Is the following nuclear equation balanced? 23? Np →He+ 233 AM o yes o no

Chemistry
1 answer:
ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

No. Equation is not balanced and also incorrect because non of the Np isotopes undergoes such type of radioactive decay in which it produces isotopes of Am.

Explanation:

The correct and balanced nuclear equation is given below.

²³⁷₉₃Np   →  ⁴₂He + ²³³₉₁Pa

The balanced nuclear equation is given above. Np²³⁷ undergoes alpha decay and produce alpha particle and protactinium.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

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.

²³⁸₉₂U   →   ²³⁴₉₀Th  + ₂⁴He  + energy

Objects that are hotter will generally emit _____.
Ede4ka [16]
They emit b) more radiation compared to cooler objects.

This is because hotter objects have more kinetic energy (in order for the particles to vibrate- and so more infrared radiation circulates in its surroundings.)

Based on the following chemical equation how many hydrogen atoms are present in the products side?
OleMash [197]

The number of Hydrogen atoms = 6 atoms

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

N₂ + 3H₂ ⇒ 2NH₃

Required

The number of Hydrogen atoms

Solution

The reaction coefficient of a chemical equation shows the mole ratio of the reacting compound.

On a compound the reaction coefficient indicates the number of molecules

Whereas the subscript after the atom shows the number of atoms in that compound

Product from the reaction : 2NH₃

Number of H-atoms :

= 2 x 3

= 6 atoms

The titration of a 20.0-mLmL sample of an H2SO4H2SO4 solution of unknown concentration requires 22.87 mLmL of a 0.158 M KOHM KOH
kkurt [141]

Answer:

0.0905 M

Explanation:

Let's consider the neutralization reaction between H2SO4 and KOH.

H₂SO₄ + 2 KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2 H₂O

22.87 mL of 0.158 M KOH react. The reacting moles of KOH are:

0.02287 L × 0.158 mol/L = 3.61 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of H₂SO₄ to KOH is 1:2. The reacting moles of H₂SO₄ are 1/2 × 3.61 × 10⁻³ mol = 1.81 × 10⁻³ mol

1.81 × 10⁻³ moles of H₂SO₄ are in 20.0 mL. The molarity of H₂SO₄ is:

M = 1.81 × 10⁻³ mol / 0.0200 L = 0.0905 M

Changes in matter occur every day. There are two types of ways matter can be altered; physically and chemically. Physical changes do not change the composition of the matter while chemical changes occur when one or more substances turn into a completely new substance. Physical changes can be seen through an altering of the substances physical property. A substances physical property is observed and measured without changing the composition of the subject. Descriptive words that would help to identify a substance’s physical property include hard, soft, brittle, flexible, heavy, and light just to name a few. Let’s say you’re eating, throughout the day your stomach starts to growl that is what happens when your stomach is digesting your food. Digestion is an example of chemical change. Chemical change happens every day and more than half the time we don’t realize it whether it’s metal starting to rust, or our food starting to rot. Physical change can happen when your popsicle starts to melt, or your water starting starting to boil. These are examples of physical change.
