Answer: -

²²³Ra is the daughter nuclide produced when ²²⁷Th undergoes alpha decay

Explanation: -

When alpha decay occurs, the mass number of the parent decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.

Mass number of ²²⁷Th =227

Atomic number of ²²⁷Th = 90

Mass number of daughter = 227 - 4 = 223

Atomic number of daughter = 90 - 2 = 88

88 is the atomic number of Ra Radium.

Thus the daughter is ²²³Ra

GarryVolchara [31]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Welding is an industrial process that is used to join pieces of metal. A certain mixture of gases used in welding is composed of carbon dioxide and argon. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide is 0.080 atm and the partial pressure of argon is 0.24 atm. What is the total pressure of the mixture.

Answer: 0.32 atm

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

$p_{total}=p_{CO_2}+p_{Ar}$

Given : $p_{total}$ =total pressure of gases = ?

$p_{CO_2}$ = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = 0.080 atm

$p_{Ar}$ = partial pressure of argon = 0.24 atm

putting in the values we get:

$p_{total}=0.080atm+0.24atm$

$p_{total}=0.32atm$

Thus the total pressure of the gases is 0.32 atm

How many atoms of oxygen are in 0.100 mol of silicon dioxide?

lys-0071 [83]

1) Silicon dioxide formula: SiO2 ....... 2 is a subscript for the O atom

2) From the formula you have 1 molecula of SiO2 contains 1 atom of SiO2

3) Then, 0.100 mol of SiO2 contains 0.1 mol of Si

4) Multiply by Avogadro's number: 0.100mol * 6.022*10^23 atoms/mol= 6.02*10^22 atoms

Answer: 6.02*10^22 atoms
