slader Consider the following reactions: A. uranium-238 emits an alpha particle; B. plutonium-239 emits an alpha parti- cle; C.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

For A: The equation is $_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{90}^{234}\textrm{Th}+_2^4\alpha$

For B: The equation is $_{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_2^4\alpha$

For C: The equation is $_{90}^{239}\textrm{Th}\rightarrow _{91}^{235}\textrm{Pa}+_{-1}^0\beta$

Explanation:

Alpha decay process is the process in which nucleus of an atom disintegrates into two particles. The first one which is the alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. This is also known as helium nucleus. The second particle is the daughter nuclei which is the original nucleus minus the alpha particle released.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha$

Beta decay process is defined as the process the neutrons get converted into an electron and a proton. The released electron is known as the beta particle. In this process, the atomic number of the daughter nuclei gets increased by a factor of 1 but the mass number remains the same.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

For A: Uranium-238 emits an alpha particle

The nuclear equation for this process follows:

$_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{90}^{234}\textrm{Th}+_2^4\alpha$

For B: Plutonium-239 emits an alpha particle

The nuclear equation for this process follows:

$_{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_2^4\alpha$

For C: Thorium-239 emits a beta particle

The nuclear equation for this process follows:

$_{90}^{239}\textrm{Th}\rightarrow _{91}^{235}\textrm{Pa}+_{-1}^0\beta$

describe how knowledge of the periodic table would be important in three different careers, based on what you’ve read.

ANEK [815]

The knowledge of periodic table would be important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

<h3>What is the importance of periodic table in following careers?</h3>

Periodic table is organised the whole elements vertically in groups and horizontally in periods with increasing atomic number.

The knowledge of arrangement of these elements serves alot of purposes in the following three different careers:

Medicine: The element, iron is an important metal in the periodic table used in treatment of low blood levels.

Pharmacology: The transition metals are useful in the field of pharmacology for the production of drugs. Example of such elements are chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, and molybdenum.

Engineering: The information of elements in the periodic table helps engineers in designing of materials used for constructions.

Therefore, the knowledge of periodic table is very important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

In the spring of 1984, concern arose over the presence of ethylene dibromide, or EDB, in grains and cereals. EDB has the molecul

Lady bird [3.3K]

869.6 × 10¹⁴ molecules of EDB

Explanation:

We have 1.9 lb of flour with a EDB concentration of 31.5 ppb.

We need to transform lb in grams.

1 lb = 453.6 grams

1.9 lb = (1.9 × 453.6) / 1 = 861.8 grams

Now we determine the number of molecules of EDB in the sample by devise the following reasoning:

if we have 31.5 × 10⁻⁹ g of EDB in 1 g of sample

then we have X g of EDB in 861.8 g of sample

X = (31.5 × 10⁻⁹ × 861.8) / 1 = 27146.7 × 10⁻⁹ g of EDB

Molecular mass of EDB (C₂H₄Br₂) = 188 g/mole

Taking in account that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 10²³ (Avogadro’s number) molecules we devise the following reasoning:

if 188 g of EDB contains 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

then 27146.7 × 10⁻⁹ g of EDB contains Y molecules

Y = (27146.7 × 10⁻⁹ × 6.022 × 10²³) / 188 = 869.6 × 10¹⁴ molecules of EDB
