Answer:

Superscript 239 subscript 94 upper P u

(plutonium-239)

Explanation:

In alpha decay, the element subtracts 4 from its mass number and subtracts 2 from its atomic number.

So if we end with Uranium-235, which has an atomic number of 92:

235+4 = 239

92+2 = 94

Element 94 is Pu, plutonium, and its mass could very well be 239 if it's an isotope. So the answer is Superscript 239 subscript 94 upper P u.

Two different compounds are formed by the elements nitrogen and oxygen. The first compound, compound P1, contains 64.17% by mass
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we must know the kind of compounds we are dealing with.

For the first compound, P1 and second compound P2:

                                N                       O                         N                     O

Mass percent       64.17                 35.73                  47.23               52.79

Atomic mass          14                      16                         14                    16

Number of

moles            64.17/14            35.73/16            47.23/14    52.79/16      

                            4.58                  2.23                     3.37                  3.30

Simplest

ratio                 4.58/2.23            2.23/2.23             3.37/3.30         3.3/3.3

                              2                           1                             1                        1

                             

P1 compound is N₂O

P2 compound is NO

These are the compounds,

   In N₂O = 28:16

          NO = 14:16

This is the ratio of nitrogen to a fixed mass of oxygen for the two compounds.

There are two different compounds of sulfur and fluorine.
Sedaia [141]
<span>1.18 x 3 = 3.55 </span>
find  ratio of F to F in each compound
.   according to law of multiple proportions  that the masses of one element which combine with a fixed mass of the second element are in a ratio of whole numbers.
now  F is  "one element" and S has  "fixed mass",
the ratio of F6 to Fx = 3:1 
<span>thats why  x= 2
there is less F in SFx
  the ratio is 3:1.
 dividing 6 by 3 and you get 2</span>

A cylinder with a movable piston originally has a volume of 2805 mL and is filled with nitrogen to a pressure of 4.00
Sergio039 [100]

This problem is providing the initial volume and pressure of nitrogen in a piston-cylinder system and asks for the final pressure it will have when the volume increases. At the end, the answer turns out to be 2.90 atm.

<h3>Boyle's law</h3>

In chemistry, gas laws are used so as to understand the volume-pressure-temperature-moles behavior in ideal gases and relate different pairs of variables.

In this case, we focus on the Boyle's law as an inversely proportional relationship between both pressure and volume at constant both temperature and moles:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Thus, we solve for the final pressure by dividing both sides by V2:

P_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}

Hence, we plug in both the initial pressure and volume and final volume in order to calculate the final pressure:

P_2=\frac{2805mL*4.00atm}{3864mL}\\ \\P_2=2.90atm
