The Solvay process is a multistep industrial process used to produce washing soda, Na2CO3(s). In the last step of the Solvay pro

cess, NaHCO3(s) is heated to 300°C, producing washing soda, water, and carbon dioxide. This reaction is represented by the balanced equation below.
2NaHCO3(s) + heat ==> Na2CO3(s) + H2O(g) + CO2(g)

Write the IUPAC name for washing soda.

Its IUPAC name is sodium carbonate. It is also known as soda ash. It is the water soluble sodium salt of carbonic acid and occurs as a crystalline heptahydrate. Sodium carbonate has an alkaline taste and when in solution forms a basic solution. One important application is that it is used commonly as a water softener.

When a mercury-202 nucleus is bombarded with a neutron, a proton is ejected. What element is formed?
Galina-37 [17]

That will make a gold-202 nucleus.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.

Step One: Bombard the \displaystyle ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} with a neutron ^{1}_{0}n. The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}. However, the atomic number will stay the same.

  • New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
  • Atomic number is still 80.

^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} + ^{1}_{0}n \to ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}.

Double check the equation:

  • Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
  • Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

Step Two: The ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} nucleus loses a proton ^{1}_{1}p. Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.

  • New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
  • New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.

Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.

^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} \to ^{202}_{\phantom{2}79}\text{Au} + ^{1}_{1}p.

Double check the equation:

  • Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
  • Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

A gold-202 nucleus is formed.

Why does Australia get more UV light than the other parts of the world?
Nataly [62]
During summer, the Earth's orbit brings Australia closer to the sun (as compared to Europe during its summer), resulting in an additional 7% solar UV intensity. Coupled with our clearer atmospheric conditions, this means that Australians are exposed to up to 15% more UV than Europeans.

Chrysanthenone is an unsaturated ketone. If Chrysanthenone has M+ = 150 and contains 2 double bond(s) and 2 ring(s); what is its
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

the Molecular formula will be; C10H14O

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Chrysanthenone is an unsaturated ketone,

it has M+ = 150 and contains 2 double bond(s) and 2 ring(s).

molecular formula = ?

we know that ketone contain 1 oxygen and mass of oxygen is 16

so mass of the C and H remaining will be;

⇒ 150 - 16 = 134

Now we determine the number of C atoms;

⇒ 134 / 13 = 10

hydrocarbon with 10 hydrogen atom have CnH2n+2 means

⇒ ( 10 × 2 ) +2 = 22 hydrogens

But then we have 3 unsaturation meaning 6 hydrogens less and also we have ring meaning 2 more hydrogens

⇒ 22 - 6 - 2 = 14

Hence the Molecular formula will be; C10H14O
