.36 liters. What is the new temperature?
34kurt

Answer:

The new temperature is 373 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume air = 5000 mL = 5.0 L

Temperature = 223K

New volume = 8.36 L

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

V1/T1 = V2/T2

⇒V1 = the initial volume = 5.0 L

⇒T1 = the initial temperature = 223 K

⇒V2 = the new volume = 8.36 L

⇒T2 = the new temperature

5.0/223 = 8.36 /T2

T2 = 373 K

The new temperature is 373 K

A 4.24 kg marble slab has the volume of 1564 cm3 What is the density in g/cm3
miskamm [114]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2.71 g/cm³</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

volume of marble = 1564 cm³

1 kg = 1000 g

4.24 kg = 4240 g

mass = 4240 g

The density is

density =  \frac{4240}{1564}   \\  = 2.710997442...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.71 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
