Answer:
516.24
Explanation:
The solved solution is in the attached document.
The daughter isotope : Radon-222 (Rn-222).
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an alpha decay
Required
The daughter nuclide
Solution
Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles ₀γ⁰
- positron particles ₁e⁰
- neutron ₀n¹
The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same
Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra
Alpha particles : ₂⁴He
So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴ , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4
The reaction :
₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn
Answer:
a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution.
b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.
e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.
Explanation:
<em>Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer?</em>
a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. TRUE. The conjugate base neutralizes the excess of hydrogen protons.
b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. TRUE.
c. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. FALSE. This is a basic buffer solution.
d. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. FALSE. The weak acid will react with the hydroxyl ions from the added base.
e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. TRUE. These hydrogen protons will form water.
f. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. FALSE. It will accept hydrogen protons.
Answer and Explanation:
The balanced chemical equations are as follows:
The chemical formula of oxalic is 
In the case when oxalic acts reacted with the water so here the oxalic acid eliminates one proton that leads to the development of mono acids
After that, the second step derives that when oxalic acid is in aqueous solution eliminates other proton so it represent the polyprotic acid
Now the chemical equations are as follows:
Elimination of one proton
Now the elimination of other proton
Answer:
Explanation:
Homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture are in the same proportion throughout any sample extracted from the mixture while an heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture differ in term of proportion when different samples of the mixture are extracted and compared.
For example, a sandy water will have some parts (usually the bottom) of the mixture with more sand than other parts of the mixture, hence, it (sandy water) is a heterogeneous mixture. While salty and ocean water has it's salt dissolved in the same proportion throughout the water in the mixture, hence salty and/or ocean water is a homogeneous mixture.
Sandy water can be separated by filtration (i.e using a filter paper to separate the sand from the water when the mixture is poured over a filter paper) while salty and ocean water can be separated by distillation (i.e boiling of the mixture so the water molecules can boil and move through a tube as gas or steam into another container where they are cooled and converted back to liquid or water while leaving the solid salt component of the mixture in the boiling tube).
