2. Calculate the density of a liquid in a beaker. The beaker has a mass of 15 grams when empty. The beaker plus an unknown liqui
1 answer:
Answer:
The density of the liquid is 4.9 g/ml
Explanation:
Density of a liquid is usually measured by filling a beaker of known weight and known capacity (total volume in ml you can fill it) and weighing it. The difference between the total weight (beaker+liquid) and the beaker weight is the liquid weight. Finally, you must divide <em>liquid weight/volume</em> to obtain density.
For the problem:
beaker=15 g
beaker+liquid=64 g
⇒liquid= 64 g - 15 g = 49 g
density= =
= 4.9 g/ml

Answer: There are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
Explanation:
Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.
Beta Decay : It is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron. This is also known as -decay. In this the mass number remains same but the atomic number is increased by 1.
In radioactive decay the sum of atomic number or mass number of reactants must be equal to the sum of atomic number or mass number of products .
Thus for mass number : 235 = 207+4X
4X= 28
X = 7
Thus for atomic number : 92 = 82+2X-Y
2X- Y = 10
2(7) - Y= 10
14-10 = Y
Y= 4
Thus there are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
