Answer:

₃₈Sr⁸⁰ → ₃₇Rb⁸⁰ + ⁰₊₁e

Explanation:

Positron emission:

It is also called beta positive decay in which the neutron inside of the nucleus converted into the proton an thus emit the positron and electron neutrino which is called β particle.

Properties of beta radiation:

The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.

They can travel in air in few meter distance.

These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.

The sheet of aluminium is used to block the beta radiation

⁴₆C → ¹⁴₇N + ⁰₋₁e

The beta radiations are emitted in this reaction. The one electron is ejected and neutron is converted into proton. It is beta minus decay.

Rank the following atoms in order of increasing electronegativity.a. Se, O, S b. P, Na, Cl c. Cl, S, F d. O, P, N

Papessa [141]

Answer:

a)- Se, S, O

b)- Na, P, Cl

c)- S, Cl, F

d)- P, N, O

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by looking at the Periodic Table. In a group, electronegativity increases from bottom to top; whereas in periods it increases from left to right.

Thus, we order the elements from lower to higher electronegativity as follows:

a. Se, O, S ⇒ order: Se, S, O

Because they are all in the same group. Se is near the bottom, followed by S and O is at the top.

b. P, Na, Cl ⇒ order: Na, P, Cl

They are in the same period. Na is at the left, followed by P and Cl is nearest the right.

c. Cl, S, F ⇒ order: S, Cl, F

P and Cl are in the same period, and P is at the left, so it has the lowest electronegativity. F is in the same group of Cl, but at the top. F has the highest electronegativity.

d. O, P, N ⇒ order: P, N, O

N and P are in the same group, but P is at the bottom so it has the lower electronegativity. N and O are in the same period, but O is at the right, so it is the most electronegative.

Rank the solutions in order of decreasing [H3O ]. Rank solutions from largest to smallest hydronium ion concentration. To rank i

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

0.10M HCN < 0.10 M HClO < 0.10 M HNO₂ < 0.10 M HNO₃

Explanation:

We are comparing acids with the same concentration. So what we have to do first is to determine if we have any strong acid and for the rest ( weak acids ) compare them by their Ka´s ( look for them in reference tables ) since we know the larger the Ka, the more Hydronium concentration will be in these solutions at the same concentration.

HNO₃ is a strong acid and will have the largest hydronium concentration.

HCN Ka = 6.2 x 10⁻¹⁰

HNO₂ Ka = 4.0 x 10⁻⁴

HClO Ka = 3.0 x 10⁻⁸

The ranking from smallest to largest hydronium concentration will then be:

0.10M HCN < 0.10 M HClO < 0.10 M HNO₂ < 0.10 M HNO₃

This is 25 points. Pick any of the 6 questions and show how you did it. I just need to see how you do it and get the answer. You

FromTheMoon [43]

I choose question 1, so molarity is the concentration of a soulution expressed as the number of moles of solute by the litress of soulution. to get molarity you divide the moles of soulute by the litress of solution. soo 1 calculate the number of moles of solute present. 2 Calculate the number of litress solution present. 3. divide the number of moles of solute by the number of litress of solution
soo 1 mol of NaOH has a mass of 40.00 g, so moles of NaOH= 26.7. 1 mole divided 40.00 = 0.375. litress of solution = 650 g. im not sure why its a g i usally do it Ls so i guess its the way your teacher wants you to do it so do you know how to do that. so molarity = moles of solute and litress solution. sorry this probably didnt help i just wanted to add something that might help. im still working on this stuff myself hope this helps.

The high polarity of the oxygen-carbon bond in alcohols is what allows them to be soluble in water.

Anna11 [10]

This is false. An alcohol does indeed have a polar C-O single bond, but what we should really be focusing on is the extraordinarily polar O-H single bond. When oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen is bound to a hydrogen atom, there is a small (but not negligible) charge separation, where the eletronegative N, O, or F has a partial negative charge, and the H has a partial positive charge. Water has two O-H single bonds in it (structure is H-O-H). The partially negative charge on the O of the water molecule (specifically around the lone pair) can become attracted either a neighboring water molecule's partially positive H atom, or an alcohol's partially positive H atom. This is weak (and partially covalent) attraction is called a hydrogen bond. This is stronger than a typical dipole-dipole attraction (as would be seen between neighboring C-O single bonds), and much stronger than dispersion forces (between any two atoms). When the solvent (water) and the solute (the alcohol) both exhibit similar intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding being the most important in this case), they can mix completely in all proportions (i.e. they are miscible) in water.
