In 1940 , it was discovered that uranium could be artificially changed to plutonium, a process called transmutation. What combin

ation of decay processes would convert U-239 (92 protons) into Pu-239 (94 protons)?

The combination of decay processes that would convert U-239 into PU- 239 is beta decay followed by another beta decay. Beta decay involves the emission of an electron [positron]. There are two types of beta decay; positive and negative beta decays and both occur simultaneously in order to move the atoms towards stability.

Why did me need to have the same molecules in each bottle? and what would have happened if we didn't use the same molecules?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

it's just like doing a test grade on children if you give them different tests they might not come up with the same results, the molecules need to be the same or else the experiment will be even.

Explanation:

whenever water is hot the molecules will bounce really fast in the bottle, whenever water is cold he will go really slow in the bottle

In the reaction of nitrogen gas with oxygen gas to produce nitrogen oxide, what is the effect of adding more oxygen gas to the i
Alborosie
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The Equilibrium would shift to produce more NO

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The reaction is;

N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇆ 2NO(g)

  • When a reaction is at equilibrium then the forward reaction rate will be equivalent to the reverse reaction rate. Additionally, the concentration of the reactants and products are the same.
  • From Le Chatelier's principle, additional reactants favor the formation of more products while additional products favor the formation of more reactants.
  • For example, when more oxygen is added then more Nitrogen (II) oxide will be formed.
  • Oxygen is a reactant and when increased it favors forward reaction which leads to the formation of more NO which is the product.

A chemical reaction produced 177.3 grams of chlorine has (Cl²). What was the volume of the gas?
vichka [17]
Since there is so little information given, I will assume that we are at STP and i can use the conversion factor at STP--->> 22.4 Liters= 1 mol of gas

before we use this conversion, we need to convert the grams to moles using the molar mass of the molecule.

molar mass of Cl₂= 35.5 x 2= 71.0 g/ mol

177.3 g (1 mol/ 71.0 g)= 2.50 mol Cl₂

then we use the conversion to get the volume

2.50 mol Cl₂ (22.4 Liters/ 1 mol)= 55.9 Liters
