K5O2

convert grams to moles, divide both by the smallest mole mass, multiply that until hole.

30.5 g K ÷ 39.10 = .78 mol
6.24 g O ÷ 16 = .39 mol
.78 mol ÷ .39 mol = 2.5
.39 mol ÷ .39 mol = 1
2.5 x 2 = 5
1 x 2 = 2
K5O2

Write a nuclear equation for the alpha decay of 23892U.23892U → 0−1e + 23893Np23892U → 10n + 23792U23892U → 42He + 23490Th23892U
romanna [79]

Answer:

23892U=23490Th +42He

Explanation:

In alpha decay, the daughter nucleus is two units less than the parent in atomic number. The mass number also decreases by 4 units. The daughter is thus found two places before the parent in the periodic table.

1. How many molecules are in 240g of sulfuric acid?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

14.8 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sulfuric acid = 240 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

Number of moles of sulfuric acid

<em>Number of moles = mass/ molar mass</em>

Number of moles =  240 g/ 98 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.45 mol

Number of molecules:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

2.45 × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

14.8 × 10²³ molecules

For the hypothetical reaction: A + B ---&gt; 2C, write an expression that relates the disappearance of A and B to the appearance
forsale [732]

Answer:

Rate expression has been given below

Explanation:

According to the given equation, 1 molecule of A reacts with 1 molecule of B and produces 2 molecules of B at a time.

So, rate of disappearance of both A and B are one half of rate of appearance of B

Hence rate expression can be represented as:

Rate=\frac{-\Delta [A]}{\Delta t}=\frac{-\Delta [B]}{\Delta t}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t}

where \frac{-\Delta [A]}{\Delta t} is rate of disappearance of A, \frac{-\Delta [B]}{\Delta t} is rate of disappearance of B and \frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t} rate of appearance of C
