Answer:

37S

Explanation:

Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of particles and / or electromagnetic radiation by unstable atomic nuclei leading to their disintegration.

We have two main types of radioactivity: radioactive decay and artificial transmutation.

In radioactive decay ( natural radioactivity ), a naturally occurring radioactive element like Uranium-238 disintegrates or decays into more stable isotopes with the emission of particles and/or radiation.

23892U = 23490Th + 42He

Artificial transmutation is the collision of two particles where one particle captures the other used to bombard it. There is subsequent production of isotopes similar or different from the bombarded particle. Neutrons, alpha particles ( helium nucleus ), electrons, protons can be used to bombard elements.

147N + 42He = 178O + 11P

For the above question which is artificial transmutation, the reaction equation is

4018Ar + 10n = 3716S + 42He

So, the neutron capture by Argon-40 will produce a radioisotope Sulphur-37 with the emission of an alpha particle.

Look at sample problem 19.10 in the 8th ed Silberberg book. Write the Ksp expression. Find the concentrations of the ions you ne
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given:

CaF_2 \to Ca^{2+} + 2F^-

Ksp = 3.2 \times 10^{-11}

no of moles of Ca^{2+} = 0.01 L × 0.0010 mol/L

no of moles of Ca^{2+} = 1 \times 10^{-5} \ mol

no of moles of F^- = 0.01 L × 0.00010 mol/L

no of moles of F^- = 1 \times 10^{-6}\ mol

Total volume = 0.02 L

[Ca^{2+}}] = \dfrac{1\times10^{-5} \ mol}{0.02 \ L} \\ \\  \\  \[[Ca^{2+}}] = 0.0005 \ mol/L

[F^{-}] = \dfrac{(1\times 10^{-6} \ mol)}{0.02 \ L}

[F^{-}] = 5 \times 10^{-5}  \ mol/L

Q = [Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2 \\ \\ Q = 0.0005 \times (5\times 10^{-5})^2 \\ \\ Q = 1.25 \times 10^{-12}

Since Q<ksp, then there will no be any precipitation of CaF2

If 25.0 g NO are produced, how many grams of nitrogen gas are used?
mr Goodwill [35]

Using the stoichiometry of the reaction and the information provided in the question, the mass of N2 used is 11.62 g.

<h3>Chemical reaction</h3>

The term chemical reaction refers to the combiantion of two or substances to yiled one or more products. The reaction equation in this case is N2 + O2 --->2NO.

Now;

Number of moles of NO = 25g/30 g/mol = 0.83 moles

1 mole of N2 yields 2 moles of NO

x moles of N2 yileds 0.83 moles of NO

x = 0.415 moles

Mass of N2 = 0.415 moles * 28 g/mol = 11.62 g
