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:

The average mass of iron to be is 54.76 amu.

Explanation:

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$

Mass of Fe-54 isotope = 53.9396 amu

Percentage abundance of Fe-54 = 5.845%

Fractional abundance of Fe-54 = 0.05845

Mass of Fe-56 isotope = 55.9349 amu

Percentage abundance of Fe-56 = 91.754 %

Fractional abundance of Fe-56= 0.91754

Mass of Fe-57 isotope = 56.9354 amu

Percentage abundance of Fe-57 = 2.119%

Fractional abundance of Fe-57 = 0.002119

Mass of Fe-58 isotope = 57.9333 amu

Percentage abundance of Fe-58 = 0.282%

Fractional abundance of Fe-58 = 0.00282

Average atomic mass of iron :

$=53.9396 amu\times 0.05845+55.9349 amu\times 0.91754 +56.9354 amu\times 0.002119 + 57.9333 amu\times 0.00282=54.76 amu$

The average mass of iron to be is 54.76 amu.

Octane has a density of 0.692 g/ml at 20oc. how many grams of o2 are required to burn 15.0 gal of c8h18 (the average capacity of

Hatshy [7]

Octane has a density of 0.692 g/ml at 20°C. Grams of O₂ required to burn 15.0 gal of C₈H₁₈ is 1.37868×10⁵g.

Octane is a hydrocarbon having eight carbon atoms and have single bonds only.

Given,

Density of octane = 0.692g/ml

Temperature = 20°C = 293K

Amount of Octane present = 15gal

Molar mass of octane = 114g

We know that,

1 gal = 3.78541L = 3785.4ml

Hence, 15 gal = 56781 ml

Now let's calculate the Mass of octane required:

Mass of octane = 0.692 x 56781

Mass of octane = 39292.45 g

According to the given equation,

C₈H₁₈ + 12.5O₂ ---------> 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

Also, 114g of octane needs-------> 400g of oxygen

39292.45g of octane needs ---------> 137868.24g of oxygen

Hence, oxygen needed to burn octane is 1.37868×10⁵g
