223Ra decays by alpha emission with a half-life of 11.43 days. For a 1.0g sample of 223Ra, after one half-life, what mass of 223

Explanation:

The reaction that shows the alpha decay of ^{223}_{88}Ra is:

^{223}_{88}Ra\rightarrow ^{219}_{86}Rn+^{4}_{2}He

Half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half. So,

Mass\ of\ ^{223}_{88}Ra\ remained=\frac {Initial\ concentration}{2}=\frac {1.0\ g}{2}=0.5\ g

The remaining mass is converted to ^{219}_{86}Rn.

Consider the hydrocarbon below.
Ket [755]
It is an Alkene because it has a double bond, so it’ll have “ene” at the end. The simplest Alkene has 2 carbons.

2 carbons = “eth”

Look at that! Two carbons! It must be “ethene”

Which of the following changes to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12?
ivanzaharov [21]

C. Tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of 2 is the change to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As we know that the resistance is directly proportional to the length of the pipe and it is inversely proportional to the cross sectional area of the pipe.

So it is represented as,

R∝ l /A [ area is radius square]

So k is the proportionality constant used.

R = kl/A

Conductance is the inverse of resistance, so it is given as,

C= 1/R.

R₁ = kl₁ / A₁

R₂ = kl₂/A₂

R₂/R₁ = 1/12 [∵ conductance is the inverse of resistance]

        = l₂A₁ / l₁A₂

If we chose l₁/l₂= 3 and A₂/A₁= 4 So R₂/R₁= 1/3×4 = 1/12

So tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of 2 would increase the conductance by a factor of 12.

What is the difference between the molar mass and the empirical formula mass of a compound? when are these masses the same, and
fomenos
Molar mass is the mass of one stable molecule of a compound, that cannot join with another molecule of the same kind to form a new one, while an empirical formula is the molecular formula in its simplest form. E.g. empirical formula of ethene is CH2while its molecular formula is C2H4.

A liquid has a density of 1.17 g/cm3, how many liters of the liquid have a mass of 3.75 kg
Luda [366]
<span>There are 1000 cm3 in 1 liters. Hence 1 liter of the liquid would weigh: 1000 cm3 x (1.17 g/cm3) = 1170 gm and there are 1000 gm in 1 kg, so we want enough liters to have a mass of 3.75 kg x 1000 gm/kg = 3750 gm Hence, # of liters = desired mass / # of gm per liter = 3750 gm / 1170 gm/liter = 3.2051282 liters</span>
