How much energy is released by the decay of 3 grams of 230Th in the following reaction 230 Th - 226Ra + "He (230 Th = 229.9837 g

Serhud [2]

<u>Answer:</u> The energy released for the decay of 3 grams of 230-Thorium is $2.728\times 10^{-15}J$

<u>Explanation:</u>

First we have to calculate the mass defect $(\Delta m)$ .

The equation for the alpha decay of thorium nucleus follows:

$_{90}^{230}\textrm{Th}\rightarrow _{88}^{226}\textrm{Ra}+_2^{4}\textrm{He}$

To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:

Mass defect = Sum of mass of product - Sum of mass of reactant

$\Delta m=(m_{Ra}+m_{He})-(m_{Th})$

$\Delta m=(225.9771+4.008)-(229.9837)=1.4\times 10^{-3}amu=2.324\times 10^{-30}kg$

(Conversion factor: $1amu=1.66\times 10^{-27}kg$ )

To calculate the energy released, we use Einstein equation, which is:

$E=\Delta mc^2$

$E=(2.324\times 10^{-30}kg)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)^2$

$E=2.0916\times 10^{-13}J$

The energy released for 230 grams of decay of thorium is $2.0916\times 10^{-13}J$

We need to calculate the energy released for the decay of 3 grams of thorium. By applying unitary method, we get:

As, 230 grams of Th release energy of = $2.0916\times 10^{-13}J$

Then, 3 grams of Th will release energy of = $\frac{2.0916\times 10^{-13}}{230}\times 3=2.728\times 10^{-15}J$

Hence, the energy released for the decay of 3 grams of 230-Thorium is $2.728\times 10^{-15}J$

Change 2.6 km/day to m/week

professor190 [17]

First, we need to transform km to meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

2.6 * 1000 = 2600

Now, there are 7 days in a week.

Multiply.

2600 * 7 = 18,200

Final answer: 18,200 meters a week

A slice of Swiss cheese contains 47 mg of sodium. (a) What is this mass in grams? .047 (b) What is this mass in ounces? (16 oz =

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

(a) 0.047 g (b) 0.0016 oz (c) 0.0001 lb

Explanation:

The given mass of the sodium in the slice = 47 mg

(a) Mass has to be calculated in grams

The conversion of mg to g is shown below as:

1 mg = 10⁻³ g

So,

<u>Mass of sodium = 47 × 10⁻³ g = 0.047 g</u>

(b) Mass has to be calculated in ounces

The conversion of ounces to g is shown below as:

453.6 g = 16 oz

Or,

1 g = 16 / 453.6 oz

So,

<u>Mass of sodium = (0.047 × 16) / 453.6 oz = 0.0016 oz</u>

(c) Mass has to be calculated in pounds

The conversion of pounds to g is shown below as:

1 lb = 453.6 g

Or,

1 g = 1/ 453.6 lb

So,

<u>Mass of sodium = (0.047 × 1) / 453.6 oz = 0.0001 lb</u>

Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

Molecular equation;

2Li3PO4(aq) + 3CaCl2(aq) >>>> Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6LiCl(aq)

Total ionic equation; . Includes all ions ;

6Li^+(aq) + 2PO4^-3(aq) + 3Ca^+2(aq) + 6Cl^-(aq) >>>> Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6Li^+(aq) + 6Cl^-(aq)

Net ionic equation; remove common ions from total ionic;

2PO4^-3(aq) + 3Ca^+2(aq) >>>> Ca3(PO4)2(s)
