When uranium-238 is transformed into thorium-234, it is represented by a balanced equation. What is missing from the equation of

U-238 undergoing radioactive decay?
Chemistry

The unstable atomic nucleus of Uranium-238 emits ionizing particles and loses energy in order to achieve a stable state. This process is called the Radioactive decay. This isotope undergoes Alpha decay by emitting Alpha rays. It has a decay energy of 4.267 MeV.

What mass of sucrose (C12H22O11) should be combined with 546 g of water to make a solution with an osmotic pressure of 8.80 atm
lesya [120]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sucrose required is 69.08 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

\pi=iMRT

Or,

\pi=i\times \frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}\times RT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure of the solution = 8.80 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

Mass of solute (sucrose) = ?

Molar mass of sucrose = 342.3 g/mol

Volume of solution = 564 mL    (Density of water = 1 g/mL)

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of the solution = 290 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

8.80atm=1\times \frac{\text{Mass of sucrose}\times 1000}{342.3\times 546}\times 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 290K\\\\\text{Mass of sucrose}=\frac{8.80\times 342.3\times 546}{1\times 1000\times 0.0821\times 290}=69.08g

Hence, the mass of sucrose required is 69.08 g

What is the chemical reaction for Mg + NaOH also with the ionic equations and subscripts?
Roman55 [17]
The chemical reaction of magnesium and sodium hydroxide would yield magnesium hydroxide and sodium. The chemical reaction is expressed as:
Mg(s)+ 2NaOH(aq)→Mg(OH)2(s)+2Na
In ionic form,
Mg(s) + 2Na+ + 2OH−(aq)→Mg(OH)2(s) + 2Na

Determine whether or not the mixing of each pair of solutions results in a buffer. Show all work!
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

a) Acidic buffer

b) No buffer

c) Acidic buffer

d) Basic buffer

e) Basic buffer

Explanation:

a) 75.0 mL of 0.10 M HF ; 55.0 mL of 0.15 M NaF -Acidic buffer

Mixing of 75.0 mL of 0.10 HF and 55.0 mL of 0.15 mL NaF results in acidic buffer. HF/NaF is a buffer of weak acid and its conjugate base. F- is the conjugate base of acid,HF.

b.) 150.0 mL of 0.10 M HF ; 135.0 mL of 0.175 M HCl-No buffer

Mixing HF and HCl will not results in a buffer. Both are acids, and no conjugate base is present.

c.) 165.0 mL of 0.10 M HF ; 135.0 mL of 0.050 M KOH-Acidic buffer

HF reacts with KOH to form KF. F- is a conjujate base of HF. As volume and concentration of HF is more than KOH, therefore, HF will remain after reaction with KOH. HF/KF will be a buffer of weak acid and its conjugate base.

d.) 125.0 mL of 0.15 M CH3NH2 ; 120.0 mL of 0.25 M CH3NH3Cl -Basic buffer

CH3NH2/CH3NH3+ is a buffer of weak base and its conjugate acid.

e.) 105.0 mL of 0.15 M CH3NH2 ; 95.0 mL of 0.10 M HCl-Basic buffer

CH3NH2 is a weak base and HCl is a strong acid. CH3NH2 reacts with HCl to form its conjugate acid CH3NH3+. Volume and concentration of CH3NH2 is more as compared to HCl and hence, will remain in the soution after reactionf with HCl.

CH3NH3+/CH3NH2 is a buffer of weak base and its conjugate acid.

What type of bond involves sharing electrons?NEED THIS ASAP​
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a covalent bond

Explanation:

A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.
