Based on table N of the reference tables what is the number of hours required for 42k (potassium -42) to undergo three half-life

periods
Chemistry

3 0

The number of hours required : 37.2 hours

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

⁴²K (potassium -42)

Required

The number of hours

Solution

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

Based on Table N(attached), the half-life for ⁴²K is 12.4 hours, which means half of a sample of ⁴²K will decay in 12.4 hours

For three half-life periods :

\tt 3\times 12.4=37.2~hours

E. H2CrO4 + Sr(OH)2 →
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is SrCrO₄ +  H₂O

Explanation:

Data

  H₂CrO₄  +  Sr(OH)₂  ⇒  

We can notice that this is a Redox reaction or neutralization reaction because the reactants are an acid (H₂CrO₄) and a base (Sr(OH)₂). These reactions are also called double displacement reactions.

In these kind of reactions the products are always a binary or ternary salt and water.

Then, for this reaction,

           H₂CrO₄  +  Sr(OH)₂  ⇒   SrCrO₄ +  H₂O

How many grams of water can be produce from the complete reaction of excess nitric acid and 33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide
Mariulka [41]

Mass of water produced : 0.146 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide

Required

mass of water

Solution

Reaction

HNO₃ (aq) + LiOH (aq) → H₂O (l) + LiNO₃ (aq)

mol LiOH :

= M x V

= 0.245 x 33.2 ml

= 8.134 mmol

From the equation, the mol ratio of HNO₃ : H₂O = 1 : 1, so mol H₂O = 8.134 mmol

mass H₂O :

= mol x MW

= 8.134 x 10⁻³ mol x 18 g/mol

= 0.146 g

How is electronegativity related to covalent bonding?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Atoms must have similar electronegativities in order to share electrons in a covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bonding is one of the bondings that occurs between the atoms of elements. It is the bonding in which atoms share their valence electrons with one another. However, the ELECTRONEGATIVITY, which is the ability of an atom to be attracted to electrons play a major role in the formation of covalent bonds.

When atoms of different electronegativities combine, the more electronegative atom pulls more electrons towards itself, hence, an IONIC bond is formed. However, when the electronegativities of the atoms are similar, the sharing of their electrons becomes stronger. Hence, ATOMS MUST HAVE SIMILAR ELECTRONEGATIVITIES in order to share electrons in a covalent bond.
