Answer:
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms of elements that have the same atomic number but different mass number hence ISOTOPY. Radioactive Isotopes on the other hand are unstable as they either undergo Alpha decay, beta decay or gamma decay compared to stable isotopes.
Radioactive elements decay at varyinf rates as such the rate of radioactive decay is used in the characterization of radioactive element and mostly expressed in terms of the half life of the radioactive elements.
Half life is the time taken for half of the total atoms of an elements to decay into half of its initial sizes. for example, the half life of radium-226 is 1622 years, it implies that if we have 1000000 radium atoms at the beginning, then at the end of 1622years, 500000 would have disintegrated. These phenomenon can never be experienced by stable isotopes as such they can not be used in carbon dating techniques. reason why uranium-238 is mostly and commonly used in the earth crust to estimate the ages of rocks because it has a half life of 4.5 x 10^9 years.
And also, the radioactive isotopes of most common light element are short, they have very short half life (few days or weeks) and they decay rapidly to vanshing point, as such, they are not found in nature to any reasonable extent.
There are two kinds of mixtures
a) homogeneous : the boundary of the two components is not physically distinct
b) heterogeneous:the boundary of the two components is physically distinct
the following separation techniques are common for mixtures
1) filtration: if the two components are forming heterogeneous mixture we can separate them by filtration.
2) boiling: if boiling point of one of the components is less than other
3) magnetic separation: if one of the component is magnetic
4)sieve method: for solid components with difference in size of particles
5) hand picking
Thus the correct match will be as shown in the figure
Answer:
c. carbon monoxide
Explanation:
no one bothers to read why anyways so look at the picture
Answer:
The pressure increases to 3.5 atm.
Solution:
According to Gay-Lussac's Law, " At constant volume and mass the pressure of gas is directly proportional to the applied temperature".
For initial and final states of a gas the equation is,
P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂
Solving for P₂,
P₂ = P₁ T₂ / T₁ ----- (1)
Data Given;
P₁ = 3 atm
T₁ = 27 °C + 273 = 300 K
T₂ = 77 °C + 273 = 350 K
Putting values in eq. 1,
P₂ = (3 atm × 350 K) ÷ 300 K
P₂ = 3.5 atm
