<u>Answer:</u> The particle released in the given reaction is one alpha particle
<u>Explanation:</u>
In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.
For the given fission reaction:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
222 = A + 218
A = 4
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
86 = Z + 84
Z = 2
The isotopic symbol of unknown element is
. Another name of helium atom is alpha particle.
Hence, the particle released in the given reaction is one alpha particle
Answer:
The genetic code is stored in the DNA. DNA is a molecule formed by a sugar, deoxyribose, a phosphate group and four combined nitrogen bases: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G). A gene is a part of DNA.
Answer:
50
Explanation:
We will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.
1. Gather all the information in one place with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.
Mᵣ: 30.01 32.00 46.01
2NO + O₂ ⟶ 2NO₂
Mass/g: 80.00 16.00
2. Calculate the moles of each reactant

3. Calculate the moles of NO₂ we can obtain from each reactant
From NO:
The molar ratio is 2 mol NO₂:2 mol NO

From O₂:
The molar ratio is 2 mol NO₂:1 mol O₂

4. Identify the limiting and excess reactants
The limiting reactant is O₂ because it gives the smaller amount of NO₂.
The excess reactant is NO.
5. Mass of excess reactant
(a) Moles of NO reacted
The molar ratio is 2 mol NO:1 mol O₂

(b) Mass of NO reacted

(c) Mass of NO remaining
Mass remaining = original mass – mass reacted = (80.00 - 30.01) g = 50 g NO
M(O₂)=20g
M(O₂)=32.0 g/mol
n(O₂)=20/32.0=0.625 mol
m(C)=12 g
M(C)=12.0 g/mol
n(C)=12/12.0=1.0 mol
2C + O₂ → 2CO
1 mol 0.625 mol 1 mol
0.625-0.5=0.125 mol
2CO + O₂ → 2CO₂
0.250 mol 0.125 mol 0.250 mol
n(CO)=1 mol - 0.250 mol = 0.750 mol
M(CO)=28.0 g/mol
m(CO)=0.750*28.0=21.0 g
n(CO₂)=0.250 mol
M(CO₂)=44.0 g/mol
m(CO₂)=0.250*44.0=11.0 g
