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

Chemistry

Mice21 [21]3 years ago
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

A compound consisting of B, N, and H undergoes elemental analysis. The % composition by mass is found to be 40.28% B, 52.20% N,
swat32

Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up a compound.

The percentage composition of each element has been given

therefore the mass present of each element in 100 g of compound is

                      B                                   N                         H

mass          40.28 g                         52.20 g                 7.53 g

number of moles  

                 40.28 g / 11 g/mol      52.20 g / 14 g/mol    7.53 g / 1 g/mol

                = 3.662 mol                  = 3.729 mol             = 7.53 mol

divide the number of moles by the least number of moles, that is 3.662

                3.662 / 3.662              3.729 / 3.662              7.53 / 3.662

               = 1.000                           = 1.018                        = 2.056

the ratio of the elements after rounding off to the nearest whole number is

B : N : H = 1 : 1 : 2

therefore empirical formula for the compound is B₁N₁H₂          

that can be written as BNH₂

A container of oxygen with a volume of 60 L is heated from 300 K to 400 k, What is the new volume?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

80L

Explanation:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V2 = V1 T2/T1

T1 = 300K

V1 = 60L

T2 = 400K

V2 = ?

V2 = V1 T2/T1

V2 = (60L)(400K) / (300K)

V2 = 80L

Which of the following is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds? 1. Li 2. Cl 3. N 4. H 5. F
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of lithium is 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1. So, to attain stability it will loose an electron and hence, it forms a single bond.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17 and it has 7 valence electrons. Hence, in order to attain stability it will gain one electron and therefore, it forms a single bond only.

Atomic number of nitrogen is 7 and its electronic distribution is 2, 5. Therefore, to attain stability it needs to gain 3 more electrons. Hence, a nitrogen atom is able to form a triple bond and also it is able to form a double bond.

Hydrogen has atomic number 1 and it attains stability by gaining one electron. Therefore, a hydrogen atoms always forms a single bond.

Atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. To complete its octet it needs to gain one electron. Hence, a fluorine atom always forms a single bond.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options nitrogen is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds.
