Every 4 days, the amount of radon you started with is reduced by half.

Start with 4 grams of radon on day 1

After 4 days, you have (1/2)* 4 grams of radon = 2 grams

Start with 2 grams of radon on day 5

After four more days (end of day 8) you have:

(1/2)*2 grams = ?

The red arrow is pointed at different locations of an atom of nitrogen. Where is it pointing to the greatest concentration of at
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

option A = In first diagram red arrow pointed towards the greatest concentration of atomic mass.

Explanation:

Every atom consist of nucleus or a positive center. The protons and neutrons are present with in the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus. All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. The number of protons or number of electrons are the atomic number of an atom while the number of protons and number of neutrons are the mass number of an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of protons and electrons. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

Nitrogen consist of seven protons and seven neutrons present with in nucleus and seven electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Neutron and proton:

The neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P+  

Symbol of neutron= n0  

Mass of proton=1.672623×10-27 Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10-27 Kg

Identify the spectator ions in this reaction. Check all that apply. 2H+ + CrO4– + Ba2+ + 2OH– Ba2+ + CrO4– + 2H2O H+ CrO4– Ba2+
bagirrra123 [75]
Answer: CrO₄⁻ and  Ba²⁺


Explanation:


1) Chemical equation given:


2H⁺ + CrO₄⁻ + Ba²⁺ + 2OH⁻ → Ba²⁺ + CrO₄⁻ + 2H₂O


2) Analysis


That is an oxidation-reduction equation (some species are been oxidized and others are being reduced).


The given equation is known as total ionic equation, because it shows all the species as ions that are part of the reaction.


2) Specator ions


Spectator ions are the ions that do not change their oxidation state and are easily identified as they are the same in the reactant and product sides.


Here the ions that are the same in the reactant and product sides are:

CrO₄⁻ and  Ba²⁺


3) Addtitional explanation.


Once you identify the spectator ions you can delete them from the equation to obtain the net ionic equation , which in this case turns to be:


2H⁺ + 2OH⁻ →  2H₂O


But this is  not part of the question; it is some context to help you understand the use of the spectator ions concept.
