Explanation:

Reactivity of non-metals depend on their ability to gain electrons. So, smaller is the size of a non-metal more readily it will attract electrons because then nucleus will be more closer to valence shell.

Hence, both bromine (Br) and astatine (At) belongs to same group. Size of bromine is smaller than the size of astatine.

Hence, Br is the non-metal which will be more reactive than At.

Which electrophiles can react with an enol?

dlinn [17]

THE MOLECULE HAS A C=C AND AN -OH GROUP, SO IT IS CALLED AN ENE/OL, I.E., AN ENOL. ENOLS CAN BE FORMED ONLY FROM CARBONYL COMPOUNDS WHICH HAVE ALPHA HYDROGENS. THEY CAN BE FORMED BY ACID OR BASE CATALYSIS, AND ONCE FORMED ARE HIGHLY REACTIVE TOWARD ELECTROPHILES, LIKE BROMINE.

Answer:

From Earth, the Sun looks like it moves across the sky in the daytime and appears to disappear at night. This is because the Earth is spinning towards the east. The Earth spins about its axis, an imaginary line that runs through the middle of the Earth between the North and South poles.

Part complete When a 235 92U nucleus is bombarded by neutrons (10n) it undergoes a fission reaction, resulting in the formation

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: The isotopic symbol of barium is $_{56}^{138}\textrm{Ba}$ and that of strontium is $_{38}^{89}\textrm{Sr}$

Explanation:

Nuclear fission reactions are defined as the reactions in which a heavier nuclei breaks down in two or more smaller nuclei.

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

For the given fission reaction:

$^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^A_Z\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{36}\textrm{Kr}+3^1_0\textrm{n}$

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

235 + 1 = A + 94 + 3

A = 139

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

92 + 0 = Z + 36 + 0

Z = 56

The isotopic symbol of barium is $_{56}^{139}\textrm{Ba}$

For the given fission reaction:

$^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^A_Z\textrm{Sr}+^{143}_{54}\textrm{Xe}+3^1_0\textrm{n}$

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

235 + 1 = A + 143 + 3

A = 90

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

92 + 0 = Z + 54 + 0

Z = 38

The isotopic symbol of strontium is $_{38}^{89}\textrm{Sr}$

Hence, the isotopic symbol of barium is $_{56}^{138}\textrm{Ba}$ and that of strontium is $_{38}^{89}\textrm{Sr}$

Why do you need to use soap when you wash oil from your hands

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Germs stick to the oil on your hands, and washing with just water doesn't work because oil and water don't mix, but soap dislodges the germs and oil from your hands
