Amiraneli [1.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Alpha particle

Explanation:

The helium symbol is also used to represent he alpha particles.

For example:

The americium with atomic wight  224 undergo alpha decay and produce

₉₃Np²³⁷ . The alpha particle emitted is also called helium nuclei. During this decay some gamma radiations also produce as a byproduct.

₉₅Am²²⁴   →    ₉₃Np²³⁷ + ₂He⁴

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

Consider the following scenario
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Going by the clues that it is between Silver Flouride (AgF) and Sodium Fluoride (NaF) and since it is an aqueous solution , the 1 liter bottle is likely to be Sodium Chloride( NaCl). Going by the reaction,

AgF + NaCl= AgCl + NaF

Here, the color of AgCl is white, hence the solution cannot be AgCl.

Determination of NaCl

Determination of NaCl can be done by Mohr's Method or Volhard's method. But results in Volhard's method are more accurate . Its uses the method of back titration with Potassium Thiocynate which forms a AgCl precipitate . Prior to titration,excess AgNO3 ( The problem also has a clue that excess reagents are present in the lab ) is added to the NaCl solution so that all the Cl- ions react with Ag+. Fe3+ is then added as an indicator and the solution is titrated with KSCN to form a silver thiocyannite precipitate (AgSCN). Once all the silver has reacted, a slight excess of SCN- reacts with Fe3+ to form Fe(SCN)3 dark red complex. The concentration of Cl- is determined by subtracting the titer findings of Ag+ ions that reacted to form AgSCN from the Ag NO3 moles added to the solution. This is used because pH of the solution is acidic. If the pH of solution is basic, Mohr's method is used.

Reactions

Ag+ (aq)+ Cl-(aq) = AgCl(aq)

Ag+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = AgSCN(aq)

Fe3+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = [FeSCN]2- (aq)

Predict what will be observed in each experiment below. experiment predicted observation.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

1.  a) The bubbles will shrink, some may vanish.

2. a) Can A will make a louder and stronger fizz than can B.

Explanation:

In the first question, it is given that the bottle is not opened and therefore, squeezing the bottle filled with a carbonated drink will increase the pressure on the carbonated liquid which forces the bubbles to dissolve or displace or vanish as it moves to empty space.

Thus, the correct answer would be - The bubbles will shrink, some may vanish

In the second question, there are two different conditions for two different unopened cans of carbonated water that are different temperatures one at the garage with higher temperature and one in the fridge at low temperature. As it is known that higher the temperature less will be solubility of gas in liquid so gas in can A will be less soluble which means it has more gas and it will make louder and stronger fizz than B which was stored at low temperature.

thus, the correct answer would be - Can A will make a louder and stronger fizz than can B.
