What happens to the decaying neutron during beta decay?

1 answer:

A neutron will be converted into a proton, and the process creates an electron and Anrineutrino (while in beta+) Decay, a proton will never converted to a neutron and processess will create a position and the electroneutrio (B+) is also known as Emission

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The standard enthalpy of reaction = -4854.7kJ

The difference: ΔH-ΔE = Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T = 9910.288 J ≈ 9.91 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of heptane:

C₇H₁₆ (l) + 11 O₂ (g) → 7 CO₂ (g) + 8 H₂O (l)

Given: The standard enthalpy of formation ( $\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }$ ) for: C₇H₁₆ (l) = -187.8 kJ/mol, O₂ (g) = 0 kJ/mol, CO₂ (g) = -393.5 kJ/mol, H₂O (l) = -286 kJ/mol

To calculate the standard enthalpy of reaction ( $\Delta H _{r}^{\circ }$ ) can be calculated by the Hess's law:

$\Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [\sum \nu \cdot\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }(products) \right ] - \left [\sum \nu\cdot\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }(reactants) \right ]$

Here, $\nu$ is the stoichiometric coefficient

⇒ $\Delta H _{r}^{\circ } =$

$\left [ 7\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (CO_{2}\right )+ 8\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (H_{2}O \right )\right ]$

$- \left [1\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (C_{7}H_{16}\right ) +11\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (O_{2} \right ) \right ]$

$=\left [ 7\times \left (-393.5 kJ/mol \right )+ 8\times \left (-286 kJ/mol \right )\right ]$

$-\left [1\times \left (-187.8 kJ/mol \right ) +11\times \left (0 kJ/mol \right ) \right ]$

⇒ $\Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [ \left (-2754.5 \right )+ \left (-2288 \right )\right ]\left -[ \left (-187.8 \right ) +\left (0 \right )\right ]$

⇒ $\Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [ -5042.5 ]\left -[ -187.8] = \left ( -4854.7kJ \right )$

To calculate the difference: ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV)

We use the ideal gas equation: P.V = n.R.T

⇒ ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T

Given: Temperature:T = 298K, R = 8.314 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹

Δn = number of moles of gaseous products - number of moles of gaseous reactants = (7)- (11) = (-4)

⇒ ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T = (-4 mol) × (8.314 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹) × (298K) = 9910.288 J = 9.91 kJ (∵ 1 kJ = 1000J )

Practice: How many protons, neutrons and electrons are in the following?

Nata [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

When we have the number of an element followed by a number, that number is the atomic mass.

Atomic mass is the number of protons plus neutrons.

Protons Neutrons

Carbon-13 6 13 - 6 = 7

Chromium-51 24 51- 24 = 27

Strontium-88 38 88 - 38 = 50

Boron-10 5 10 - 5 = 5

A 5.32 g mixture contains both lithium fluoride, LiF, and potassium fluoride, KF. If the mixture contains 3.12 g fluorine, what

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The mass of KF in the mixture is 2.77 gms.

Explanation:

Given;

Total weight of mixture (LiF+KF)=5.32gms

Let, mass of KF in the mixture = x gms

⟹ mass of LiF in mixture =(5.32-x)gms.

We know that :

Atomic weight of F=19gms.

Atomic weight of Li =7gms.

Atomic weight of K = 39 gms.

moles=mass/(molecular weight)

Thus, moles of KF=x/58

and moles of LiF = (5.97-x)/26LiF=(5.97−x)/26

Thus,

moles of F in KF=moles of KF=x/58 ---(1)

moles of F in LiF =moles of LiF= (5.32-x)/26---(2)

From (1) & (2),

Total moles of Fluorine

=(x/58)+((5.32-x)/26)

Hence,

total weight of Fluorine in sample = moles*Atomic weight

=((x/58)+((5.32-x)/26))*19gms.

=3.12 gms.---(given)

Now, solving the equation for x,

26x +(5.32*58)-58x

=3.12*58*26/19

22x=308.56-247.62

x=60.94/22

=2.77 gms. (Answer)

Thus, the mass of KF in the mixture is 2.77 gms.
