Explanation:

It is known that charge on xenon nucleus is q_{1} equal to +54e. And, charge on the proton is q_{2} equal to +e. So, radius of the nucleus is as follows.

            r = \frac{6.0}{2}

              = 3.0 fm

Let us assume that nucleus is a point charge. Hence, the distance between proton and nucleus will be as follows.

              d = r + 2.5

                 = (3.0 + 2.5) fm

                 = 5.5 fm

                 = 5.5 \times 10^{-15} m     (as 1 fm = 10^{-15})

Therefore, electrostatic repulsive force on proton is calculated as follows.

              F = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_{o}} \frac{q_{1}q_{2}}{d^{2}}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

           F = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_{o}} \frac{q_{1}q_{2}}{d^{2}}

              = (9 \times 10^{9}) \frac{54e \times e}{(5.5 \times 10^{-15})^{2}}

              = (9 \times 10^{9}) \frac{54 \times (1.6 \times 10^{-19})^{2}}{(5.5 \times 10^{-15})^{2}}

              = 411.2 N

or,           = 4.1 \times 10^{2} N

Thus, we ca conclude that 4.1 \times 10^{2} N is the electric force on a proton 2.5 fm from the surface of the nucleus.

choli [55]

Answer:

trigonal planar

Explanation:

The molecule SO3 is of the type AX3. The molecule is symmetrical and non polar.

There are three regions of electron density in the molecule. This corresponds to a trigonal planar geometry. This means that the three oxygen atoms are arranged at the corners of a triangle.  The bond angle is 120 degrees.

what is the specific heat of a substance if 300 j are required to raise the temperature of a 267-g sample by 12 degrees c
slava [35]

Answer : The specific heat of the substance is 0.0936 J/g °C

Explanation :

The amount of heat Q can be calculated using following formula.

Q = m \times C \times \bigtriangleup T

Where Q is the amount of heat required = 300 J

m is the mass of the substance = 267 g

ΔT is the change in temperature = 12°C

C is the specific heat of the substance.

We want to solve for C, so the equation for Q is modified as follows.

C = \frac{Q}{m \times \bigtriangleup T}

Let us plug in the values in above equation.

C = \frac{300J}{267g \times 12 C}

C = \frac{300J}{3204 g C}

C = 0.0936 J/g °C

The specific heat of the substance is 0.0936 J/g°C

kompoz [17]

Answer:

<u>Why is it important to keep the two sides of an equation balanced when solving?</u>

If two expressions are equal to each other, and you add the same value to both sides of the equation, the equation will remain equal. When you solve an equation, you find the value of the variable that makes the equation true.

<u>What other properties do we use to rewrite expressions and equations?</u>

Which of the following is the number of moles of solute that is dissolved in 1 liter of solution?
Komok [63]
I believe the correct answer is option B. Molarity is the <span>number of moles of solute that is dissolved in 1 liter of solution. It is another way of expressing concentration of a mixture especially for solutions. Percent by mass is grams solute per grams of solution. Percent by volume is liter solute per liter per solution.</span>
