The molar mass of oxygen gas (O2) is 32.00 g/mol. The molar mass of C3H8 is 44.1 g/mol. What mass of O2, in grams, is required t

Ira Lisetskai [31]

The reaction formula of this is C3H8 + 5O2 --> 3CO2 + 4H2O. The ratio of mole number of C3H8 and O2 is 1:5. 0.025g equals to 0.025/44.1=0.00057 mole. So the mass of O2 is 0.00057*5*32=0.0912 g.

Which of the following correctly represents the transmutation in which a curium-242 nucleus is bombarded with an alpha particle

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The chemical equation is written below.

Explanation:

Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.

The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:

$_{96}^{242}\textrm{Cm}+_4^2\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{98}^{245}\textrm{Cf}+_0^1\textrm{n}$
