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.

Which two subatomic particles have the greatest mass?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

PROTON AND NEUTRON

Explanation:

  • The mass of proton is : 1.67*10^{-27}kg

A proton is one of the main particles that make up the atom . The other two particles are neutron and electron. Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom.This is a tiny , dense region at the centre of the atom. Protons have a positive charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit ( amu ) , which is about 1.67*10^{-27}kg. Together with neutrons , they make up virtually all of the mass of an atom.

  • The  mass of neutron is also approximately: 1.67*10^{-27}kg but a little more than that .

Atoms of all elements - except Hydrogen , have neutrons in their nucleus . Unlike protons and electrons , these have no charge - they are electrically neutral . The mass of a neutron is slightly greater than the mass of a proton but not very significant

What happens to the air in the colloid when ice cream melts
Contact [7]

The colloid formed by ice cream remains stable only at cold temperatures. When ice cream is warmed above freezing, its dispersed particles absorb energy and begin to move faster. When the fast-moving particles collide, they sometimes stick together.

Use the IUPAC nomenclature rules to give the name for Mg(ClO4)2
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Magnesium Perchlorate

Explanation:

IUPAC Rules to name ternary salts of chlorine

1.- Ternary salts use prefixes and suffixes it depends on the number of oxygens they have.

Example

Metal + Chlorine + 1 oxygen =  Name of the metal + hipo chlor + ite

Metal + Chlorine + 2 oxygens = Name of the metal + chlor + ite

Metal + Chlorine + 3 oxygens = Name of the metal + chlor + ate

Metal + Chlorine + 4 oxygens = Name of the metal + per + chlor + ate

For this compound the name is  Magnesium Perchlorate.

If you reacted 183 grams of copper sulfate with excess iron, what mass of copper would you expect to make? You may need to balan
Nezavi [6.7K]

The question does not provide the equation

Answer:-

72.89 grams

Explanation:-

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

CuSO4 + Fe --> FeSO4 + Cu

Molecular weight of CuSO4 = 63.55 x 1 + 32 x 1 + 16 x 4

= 159.55 gram

Atomic weight of Cu = 63.55 gram.

According to the balanced chemical equation

1 CuSO4 gives 1 Cu

∴159.55 gram of CuSO4 would give 63.55 gram of Cu.

183 gram of CuSO4 would give 63.55 x 183 / 159.55

= 72.89 grams of Cu
