<u>Answer:</u> No crystals of potassium sulfate will be seen at 0°C for the given amount.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Mass of potassium nitrate = 47.6 g
Mass of potassium sulfate = 8.4 g
Mass of water = 130. g
Solubility of potassium sulfate in water at 0°C = 7.4 g/100 g
This means that 7.4 grams of potassium sulfate is soluble in 100 grams of water
Applying unitary method:
In 100 grams of water, the amount of potassium sulfate dissolved is 7.4 grams
So, in 130 grams of water, the amount of potassium sulfate dissolved will be
As, the soluble amount is greater than the given amount of potassium sulfate
This means that, all of potassium sulfate will be dissolved.
Hence, no crystals of potassium sulfate will be seen at 0°C for the given amount.
Answer:
Here's what I find.
Explanation:
Iodine-131
Iodine-131 is both a beta emitter and a gamma emitter.
About 90 % of the energy is β-radiation and 10 % is γ-radiation. Both forms are highly energetic.
The main danger is from ingestion. The iodine concentrates in thyroid gland, where the β-radiation destroys cells up to 2 mm from the tissues that absorbed it.
Both the β- and γ-radiation cause cell mutations that can later become cancerous. Small doses, such as those absorbed from the nuclear disasters in the Ukraine and Japan, can cause cancers years after the original iodine has disappeared.
Plutonium-239
Plutonium-239 is an alpha emitter.
Alpha particles cannot penetrate the skin, so external exposure isn't much of a health risk.
However, they are extremely dangerous when they are inhaled and get inside cells. They travel first to the blood or lymph system and later to the bone marrow and liver, where they cause up to 1000 times more chromosomal damage than beta or gamma rays.
It takes about 20 years for plutonium to be eliminated from the liver around 50 years for from the skeleton, so it has a long time to cause damage.
Answer:
204.5505 grams
2.5666 moles
Explanation:
For the first question, multiply 3.5 (# of moles) by 58.443 (g/mol for NaCl).
58.443 * 3.5
<em>I'll distribute 3.5 into 58.443.</em>
(3.5 * 50) + (3.5 * 8) + (3.5 * 0.4) + (3.5 * 0.04) + (3.5 * 0.003)
175 + 28 + 1.4 + 0.14 + 0.0105
203 + 1.4 + 0.14 + 0.0105
204.4 + 0.14 + 0.0105
204.54 + 0.0105
204.5505 grams
There are 204.5505 grams in 3.5 moles of NaCl.
For the second question, divide 150 (# of grams) by 58.443 (g/mol for NaCl). I'll convert both into fractions.
150/1 * 1000/58443
150000/58443
2.56660336 moles
2.5666 moles (rounded to 4 places to keep consistency with the first answer) are in 150 grams of NaCl.
