Travka [436]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In 1889, Ernest Rutherford recognized and named two modes of radioactive decay, showing the occurrence of both processes in a decaying sample of natural uranium and its daughters. Rutherford named these types of radiation based on their penetrating power: heavier alpha and lighter beta radiation. Gamma rays, a third type of radiation, were discovered by P. Villard in 1900 but weren't recognized as electromagnetic radiation until 1914. Since gamma radiation is only the discharge of a high-energy photon from an over-excited nucleus, it does not change the identity of the atom from which it originates and therefore will not be discussed in depth here.

Because nuclear reactions involve the breaking of very powerful intra nuclear bonds, massive amounts of energy can be released. At such high energy levels, the matter can be converted directly to energy according to Einstein's famous Mass-Energy relationship E = mc2. The sum of mass and energy are conserved in nuclear decay. The free energy of any spontaneous reaction must be negative according to thermodynamics (ΔG < 0), and ΔG is essentially equal to the energy change ΔE of nuclear reactions because ΔE is so massive.

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

pH reducing agent for acidic soils

Explanation:

Gypsum is not used to reduce soil pH because it will displace the soil H+ but there's no means of extracting the H from the soil. So the pH of the soil remains the same.

When two moles of ethane react completely with oxygen, how many moles of carbon dioxide will be produced?A. 2.B. 4.C. 8.D. Unkno
babymother [125]

Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

As any reaction of combustion, the O₂ is a reactant and the products are CO₂ and H₂O. Combustion reaction for ethane is:

2C₂H₆  +  7O₂   →   4CO₂  +  6H₂O

So 2 moles of ethane react with 7 moles of oxygen to make 4 moles of dioxide and 6 moles of water.

Then 2 moles of ethane will produce 4 moles of CO₂

A 25.0 g bold made of an alloy absorbed 250 J of heat as its temperature changed from 25.0 °C to 78.0 °C. What is the specific h
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Specific heat of alloy = 0.2 j/ g.°C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Given data:

Mass of bold = 25 g

Heat absorbed = 250 J

Initial Temperature = 25°C

Final temperature = 78°C

Specific heat of alloy = ?

Solution:

Change in temperature:

ΔT = 78°C - 25°C

ΔT = 53°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

Q = m.c. ΔT

250 j = 25 g × c ×53°C

250 j = 1325 g.°C × c

250 j / 1325 g.°C = c

c = 0.2 j/ g.°C
