HELP PLEASE I DONT KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS IM CONFUSED

Chemistry
1 answer:
Zielflug [23.3K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

In an alpha emission, an alpha particle is ejected from a large nucleus. An alpha particle is simply a helium nucleus (atomic number is 2 and mass number is 4) so that means that the atomic number of the emitting nucleus decreases by 2 and its mass number decreases by 4.

Formula of a copper (II)sulfate hydrate lab
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Weigh the empty crucible, and then weigh into it between 2 g and 3 g of hydrated copper(II) sulphate. Record all weighings accurate to the nearest 0.01 g.

Support the crucible securely in the pipe-clay triangle on the tripod over the Bunsen burner.

Heat the crucible and contents, gently at first, over a medium Bunsen flame, so that the water of crystallisation is driven off steadily. The blue colour of the hydrated compound should gradually fade to the greyish-white of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate. Avoid over-heating, which may cause further decomposition, and stop heating immediately if the colour starts to blacken. If over-heated, toxic or corrosive fumes may be evolved. A total heating time of about 10 minutes should be enough.

Allow the crucible and contents to cool. The tongs may be used to move the hot crucible from the hot pipe-clay triangle onto the heat resistant mat where it should cool more rapidly.

Re-weigh the crucible and contents once cold.

Calculation:

Calculate the molar masses of H2O and CuSO4 (Relative atomic masses: H=1, O=16, S=32, Cu=64)

Calculate the mass of water driven off, and the mass of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate formed in your experiment

Calculate the number of moles of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate formed

Calculate the number of moles of water driven off

Calculate how many moles of water would have been driven off if 1 mole of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate had been formed

Write down the formula for hydrated copper(II) sulfate.

Calculate the standard potential for the following galvanic cell: Fe(s) | Fe2+(aq) || Ag+(aq) | Ag(s) which has the overall bala
Nataly [62]

Answer:

E° = 1.24 V

Explanation:

Let's consider the following galvanic cell: Fe(s) | Fe²⁺(aq) || Ag⁺(aq) | Ag(s)

According to this notation, Fe is in the anode (where oxidation occurs) and Ag is in the cathode (where reduction occurs). The corresponding half-reactions are:

Anode: Fe(s) ⇒ Fe²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻

Cathode: Ag⁺(aq) + 1 e⁻ ⇒ Ag(s)

The standard cell potential (E°) is the difference between the standard reduction potential of the cathode and the standard reduction potential of the anode.

E° = E°red, cat - E°red, an

E° = 0.80 V - (-0.44 V) = 1.24 V

What happens to iron when it melts?
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

B. It undergoes a physical change.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since we know that chemical changes lead to the formation of new atoms and/or compounds due to the bonds rearrangement of the initial substances and the physical changes occur without changing the composition of the initial substances, we can infer that, since melting is a process that changes the phase of matter from solid to liquid without changing the identity of the initial substance, the answer to this question would be B. It undergoes a physical change. because the other options describe chemical changes.

Best regards!

Scientists often work on projects for a long time and fail to see sources of error in their research. Which process allows an ou
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The correct approach is Option B (Peer Review).

Explanation:

  • Rather made reference to someone as a scientific peer-review, it encourages the specialist who has not been essential to the study team to analyze the study objectively and pointed out everyone's mistakes. It serves as major self-regulation for scholars and aims to make the publishing process somewhat credible. Hence, the solution to this issue is Peer Examination.
  • Funding organizations rarely have the capabilities to recognize out mistakes, whereas definitive analysis is a method of study that helps to make a definitive statement. The gathering of data is simply a process of scientific study.

Other approaches do not apply to the example mentioned. Although the one mentioned is right.
