Alpha decay represents the forceful ejection of two protons and two neutrons from the nucleus of the parent atom. If 214 Po undergoes alpha decay, the equation would be:
214 Po ➡️ 210 Pb + 4 He + energy
Alpha decay is in the form of a helium nucleus, two protons and two neutrons.
Answer:
The gas pressure in both mmHg and torr is 1.00 x10⁻⁴.
Explanation:
The standard atmosphere (1 atm) equals a pressure of 760 mmHg, where mmHg represents the pressure exerted by a column of mercury 1 mm high. <u>The mmHg unit is also called the torr</u>, after the Italian scientist Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the barometer. Thus,
1 torr = 1 mmHg
and
1 atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr
Therefore, we do the following conversion:
1 atm ------------------- 760 mmHg
1.32x10⁻⁷ atm ------- x= 1.00 x10⁻⁴ mmHg (3 significant digits)
Ans: 15.1 grams
Given reaction:
Na2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2NaOH + CaCO3
Mass of Na2CO3 = 20.0 g
Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 105.985 g/mol
# moles of Na2CO3 = 20/105.985 = 0.1887 moles
Based on the reaction stoichiometry: 1 mole of Na2CO3 produces 2 moles of NaOH
# moles of NaOH produced = 0.1887*2 = 0.3774 moles
Molar mass of NaOH = 22.989 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 39.996 g/mol
Mass of NaOH produced = 0.3774*39.996 = 15.09 grams
Answer:
Q = 525 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass, m = 10 grams
The change in temperature, 
The specific heat of the substance is 3.5 J/g °C
We need to find the amount of heat released in the process. It can be given by the formula as follow :

Hence, 525 J of heat is released.
First of all write a balanced equation.
4Na + O2 -> 2Na2O
You are starting with a mass of sodium. You need to use sodium’s molar mass. Take this quantity times mole to mole ratio between sodium and sodium oxide to get moles of sodium oxide produced.
.141 moles of sodium oxide produced
