Answer:

ΔE = 8.77 × 10¹¹ J

Explanation:

given,

²¹⁴₈₄Po -----> ²¹⁰₈₂Pb + 42 He

Atomic masses: Pb-210 = 209.98284 amu

Po-214 = 213.99519 amu

He-4 = 4.00260 amu

1 kg = 6.022 × 10²⁶ amu;

NA = 6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

c = 2.99792458 × 10⁸ m/s

energy of molecule using equation

ΔE = Δm c²

Δm is mass difference and c is speed of light

Δm = 209.98284 + 4.00260 - 213.99519

Δm = - 0.00975 amu

1 amu = 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

- 0.00975 amu = - 0.00975 x 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

                         = -0.016185 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

total mass = 6.022 × 10²³ x -0.016185 x 10⁻²⁷

                 = -0.097467 x 10⁻⁴ Kg

ΔE = -(0.097467 x 10⁻⁴) (3 x 10^8)²

ΔE = - 8.77 × 10¹¹

ΔE = 8.77 × 10¹¹ J

If a 50microAmps current is flowing then how many electrons pass a point each minute to 2 sig figs? Please add an explanation as
defon
The equation you need to use is Q=IT where Q is the charge in C, I is the current in Amps and T is the time in seconds.

So we have T = 60s
I = 50 \times 10^-^6A
let's work out Q
Q=IT = (50\times 10^{-6}) \times 60 = 3 \times 10^-^3C
this is the total charge passing a point in a minute so divide by the charge of one electron (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) to find the number of electrons passing the point in a minute which equals 1.875 \times 10^{16}

Why must the difference between the water level in the eudiometer tube and the water level in the beaker be measured
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The difference between the water level in the eudiometer tube and the water level in the beaker must be measured because we have to put into consideration, the pressure of the gases in the eudiometer tube. This said pressure of gas in the eudiometer must equal the atmospheric pressure. If or by chance, the water levels happens not to be at the same height, then this is not the case. And then, as a result, in order to account for the difference between both, while also being able to get accurate results, you have to find the difference or subtract the water levels and then go ahead in converting them to mmHg.

Find the weight of an astronaut whose mass is 75 kg on the moon
gladu [14]
The formula for weight is always weight=mass X gravitational field strength.
We already know the mass is 75kg.
The gravitational field strength on the moon is 1.6N. To find out the weight, we can substitute these values in to the formula.
Weight=75 X 1.6
Weight= 120N
Weight is measured on Neutons as it is a force.
