What happens in the artificial transmutation of an element? Include an example.

1 answer:

6 0

What happens in the artificial transmutation is that the nucleous is bombarded with high energy particles which we can describe as kinetic energy and the idea for them is to induce what we call transmutation. Also what happens is that the high energy particles are accelerated. One of the examples is when nitrogen is transformed into hydrogen by combining its nucleous with an alpha particle

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: The answer is biotic

Explanation:Mushrooms are biotic because they are living things. Abiotic means non living, so these are factors in the environment that influence a living thing's life and chance of survival

Answer : The only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Explanation :

Disproportionation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction reaction. It is a redox reaction.

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

(A) The given balanced reaction is,

$H_2SeO_4(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2H^+(aq)\rightarrow H_2SeO_3(aq)+Cl_2(g)+H_2O(l)$

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which chlorine shows oxidation and selenium shows reduction.

(B) The given balanced reaction is,

$S_8(s)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 8SO_2(g)$

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which sulfur shows oxidation and oxygen shows reduction.

(C) The given balanced reaction is,

$3Br_2(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)$

This reaction is a disproportionation reaction because in this reaction only one reactant bromine that shows both oxidation and reduction reaction.

(D) The given balanced reaction is,

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of calcium and sulfate.

(E) The given balanced reaction is,

$PtCl_4(s)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PtCl_6^{2-}(aq)$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of platinum and chlorine.

Hence, the only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Formation of water: 2H2 + 1 O2 --> 2H2O

noname [10]

Answer:

2.2 moles H2O

Explanation:

$35g O_2 \mbox{ \cdot }\frac{1mol}{32g/mol} \mbox{ \cdot }\frac{2mol H_2O}{1mol O_2}= 2.1875$ , which rounds to about 2.2
