3 0

Answer : The types of radiation known to be emitted by radioactive elements are, alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays.

Explanation :

Radioactive decay : It the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting the radiations like, alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays.

The naturally occurring radioactive elements are, radium, thorium, and uranium.

Alpha particle : It is also known as alpha radiation or alpha ray that consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons that are bound together into a particle that is identical to the helium nucleus. It is produced in the process of alpha decay.

Beta particle : It is also known as beta radiation or beta ray. During the beta decay process, a high energy and speed electron or positron are emitted by the radioactive decay of atomic nucleus.

Gamma particle : It is also a gamma radiation or gamma ray that is arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It has shortest wavelength waves and imparts high photon energy can pass through most forms of matters because they have no mass.

Calculate the density of a cube of iron that measures 3.50cm, 0.755 cm, 2.25cm on each side and weighs 47.0g?
laila [671]

Answer: 7.90 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density = Mass / Volume

The first step is to find the volume by multiplying the three measures of the cube that have been provided.

3.50 x 0.755 x 2.25 = 5.95 cm^3

Now we can plug the numbers into our equation.

Density = 47.0g / 5.95 cm^3

Density = 7.90 g/cm^3

Given that a for HCN is 6. 2×10^−10 at 25 °C. What is the value of b for cn− at 25 °C?
Kay [80]

If Ka for HCN is 6. 2×10^−10 at 25 °C, then the value of Kb for cn− at 25 °C is 1.6 × 10^(-5).

<h3>What is base dissociation constant? </h3><h3 />

The base dissociation constant (Kb) is defined as the measurement of the ions which base can dissociate or dissolve in the aqueous solution. The greater the value of base dissociation constant greater will be its basicity an strength.

The dissociation reaction of hydrogen cyanide can be given as

HCN --- (H+) + (CN-)

Given,

The value of Ka for HCN is 6.2× 10^(-10)

The correlation between base dissociation constant and acid dissociation constant is

Kw = Ka × Kb

Kw = 10^(-14)

Substituting values of Ka and Kw,

Kb = 10^(-14) /{6.2×10^(-10) }

= 1.6× 10^(-5)

Thus, the value of base dissociation constant at 25°C is 1.6 × 10^(-5).
