In a nuclear reaction, the parent element is always radioactive.

7 0

Hydrogen to be more precise protium which is an isotope of hydrogen containing one proton and one electron. It is considered to be very stable which explains it's abundance everywhere. However under extreme conditions like in the sun, it undergoes nuclear fusion to form helium. So in conclusion, under normal circumstances Protium is considered to be very stable however under extreme circumstances it is radioactive. Does that answer your question?

What is the best name for the molecule below? (2 points)

Levart [38]

Given:

A compound with:

Number of carbon atoms = 9
Number of double bonds = 1
A double bond between 5th and 6th carbon
A propyl group (CH2CH2CH3) branching off the 3rd carbon from the left

Try to illustrate the given and observe the formation of the atoms. Now, follow the correct IUPAC naming system. The name of the compound is

4-propyl-1-hexene

Count from the right to the left, the double bond is between the 1st and 2nd carbon, thus, 1-hexene. The propyl branches out the 4th carbon from the right, thus 4-propyl.

Why is the earths Axis titled

Pachacha [2.7K]

Since obliquity is the angle between the axis of rotation and the direction perpendicular to the orbital plane, it changes as the orbital plane changes due to the influence of other planets. But the axis of rotation can also move (axial precession), due to torque exerted by the sun on a planet's equatorial bulge.

Is it possible for three or more elements to form a solid solution? Explain your answer.

elixir [45]

Yes it is possible because, olymorphismis when two or more crystal structures are possible for a material of given composition. Isomerismis when two or more polymer molecules or repeat units have the same composition, but different atomic arrangements.

Answer:

The equilibrium constant is $K =0.02867$

The equilibrium pressure for oxygen gas is $P_{O_2} = 0.09367\ atm$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The equation of the chemical reaction is

$M_2 O_3 _{(s)} ----> 2M_{(s)} + \frac{3}{2} O_2_{(g)}$

The Gibbs free energy for $M_3 O_4_{(s)}$ is $\Delta G^o_{1} = -8.80 \ kJ/mol$

The Gibbs free energy for $M{(s)}$ is $\Delta G^o_{2} = 0 \ kJ/mol$

The Gibbs free energy for $O_2{(s)}$ is $\Delta G^o_{3} = 0 \ kJ/mol$

The Gibbs free energy of the reaction is mathematically represented as

$\Delta G^o_{re} = \sum \Delta G^o _p - \sum G^o _r$

$\Delta G^o_{re} = \sum \Delta G^o _1 - \sum( G^o _2 +G^o _3)$

Substituting values

From the balanced equation

$\Delta G^o_{re} =[ (2 * 0) + (\frac{3}{2} * 0 )] - [1 * - 8.80]$

$\Delta G^o_{re} = 8.80 kJ/mol =8800J/mol$

The Gibbs free energy of the reaction can also be represented mathematically as

$\Delta G^o_{re} = -RTln K$

Where R is the gas constant with a value of $R = 8.314 J/mol \cdot K$

T is the temperature with a given value of $T = 298 K$

K is the equilibrium constant

Now equilibrium constant for a reaction that contain gas is usually expressed in term of the partial pressure of the reactant and products that a gaseous in state

The equilibrium constant for this chemical reaction is mathematically represented as

$K_p =[ P_{O_2}]^{\frac{3}{2} }$
