Answer:
37S
Explanation:
Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of particles and / or electromagnetic radiation by unstable atomic nuclei leading to their disintegration.
We have two main types of radioactivity: radioactive decay and artificial transmutation.
In radioactive decay ( natural radioactivity ), a naturally occurring radioactive element like Uranium-238 disintegrates or decays into more stable isotopes with the emission of particles and/or radiation.
23892U = 23490Th + 42He
Artificial transmutation is the collision of two particles where one particle captures the other used to bombard it. There is subsequent production of isotopes similar or different from the bombarded particle. Neutrons, alpha particles ( helium nucleus ), electrons, protons can be used to bombard elements.
147N + 42He = 178O + 11P
For the above question which is artificial transmutation, the reaction equation is
4018Ar + 10n = 3716S + 42He
So, the neutron capture by Argon-40 will produce a radioisotope Sulphur-37 with the emission of an alpha particle.
Answer:
atomic number
Explanation:
isotope is a family of an element with the same atomic number but different mass number.
Answer:
marine biology
coastal ecology
astronomy
meteorology
Explanation:
As a college student, to study oceanography one will have to take classes in the field of marine biology, coastal ecology, astronomy and meteorology.
An oceanographer is someone or a professional that studies the ocean in order have more scientific knowledge about them.
Oceanography is a merger of geology, biology, chemistry, physics as it pertains to the ocean.
- There is no need to study human anatomy to study oceanography.
- Marine biology and coastal ecology deals with study of life forms in their marine environment.
- Astronomy and meteorology helps to gain insight about the formation of the ocean and how weather relates to the ocean.
<u>Answer:</u> The molality of the solution is 0.1 m.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:
Where,
= Given mass of solute = 27.1 g
= Molar mass of solute = 27.1 g/mol
= Mass of solvent = 100 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the molality of the solution is 0.1 m.
