Answer:

Answer is: 20 min.Bismuth 214 decay mode to lead is beta minus decay and alpha decay.Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.

There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron.Alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four.

What is the equation for figuring out the Atomic Mass

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Atomic mass = mass of protons + mass of neutrons

Explanation:

In an element atomic mass of an atom can be calculated by adding the mass of protons and neutrons

Consider the neutralization reaction 2 HNO 3 ( aq ) + Ba ( OH ) 2 ( aq ) ⟶ 2 H 2 O ( l ) + Ba ( NO 3 ) 2 ( aq ) A 0.120 L sample

k0ka [10]

Answer:

The concentration of the HNO3 solution is 0.150 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the unknown HNO3 sample = 0.120 L

Volume of the 0.200 M Ba(OH)2 = 45.1 mL

Step 2: The balanced equation

2HNO3 + Ba(OH)2 ⟶ Ba(NO3)2 + 2H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles Ba(OH)2

moles Ba(OH)2 = molarity * volume

moles Ba(OH)2 = 0.200 M * 0.0451 L

moles Ba(OH)2 = 0.00902 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of HNO3

For 1 mole of Ba(OH)2 we need 2 moles of HNO3

For 0.00902 moles of Ba(OH)2 we need 2*0.00902 = 0.01804 moles

Step 5: Calculate molarity of HNO3

molarity = moles / volume

molarity = 0.01804 / 0.120 L

Molarity = 0.150 M HNO3

The concentration of the HNO3 solution is 0.150 M

Which solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure?

julia-pushkina [17]

Pressure: when the external pressure is:
less than one atmosphere, the boiling point of the liquid is lower than its normal boiling point.
equal to one atmosphere, the boiling point of a liquid is called the normal boiling point.
greater than one atmosphere, the boiling point of the liquid is greater than its normal boiling point.
