Unstable, radioactive atom emits alpha and gamma ray to transform into a stable atom.
Emitting an alpha particle, decreases the mass number by four and atomic number by two.
Emitting gamma ray reduces the excess energy of the radioactive atom.
Answer:
HCl, also known as hydrochloric acid, has a covalent bond. The hydrogen (H) atom shares an electron with the chlorine (Cl) to form the bond.
Explanation:
Consequently, the bonding electrons in hydrogen chloride are shared unequally in a polar covalent bond. The molecule is represented by the conventional Lewis structure, even though the shared electron pair is associated to a larger extent with chlorine than with hydrogen.
10.3 is good the correct rounding of three sig figures
Answer:
The correct answer to this question is (c) 25.0 m
Explanation:
To solve this we list out the variables thus
mole fraction of sodium hydroxide = 0.310
Mole fraction = number of moles of a component ÷ total number of moles in the solution
Mole fraction = 0.310
In a saturaturated aqueous solution we have NaOH and water
∴ Number of moles of water molecules per unit = 1 - 0.310 = 0.690
However 0.690 moles of H₂O weighs = 0.690 mole × 18.01528 g/mol =12.43 g = 0.01243 kg of H₂O
But the molality = number of moles per Kilogram of H₂O
therefore molality of NaOH in the sample of solution =
(0.310 mol of NaOH )÷(0.01243 kg of H₂O)
= 24.93 mol/kg or ≅ 25.0 m
