Chemistry

3 0

Explanation:Naturally occurring zinc (30Zn) is composed of the 5 stable isotopes 64Zn, 66Zn, 67Zn, 68Zn, and 70Zn with 64Zn being the most abundant (48.6% natural abundance). Twenty-five radioisotopes have been characterised with the most abundant and stable being 65Zn with a half-life of 244.26 days, and 72Zn with a half-life of 46.5 hours. All of the remaining radioactive isotopes have half-lives that are less than 14 hours and the majority of these have half-lives that are less than 1 second. This element also has 10 meta states.

Zinc has been proposed as a "salting" material for nuclear weapons. A jacket of isotopically enriched 64Zn, irradiated by the intense high-energy neutron flux from an exploding thermonuclear weapon, would transmute into the radioactive isotope 65Zn with a half-life of 244 days and produce approximately 1.115 MeV[2] of gamma radiation, significantly increasing the radioactivity of the weapon's fallout for several years. Such a weapon is not known to have ever been built, tested, or used.[3]

How do the bonds within AND between a water molecule affect the properties of water?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Water is a polar molecule, meaning the covalent bonds in it share electrons unequally. They spend more time around the oxygen, making it positive and the hydrogens negative. This helps water stick to surfaces, a property called adhesion. The hydrogens of one molecule are also attracted to the oxygens of another. This is called cohesion, and it helps water form droplets

Write the chemical reactions for a weak acid and a strong acid.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Weak acid and base solutions contain multiple charged and uncharged species in dynamic equilibrium. Strong acids and strong bases refer to species that completely dissociate to form ions in solution.

What will be the volume of a gas sample at 358 K if its volume at 255 K is 7.4 L?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

10.4 L

Explanation:

V1/T1=V2/T2

V2= (V1*T2)/T1

V2= (7.4L * 358K)/255K

V2=10.4 L
