Which one of the following is a correct representation of an alpha particle?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex Ar [27]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

₂He⁴  

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴  + energy

Analyze the graph below and answer the question that follows.
Yuki888 [10]

C. (-2,-2) is the answer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When we reflect a point (x, y) across the y-axis, after the reflection, the y-coordinate tends to be the same, however the x-coordinate is changed into its opposite sign.

Here U(2,-2) is reflected across the y-axis then,

the y-coordinate -2 remains the same and the x-coordinate is transformed into its opposite that is the sign of the x-coordinate will be changed as -2.

So the new coordinates of U after reflection will be (-2,-2).

Look at the picture of two different substances above. Which substance is a mixture? A. Y and Z
Feliz [49]

Answer:

option B is correct.

Y is a mixture in the picture.

Explanation:

Different types of substances combine physically and form a mixture.  

Mixture formed by the combination of two or more substances that that combine in same physical state.

For example mixture of copper sulphate and solid chloride in dry form and that will look like white and blue crystal in a mixture.

The picture Z showing dots of same color and is not a mixture, while picture Y shows dots of different colors clearly indicating that it is picture for mixture.

The specific heat of gold is 0.031 calories/gram°C. If 10.0 grams of gold were heated and the temperature of the sample
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

6.2 calories

Explanation:

Data Given:

change in temperature = 20 °C

specific heat of gold = 0.031 calories/gram °C

mass of gold = 10.0 grams

Amount of Heat = ?

Solution:

Formula used

             Q = Cs.m.ΔT

Where:

Q = amount of heat

Cs = specific heat of gold = 0.031 calories/gram °C

m = mass

ΔT = Change in temperature

Put values in above equation

                Q = 0.031 calories/gram °C x 10.0 g x 20 °C

                Q = 6.2 calories

So option A is correct = 6.2 calories

Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant, Kc , for the equilibrium shown below, if 0.124 moles of NO, 0.0240 mole of H2,
sdas [7]

the reaction is

2NO(g) + 2H2(g) <—> N2(g) + 2H2O (g)

Kc = [N2] [ H2O]^2 / [NO]^2 [ H2]^2

Given

moles of NO = 0.124 therefore [NO] = moles /volume = 0.124 /2 = 0.062

moles of H2 = 0.0240 , therefore [H2] = moles / volume = 0.0240 / 2 = 0.012

moles of N2 = 0.0380 , therefore [N2] = moles / volume = 0.0380 / 2 = 0.019

moles of H2O  = 0.0276 , therefore [H2O] = moles / volume = 0.0276 / 2 = 0.0138

Kc = (0.019) ( 0.0138)^2 / (0.062)^2 ( 0.012)^2 = 6.54
