Standard reduction potentials are 1.455 V for the PbO2(s)/Pb(s) couple, 1.82 V for Co3 (aq)/Co2 (aq), 3.06 V for F2(g)/HF(aq), 1

.07 V for Br2(l)/Br-(aq), and 1.77 V for H2O2(aq)/H2O(l). Under standard-state conditions, arrange the oxidizing agents in order of decreasing strength.

Answer:

F2(g)/HF(aq)>Co3 (aq)/Co2 (aq)> H2O2(aq)/H2O(l)> PbO2(s)/Pb(s)>Br2(l)/Br-(aq)

Explanation:

The tendency of any specie to function as oxidizing agent is a highly dependent on the reduction potential of the couple. The more positive the value of the reduction potential of the couple, the better it does as an oxidizing agent.

This implies that we could know a good oxidizing agent by looking at their respective reduction potentials. The couple having the greatest (most positive) reduction potential is selected as the best oxidizing agent. If there are a number of couples at having different reduction potentials, the order of oxidizing ability can be obtained by arranging the species in order of decreasing positive reduction potentials just as we have done in the answer above.

A gas balloon has a volume of 80.0 mL at 300K, and a pressure of 50.0 kPa. If the pressure changes to 80 kPa and the temperature
fomenos

Answer:  The new volume is 53.3 ml

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas =  50.0 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 80.0 kPa

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 80.0 ml

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 300K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 320K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{50.0\times 80.0}{300}=\frac{80.0\times V_2}{320}

V_2=53.3ml

The new volume is 53.3 ml

The first animal cloned by nuclear transfer was a _____ named Dolly.
kifflom [539]
<span>In the sentence "The first animal cloned by nuclear transfer was a _____ named Dolly", the word that correctly completes the sentence is sheep. A sheep named Dolly is the first animal cloned from an adult somatic cell by nuclear transfer. She was cloned at the Roslin Institute of the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1996. There she died in 2003.</span>

1. In general, the nucleus of a small atom is stable. Therefore, over very short distances, such as those in a small nucleus,
postnew [5]
<h3>1. <u>Answer;</u></h3>

a. the strong nuclear force is much greater than the electric force.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>For an atom to be stable it means it has enough amount of binding energy to hold its nucleus together permanently. </u></em>
  • Therefore, <em><u>an unstable atom lacks enough amount of binding energy to hold its nucleus permanently and thus undergoes decay to achieve stability. Unstable atoms are therefore referred to being radioactive.</u></em>
  • Small atoms are stable; <u>this is because they have equal number of protons and neutrons and thus the protons and neutrons fill up energy levels while maximizing the strong force binding the nucleus together. </u>

<h3>9.<u> Answer;</u></h3>

b. change into a different element altogether.

Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay. Therefore, uranium-238 will  <em><u>change into a different element altogether</u></em>.

<h3><u> Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Unstable atoms undergo radioactive decay in order to achieve stability of their nucleus.
  • <em><u>Uranium-238 is an example of such atom, which may undergo decay to achieve stability.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Alpha decay is one of the types of decays,</u></em> others being beta decay and gamma decay. <em><u>In alpha decay the radioactive isotope undergoes decay such that its mass number is decreased by four and its atomic number is decreased by two.</u></em>
  • Therefore, <em><u>Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay to form a different element whose mass number is 234 and atomic number is 90, known as thorium-234. </u></em>
