Answer:

A combustion reaction is a reaction that involves a substance and oxygen reacts at high temperature and produces light energy and thermal energy and generate light and heat.

If a flame is in a sealed container it will go out due to the absence of oxygen to perform a combustion reaction that requires oxygen to produce heat and light. A flame is the result of a combustion reaction which also requires the oxygen to keep on burning.

How many moles are equal to 7.62 x 1025 molecules lithium hydroxide

ycow [4]

No of moles:-

$\\ \tt\longmapsto \dfrac{No\:of\:atoms}{Avagadro's\; number}$

$\\ \tt\longmapsto \dfrac{7.62(10^{25})}{6.022(10^{23})}$

$\\ \tt\longmapsto 126.5mol$

Describe the smell of Na+ and H+

KIM [24]

Answer:

Sodium ion ( Na+) is known to have no smell at all but however appears salty which is the reason why the compound Sodium Chloride has the same type of taste.

Hydrogen ions ( H+) are known to have no taste which implies it being tasteless. It is also important to note that it has no smell too when perceived (odorless).

Consider a 100-gram sample of radioactive cobalt-60.

svetlana [45]

It will take 5.2 years to decay.

The half life of cobalt-60 is 5.2 years. The half life is the time taken for the mass of the substance to decrease by a half.

here, the amount of remaining substance is 50%,

so, $(\frac{1}{2} )^{n} = 0.5$

n. log (0.5) = log (0.5)

n = 1

So it would take 1 half lives to decay this much, which is 1 x 5.2 which is 5.2 years.

what do you mean by radioactive decay ?

The process through which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy via radiation is known as radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration. A material that has unstable nuclei is considered as radioactive.
