When the equation 

Chemistry

Answer:

The least whole number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6

Explanation:

The chemical equation above is the reaction between calcium orthophosphate and nitric acid.

To balance a chemical equation, we have to consider law of conservation of matter which states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed.

What this law implies is that, whatever we have at the reactant side must be equal to whatever is obtainable at the product side.

The above equation is

Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + HNO₃ → Ca(NO₃)₂ + H₃PO₄

To balance the equation, we'll have to check the number of atoms at each side and possibly balance the equation with the number of moles.

The balanced equation is

Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6HNO₃ → 3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2H₃PO₄

From the balanced equation above, we can see that the number of calcium (Ca), Phosphorus (P), Oxygen(O), Nitrogen(N) and hydrogen (H) are balanced at both sides of the equation.

The least number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6

What is the pH of a 1.9 M solution of HClO4?
Sliva [168]
The compound HClO4, when placed in water, will dissociate into the ions, H+ and ClO4-. Therefore, the 2.0 M solution will also form 2.0 M H+. The pH is calculated through the equation,
pH = -log[H+]
Substituting,
pH = -log[2] = -0.3
Thus, the pH of the solution is -0.3.

1. Which list of nuclear emissions is arranged in order from the least penetrating power to
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

A) alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray

Explanation:

Alpha beta and gamma radiations are the examples of ionizing radiations. When an atom is an excited state and having high energy, the atom is in unstable state. The excess of energy is released by the atom to get the stability. The released energy is in the form of radiations which may include alpha, beta, gamma, X-ray etc.

Properties of alpha radiation:  

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴  + energy

Beta radiations:  

The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.

They can travel in air in few meter distance.

These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.

The sheet of aluminum is used to block the beta radiation

⁴₆C → ¹⁴₇N + ⁰₋₁e

The beta radiations are emitted in this reaction. The one electron is ejected and neutron is converted into proton.  

Gamma radiations:

Gamma radiations are high energy radiations having no mass.

These radiations are travel at the speed of light.

Gamma radiations can penetrate into the many materials.

These radiations are also used to treat the cancer.

Lead is used for the protection  against gamma radiations because of its high molecular density.

The lead apron are used by the person when treated with gamma radiations.

Lead shields are also used in the wall, windows and doors of the room where gamma radiations are treated, in-order to protect the surroundings.
