Terbium-147 undergoes positron emission to become a stable atom. What is that stable atom?

Chemistry

We have to get the stable atom formed after positron emission from Terbium-147.

The stable atom is (D) ₆₄Gd¹⁴⁷.

Positron is radioactive decay. Positron is a type of beta particle β⁺.

Positron emission decreases proton number relative to neutron number, positron decay results in nuclear transmutation, changing an atom of one chemical element with an atomic number that is less by one.

Terbium on positron emission produces Gadolinium with one atomic number less than Terbium. So, the positron emission reaction is as shown below:

Tb¹⁴⁷→ ₆₄Gd¹⁴⁷ + ₁e⁰

Which compound has a molecular ion at m/z = 58, an infra red absorption at 1650cm^-1?
rewona [7]

CH_{3}COCH_{3} (acetone) has a molecular ion at m/z = 58, an infra red absorption at 1650cm^-1

Acetone is a synthetic substance that is also naturally present in the environment. It is a tasteless, colourless liquid with a distinct odour. It is combustible, readily evaporates, and dissolves in water. It is also known as beta-ketopropane, 2-propanone, and dimethyl ketone. Plastic, fibres, medications, and other compounds are all made from acetone.

Other substances can also be dissolved with it. It is a byproduct of the breakdown of human fat and is found naturally in plants, trees, volcanic gases, forest fires, and other organisms. It can be found in landfills, tobacco smoke, and automobile exhaust. Acetone is released into the environment more through industrial processes than through natural ones.

Organic reactions proceed at a very _______ rate
Savatey [412]
<span>ANSWER:

Organic reactions proceed at a very SLOWER rate.

Reasoning:

</span><span>Organic reactions are chemical reactions involving organic compounds. They are less soluble</span> in water than inorganic compounds. Therefore, organic compounds react at a slower rate and produce a much more complex set of products than inorganic compounds.

Why is it important to read a volume measurement using a graduated cylinder at eye level on the lab bench top verse just holding
Afina-wow [57]
<span>Measuring with a graduated cylinder is complicated somewhat by a meniscus.  A meniscus is the curvature of the surface of the water.  Water "sticks" to the walls of the graduated cylinder, but only on the sides and not the middle.
