What similarities are there between Beta Radiation and Alpha Radiation

Chemistry
1 answer:
joja [24]3 years ago
5 0

The largest particle, Alpha, has the least penetrative power. Positive charge is carried by alpha particles. Two neutrons and two protons are bound together to form an alpha particle. The helium-4 nucleus was later identified as the alpha particle. Among the three types of radioactive emissions, alpha particles have the most mass. An alpha particle has approximately 8000 times the mass of a beta particle. The penetrative power of an alpha particle is reduced due to its large size.

Beta particles are negative-charged high-energy electrons or positrons. Beta particles have a higher penetrative power than alpha particles due to their smaller size.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest if it's correct?

Please help me find the final answer
dlinn [17]

Answer:

5. The mass of Na₂CO₃, that will produce 5 g of CO₂ is approximately 12.04 grams of Na₂CO₃

6. The mass of nitrogen gas (N₂) that will react completely with 150 g of hydrogen (H₂) in the production of NH₃ is 693.\overline{3168} grams of N₂

Explanation:

5. The given equation for the formation of carbon dioxide (CO₂) from sodium bicarbonate (Na₂CO₃)  is presented as follows;

(Na₂CO₃) + 2HCl → 2NaCl + CO₂ + H₂O

One mole (105.99 g) of Na₂CO₃ produces 1 mole (44.01 g) of CO₂

The mass, 'x' g of Na₂CO₃, that will produce 5 g of CO₂ is given by the law of definite proportions as follows;

\dfrac{x \ g}{105.99 \ g} = \dfrac{5 \ g}{44.01 \ g}

\therefore {x \ g} = \dfrac{5 \ g}{44.01 \ g} \times 105.99 \ g \approx 12.04 \ g

The mass of Na₂CO₃, that will produce 5 g of CO₂, x ≈ 12.04 g

6. The chemical equation for the reaction is presented as follows;

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

Therefore, one mole (28.01 g) of nitrogen gas, (N₂), reacts with three moles (3 × 2.02 g) of hydrogen gas (H₂) to produce 2 moles of ammonia (NH₃)

The mass 'x' grams of nitrogen gas (N₂) that will react completely with150 g of hydrogen (H₂) in the production of NH₃ is given as follows;

\dfrac{x \ g}{28 .01 \ g} = \dfrac{150 \ g}{3 \times 2.02 \ g} = \dfrac{150 \ g}{6.06 \ g}

\therefore \ x \ g= \dfrac{150 \ g}{6.06 \ g} \times 28.01 \ g = 693.\overline {3168} \ g

The mass of nitrogen gas (N₂) that will react completely with 150 g of hydrogen (H₂) in the production of NH₃, x = 693.\overline{3168} grams
