Answer:

The concentration of the resulting solution in parts per million is 177.97

Explanation:

Parts per million (ppm), is a unit of measure for concentration that refers to the number of units of the substance per million units of the set.

The concentration in parts per million expressed in mass / mass is calculated by dividing the mass of the solute (ms) by the mass of the solution (md, sum of the mass of the solute and the mass of the solvent), both expressed in the same unit and multiplied by 10⁶ (1 million).

$ppm=\frac{ms}{md} *10^{6}$

So, being:

ms: 0.089 grams of KI

md: 0.089 grams of KI + 500 grams of H₂O= 500.089 grams

Replacing:

$ppm=\frac{0.089 grams}{500.089 grams}*10^{6}$

ppm= 177.97

<u><em>The concentration of the resulting solution in parts per million is 177.97</em></u>

nignag [31]

1) Radioactive decay is the spontaneous decomposition of the unstable nucleus of an atom.

2) The emission of a particle or a photon.

For example, alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus).

3) The result is usually more stable element with smaller atomic number.

For example, in alpha decay atom transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four.

For example nuclear fission is radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts and huge amount of energy is released.

Answer: a: reactants Na-2 Cl-2

Products: Na-2 Cl-2;

b: reactants P-1 Cl-13 H-6 Products P-1 H-6 Cl-13

c: reactants P-4 H-12 O-16

Products H-12 P-4 O-16

Explanation: since these equations are balanced the atoms on of element on the reactants side will be same as the atoms of the same element of the product side

A chamber with a fixed volume is shown above. The temperature of the gas inside the chamber before heating is 25.2 C and it’s pr

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial temperature T₁ = 25.2°C = 25.2 + 273 = 298.2K

Initial pressure = P₁ = 0.6atm

Final temperature = 72.4°C = 72.4 + 273 = 345.4K

Unknown:

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use an adaption of the combined gas law where the volume gas is fixed. This simplification results into:

$\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }$

where P and T are temperatures, 1 and 2 are initial and final temperatures.

Input the parameters and solve;

$\frac{0.6}{298.2} = \frac{P_{2} }{345.4}$

P₂ = 0.7atm
