Radioactivity in our world <span>b. is as old as the universe.
</span><span>Radioactive atom spontaneously emits energetic particles or waves, while decays on lighter nuclei (atoms with smaller atomic mass). Radioactivity is used to calculate how old is Earth and living things, for that purpose isotope of carbon is used.</span>

The town of Natrium, West Virginia, derives its name from the sodium produced in the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride (NaC
Alona [7]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           Na^{+} + e^{-} \rightarrow Na(s)

Hence, moles of Na = moles of electron used

Therefore, calculate the number of moles of sodium as follows.

       No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                             = \frac{4500 g}{23 g/mol}    (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

                             = 195.65 mol

As,     Q = n \times F       where F = Faraday's constant

              = 195.65 mol \times 96500 C

              = 1.88 \times 10^{7} mol C

Relation between electrical energy and Q is as follows.

               E = Q \times V

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula and then calculate the value of electricity as follows.

              E = Q \times V

                 = 1.88 \times 10^{7} \times 5

                 = 9.4 \times 10^{7} J

As 1 J = 2.77 \times 10^{-7} kWh

Hence,      \frac{9.4 \times 10^{7}}{2.77 \times 10^{-7}} kWh

                = 3.39 kWh

Thus, we can conclude that 3.39 kilowatt-hours of electricity is required in the given situation.

Determining the composition of stars is one way that light emission has been used to determine the chemical composition of an ob
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

These instrument works on the analysis of the emisson spectral of light received from the star in this way.

Think of a steel knife in your kitchen. Initially, it has this shiny silver colour that typifies it. When the knife is placed on a hot plate, it becomes hotter and begins to go red as the heating continues. If we stop the heating and pour cold water on it, the red dissapears and our knife is back to itself, although the silvery shine would be lost. This is simply how the atomic absorption spectroscopy works. When you see the hot knife you can say a couple of things about it. Different metals have their various melting point. We can compare the temperature at which our knife will melt with a standard melting point scale to know the type of metal it is made of.

In atomic absorption spectroscopy, an atom gains energy and it becomes excited. Every atom is known to have a peculair amount of absorbant energy that cause them to excite. The more the particles in the atom, the more the energy required. When we analyse the absorbent energy of the atom, it differs from other atoms and we truly identify such an atom even if we don't know it. Most times, the energy is given off as light.
