Nuclear reaction: ¹¹C → ¹¹B + e⁺(positron) + ve(electron neutrino).
Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.
There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino and in beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.

Excess magnesium reacts with 165.0 grams of hydrochloric acid in a single displacement reaction.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The volume of hydrogen gas produced will be approximately 50.7 liters under STP.

Explanation:

Relative atomic mass data from a modern periodic table:

H: 1.008;
Cl: 35.45.

Magnesium is a reactive metal. It reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce

Hydrogen gas $\rm H_2$ , and
Magnesium chloride, which is a salt.

The chemical equation will be something like

$\rm ?\;Mg\;(s) + ?\;HCl \;(aq)\to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ [\text{Formula of the Salt}]$ ,

where the coefficients and the formula of the salt are to be found.

To determine the number of moles of $\rm H_2$ that will be produced, first find the formula of the salt, magnesium chloride.

Magnesium is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state of magnesium in compounds tends to be +2.

On the other hand, the charge on each chloride ion is -1. Each magnesium ion needs to pair up with two chloride ions for the charge to balance in the salt, magnesium chloride. The formula for the salt will be $\rm MgCl_2$ .

$\rm ?\;Mg\;(s) + ?\;HCl\;(aq) \to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ ?\;MgCl_2\;(aq)$ .

Balance the equation. $\rm MgCl_2$ contains the largest number of atoms among all species in this reaction. Start by setting its coefficient to 1.

$\rm ?\;Mg\;(s) + ?\;HCl\;(aq) \to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ {\bf 1\;MgCl_2}\;(aq)$ .

The number of $\rm Mg$ and $\rm Cl$ atoms shall be the same on both sides. Therefore

$\rm {\bf 1\;Mg}\;(s) + {\bf 2\;HCl}\;(aq) \to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ {1\;\underset{\wedge}{Mg}\underset{\wedge}{Cl_2}}\;(aq)$ .

The number of $\rm H$ atoms shall also conserve. Hence the equation:

$\rm {1\;Mg}\;(s) + {2\;\underset{\wedge}{H}Cl}\;(aq) \to {\bf 1\;H_2 \;(g)}+ {1\;MgCl_2}\;(aq)$ .

How many moles of HCl are available?

$M(\rm HCl) = 1.008 + 35.45 = 36.458\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\displaystyle n({\rm HCl}) = \frac{m(\text{HCl})}{M(\text{HCl})} = \rm \frac{165.0\;g}{36.458\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 4.52576\;mol$ .

How many moles of Hydrogen gas will be produced?

Refer to the balanced chemical equation, the coefficient in front of $\rm HCl$ is 2 while the coefficient in front of $\rm H_2$ is 1. In other words, it will take two moles of $\rm HCl$ to produce one mole of $\rm H_2$ . $\rm 4.52576\;mol$ of $\rm HCl$ will produce only one half as much $\rm H_2$ .

Alternatively, consider the ratio between the coefficient in front of $\rm H_2$ and $\rm HCl$ is:

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\text{H}_2)}{n(\text{HCl})} = \frac{1}{2}$ .

$\displaystyle n(\text{H}_2) = n(\text{HCl})\cdot \frac{n(\text{H}_2)}{n(\text{HCl})} = \frac{1}{2}\;n(\text{HCl}) = \rm \frac{1}{2}\times 4.52576\;mol = 2.26288\;mol$ .

What will be the volume of that many hydrogen gas?

One mole of an ideal gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters under STP (where the pressure is 1 atm.) On certain textbook where STP is defined as $\rm 1.00\times 10^{5}\;Pa$ , that volume will be 22.7 liters.

$V(\text{H}_2) = \rm 2.26288\;mol\times 22.4\;L\cdot mol^{-1} = 50.69\; L$ , or

$V(\text{H}_2) = \rm 2.26288\;mol\times 22.7\;L\cdot mol^{-1} = 51.37\; L$ .

The value "165.0 grams" from the question comes with four significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that in calculations. Round the final result to four significant figures.

A pharmacist has calculated that a patient requires 30 mmol of phosphate and 80 meq of potassium to be added to the pn. how many

aalyn [17]

Since potassium and phosphate is what we are to find for and they are both found in the potassium phosphate solution, therefore we solve for this one first on the basis of the phosphate.

The formula for finding the volume given the concentration and number of moles is:

Volume = number of moles / concentration in Molarity

Volume potassium phosphate required = 30 mmol phosphate / (3 mmol / mL)

Volume potassium phosphate required = 10 mL

This would also contain potassium in amounts of:

Amount of potassium in potassium phosphate = 10 mL (4.4 meg / mL)

Amount of potassium in potassium phosphate = 44 meg

Therefore the potassium chloride required is:

Volume of potassium chloride = (80 meg – 44 meg) / (2 meg / mL)

Volume of potassium chloride = 72 mL

How many atoms of each element are in NaCI? |___| sodium |___| chlorine

gogolik [260]

Answer:

There are 2 atoms in NaCl. This is because there is 1 atom of Na (sodium) and 1 atom of Cl (chlorine) in each NaCl molecule. Elements by themselves do not have a "number of atoms"- if you're talking about the atomic number, it's the number of protons (or electrons in a neutral atom) of an element.

1. If 22.5 L of nitrogen at 734 mm Hg are compressed to 702 mm Hg at constant

Alika [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is V2 = 23.52 l

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = V1 = 22.5 l

Pressure 1 = P1 = 734 mmHg

Volume 2 = V2 = ?

Pressure 2 = 702 mmHg

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law.

P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

V2 = P1V1 / P2

-Substitution

V2 = (734 x 22.5) / 702

-Simplification

V2 = 16515 / 702

-Result

V2 = 23.52 l

-Conclusion

If we diminish the pressure, the volume will be higher.
