the answer is b so the second option

<span>The answer is the option B. ionic bond. The ionic bond takes place when two ions of opposite charge (one positive and other negative) are bonded due to the electrostatic force between them. When sodium loses its valence electron it forms the positive ion (cation) Na+, and when chloride gains the electron lost by the sodium atom, it forms the negative ion (anion) Cl -, so these two ions form the ionic bond.</span>

What volume of oxygen is needed to react with 20cm3 of ethane?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The reaction states that 2 moles of ethane react with 7 moles of oxygen. At standard temperature and pressure conditions (STP), each mole of gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. Therefore, 2 moles of ethane occupy liters, and 7 moles of oxygen occupy liters. In other words: 6 liters.

Neptunium-237 undergoes a series of α-particle and β-particle productions to end up as thallium-205. How many α particles and β
Fantom [35]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

8 alpha particles

4 beta particles

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Neptunium-237
  • Thallium-205
  • Neptunium-237 undergoes beta and alpha decay to form Thallium-205.

We are required to determine the number of beta and alpha particles produced to complete the decay series.

  • We need to know that when a radioisotope emits an alpha particle the mass number reduces by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
  • When a beta particle is emitted the mass number of the radioisotope increases by 1 while the atomic number remains the same.

In this case;

Neptunium-237 has an atomic number 93, while,

Thallium-205 has an atomic number 81.

Therefore;

²³⁷₉₃Np → x⁴₂He + y⁰₋₁e + ²⁰⁵₈₁Ti

We can get x and y

237 = 4x + y(0) + 205

237-205 = 4x

4x = 32

 x = 8

On the other hand;

93 = 2x + (-y) + 81

but x = 8

93 = 16 -y + 81

y = 4

Therefore, the complete decay equation is;

²³⁷₉₃Np → 8⁴₂He + 4⁰₋₁e + ²⁰⁵₈₁Ti

Thus, Neptunium-237 emits 8 alpha particles and 4 beta particles to become Thallium-205.
