Answer:
97 000 g Na
Explanation:
The absortion (or liberation) of energy in form of heat is expressed by:
q=m*Cp*ΔT
The information we have:
q=1.30MJ= 1.30*10^6 J
ΔT = 10.0°C = 10.0 K (ΔT is the same in °C than in K)
Cp=30.8 J/(K mol Na)
If you notice, the Cp in the question is in relation with mol of Na. Before using the q equation, we can find the Cp in relation to the grams of Na.
To do so, we use the molar mass of Na= 22.99g/mol
Now, we are able to solve for m:
=97 000 g Na
Answer: incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.
Explanation:
A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.
An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here potassium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as cation and nitrate
is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
.
is formed by sharing of electrons between two non metals nitrogen and oxygen.
Thus incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.
It will take 5.2 years to decay.
The half life of cobalt-60 is 5.2 years. The half life is the time taken for the mass of the substance to decrease by a half.
here, the amount of remaining substance is 50%,
so,
n. log (0.5) = log (0.5)
n = 1
So it would take 1 half lives to decay this much, which is 1 x 5.2 which is 5.2 years.
what do you mean by radioactive decay ?
The process through which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy via radiation is known as radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration. A material that has unstable nuclei is considered as radioactive.
