What is the atomic number of pt-175 after it undergoes alpha decay

Chemistry
1 answer:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

76

Explanation:

Alpha decay is one of the most basic forms of radioactive decay. It has an atomic mass of 4 and a proton number of two.

Undergoing an alpha decay will decrease the atomic mass by four and the atomic number by two.

In this particular question, we are particular about the atomic number. The atom has an atomic number of 78. So taking 2 off this gives 76

A particular sample of air is 2.5% water vapor express the concentration of water vapor in parts per million
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

                     25000 ppm

Explanation:

<em>Parts Per Million </em>is defined as the number of parts of a solute per one million parts of a solution.

                  ppm  =  (Weight of Solute / Weight of Solution) × 10⁶   ---(1)

Let us suppose that the air (solution) weights 100 grams, then 2.5 % of water vapors will have following mass,

Mass of Vapors g / 100 g × 100  =  2.5

Or,

Mass of Vapors = 2.5 × 100 / 100

Mass of Vapors  =  2.5 g

Hence, mass of water vapors is 2.5 g.

Now, putting mass of water vapors and air in eq. 1,

                  ppm  =  (2.5 / 100) × 10⁶

                 ppm  =  25000

How many moles of ammonium sulfate can be from the reaction of 30.0 mol of NH3 with H2SO4 according to the following equation: 2
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

15 moles of  ammonium sulfate would be formed from 30 moles of ammonia.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of ammonium sulfate formed = ?

Number of moles of ammonia = 30.0 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2NH₃  +   H₂SO₄  →  (NH₄)₂SO₄

Now we will compare the moles of ammonium sulfate with ammonia.

                           NH₃           :           (NH₄)₂SO₄

                             2              :               1

                            30.0          :              1/2×30.0 = 15.0 mol

So 15 moles of  ammonium sulfate would be formed from 30 moles of ammonia.
