Answer:

Option D. fluorine-18

Explanation:

The attached photo gives the explanation.

In the attached photo, A zX represent the atom that will undergo beta decay to produce oxygen–18.

After the calculation, A zX was found to be fluorine–18.

811.68 J of energy are used on a 95g chunk of unknown metal. Calculate the resulting temperature change if the specific heat of

Ivan

Answer:

16 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Provided heat (Q): 811.68 J

Mass of the metal (m): 95 g

Specific heat capacity of the metal (c): 0.534 J/g.°C

Step 2: Calculate the temperature change (ΔT) experienced by the metal

We will use the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

ΔT = Q/c × m

ΔT = 811.68 J/(0.534 J/g.°C) × 95 g = 16 °C

When one material is rubbed against another, electrons jump readily from one to the other. why don’t protons do that?

Pachacha [2.7K]

Protons are held inside nucleous with neutrons with large amount of force. So mere rubbing doesn't help in breaking the nucleous of an atom. But electrons are far from the nucleous and the force of attraction is smaller. So electrons can jump readily while protons can't

Write the balanced chemical equation for the following: The destruction of a marble statuary by acid rain: aqueous nitric acid r

Mashcka [7]

Answer: The coefficient in front of nitric acid is 2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas. Liquids are represented by (l) and gases are represented by (g).

The balanced chemical reaction is :

$CaCO_3(s)+2HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+CO_2(g)+H_2O(l)$
