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.

Answer:

2 moles NH3 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of N2 reacted with 3 moles of H2 to produce 2 moles of NH3.

Thus, we can say that:

1 mole of N2 = 3 moles of H2

1 mole of N2 = 2 moles of NH3

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Thus, considering the options given above, the right answers to the question are:

2 moles NH3 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Write the balanced NET IONIC equation for the reaction that occurs when perchloric acid and calcium hypochlorite are combined. I

Elanso [62]

Answer:

$H^+(aq)+(ClO)^-(aq)\rightarrow HClO{(aq)}$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since perchloric acid is HClO4 and is a strong acid and calcium hypochlorite is Ca(ClO)2, the undergoing molecular chemical reaction turns out:

$2HClO_4{(aq)}+Ca(ClO)_2{(aq)}\rightarrow 2HClO{(aq)}+Ca(ClO_4)_2{(aq)}$

Thus, since the resulting hypochlorous acid is weak, it does not fully ionize, so it remains unionized, however, we can write the ions for the other species:

$2H^++2(ClO_4)^-+Ca^{2+}+2(ClO)^-\rightarrow 2HClO{(aq)}+Ca^{2+}+2(ClO_4)^-$
