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.

An unknown compound is processed using elemental analysis and found to contain 117.4g of platinum 28.91 carbon and 33.71g nitrog

dlinn [17]

Answer:

1 mole of platinum

Explanation:

To obtain the number of mole(s) of platinum present, we need to determine the empirical formula for the compound.

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained as follow:

Platinum (Pt) = 117.4 g

Carbon (C) = 28.91 g

Nitrogen (N) = 33.71 g

Divide by their molar mass

Pt = 117.4 / 195 = 0.602

C = 28.91 / 12 = 2.409

N = 33.71 / 14 = 2.408

Divide by the smallest

Pt = 0.602 / 0.602 = 1

C = 2.409 / 0.602 = 4

N = 2.408 / 0.602 = 4

The empirical formula for the compound is PtC₄N₄ => Pt(CN)₄

From the formula of the compound (i.e Pt(CN)₄), we can see clearly that the compound contains 1 mole of platinum.

The metabolic oxidation of glucose, C6H12O6, in our bodies produces CO2, which is expelled from our lungs as a gas.

enot [183]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{21.6 L}}$

Explanation:

We must do the conversions

mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of CO₂ ⟶ volume of CO₂

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ: 180.16

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ⟶ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

m/g: 24.5

(a) Moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

$\text{Moles of C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} = \text{24.5 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}{\text{180.16 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}\\\\= \text{0.1360 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}$

(b) Moles of CO₂

$\text{Moles of CO}_{2} =\text{0.1360 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol CO}_{2}}{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}} = \text{0.8159 mol CO}_{2}$

(c) Volume of CO₂

We can use the Ideal Gas Law.

pV = nRT

Data:

p = 0.960 atm

n = 0.8159 mol

T = 37 °C

(i) Convert the temperature to kelvins

T = (37 + 273.15) K= 310.15 K

(ii) Calculate the volume

$\begin{array}{rcl}pV &=& nRT\\\text{0.960 atm} \times V & = & \text{0.8159 mol} \times \text{0.082 06 L}\cdot\text{atm}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1} \times \text{310.15 K}\\0.960V & = & \text{20.77 L}\\V & = & \textbf{21.6 L} \\\end{array}\\\text{The volume of carbon dioxide is $\large \boxed{\textbf{21.6 L}}$}$

A green powder was placed into a beaker of water. After it was stirred

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

A solution was NOT formed.

Explanation:

For a solution to be formed, the green powder would need to dissolve in the water to form a homogenous mixture. But since the water was cloudy and had lumps of the green powder, it means that the powder did not dissolve, but instead remained insoluble.
