The isotope is phosphorus-32.  

It possesses 15 protons that make it phosphorus, 15 electrons, thus, the charges get balanced, and it is electrically neutral. It has 17 neutrons, so in combination, it has 32 protons/neutrons in the nucleus. Therefore, the name is phosphorus-32.  

The phosphorus-32 is a beta-emitter with a half-life of 14.3 days that is, used regularly in life-science projects, mainly to generate radiolabeled RNA and DNA probes, like for application in Southern Blots and Northern Blots.

Why couldn't you substitute 3m H2SO4 for concentrated HNO3 when oxidizing copper?
schepotkina [342]

This question seems to be an essay question from experiment. Different solution of oxidizing agent will have different strength.  Sulfuric acid or H2SO4 is weaker oxidizing agent when compared to nitric acid (HNO3). In this case, if you subtitute the H2SO4 you wouldn't be able to get the same result for the experiment.

Moderate alcohol consumption is no more than ________ alcoholic drink(s) daily for adult women and up to ________ drink(s) daily
liberstina [14]

Moderate alcohol consumption is no more than One alcoholic drink(s) daily for adult women and up to Two drink(s) daily for adult men.

What is an alcohol?

Alcohol is an organic compound containing a hydroxyl group and a carbon atom; Alcohol can be an intoxicant found in alcoholic beverages.

An alcoholic drink (also called an alcoholic beverage, adult beverage, or simply a drink) is a drink that contains ethanol, a type of alcohol that acts as a drug and is produced by fermentation of grains, fruits, or other sources of sugar.

The consumption of alcoholic drinks, often referred to as "drinking", plays an important social role in many cultures. Most countries have laws regulating the production, sale, and consumption of alcoholic beverages.

So, according to the scientific studies, the alcoholic consumption for women in a day is not more then one and for men is not for two drink(s)

1 Drink includes:

For beer: 355 ML

For Wine: 148 ML

Explanation:

Given -

  • An organic compound gives H₂ gas with Na
  • On treatment with alkaline iodine it gives yellow ppt.
  • On oxidation with CrO₃/H⁺ forms an aldehyde (C₂H₄O)

To Find -

  • Name the compound and write the reaction involved

Now,

Let A be the organic compound.

Then,

  1. A + Na → + H₂↑
  2. A + I₂ → CHI₃ (yellow ppt.)
  3. A + CrO₃ + H⁺ → C₂H₄O

Now,

Here we see that compound A reacts with chromic oxide (CrO₃) in the presence of acidic medium gives aldehyde.

  • Functional group of aldehyde = —CHO

And It forms only 2 Carbon aldehyde it means, It is Ethanal (CH₃CHO).

Compound A reacts with chromic oxide (CrO₃) in the presence of acidic medium gives ethanal.

It means,

We know that 1° alcohol on oxidation gives aldehyde.

Here it gives 2 Carbon aldehyde.

It means,

Here 2 Carbon and 1° alcohol is used.

Now,

Its cleared that Compound A is Ethanol.

Reaction Involved -

  1. CH₃CH₂OH + Na → CH₃CH₂O⁻Na⁺ + H₂↑
  2. CH₃CH₂OH + I₂ + OH⁻ → CHI₃↓ + HCOO⁻ + HI + H₂O
  3. CH₃CH₂OH + CrO₃ + H⁺ → CH₃CHO
