How does the number of subatomic particles change as the carbon isotope decays?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

C decays by a process called beta decay. During this process, an atom of 14C decays into an atom of 14N, during which one of the neutrons in the carbon atom becomes a proton. This increases the number of protons in the atom by one, creating a nitrogen atom rather than a carbon atom.

What will be the the net ionic equations for the following ones:- a) AgNO3 + KCl b) Ni(NO3)2 + Na2S c) CaCl2 + Na2CO3. 2) Write
Zielflug [23.3K]
In a) the final equation is AgNO3 + KCl = AgCl + KNO3, b) Ni(NO3)2 + Na2S = 2NaNO3 + NiS; c) CaCl2 + Na2CO3 = 2 NaCl + CaCO3. In 2) The total net equation is Ca 2+ + CO32- = CaCO3 (s).

In 36 hours the amount of radioactive substance has reduced from 80 mg to 10 mg. What is the half-life of this isotope?
rusak2 [61]
Half-life refers to the time taken for half of the atoms in a radioactive substance to decay. Therefore in 1 half-life the 80 mg of substance will reduce to 40 mg. In another half-life it will reduce from 40 mg to 20 mg, then in a third half-life from 20 mg to 10 mg. Therefore the half-life is equal to the total time taken to decay from 80 mg to 10 mg divided by 3:
t(1/2) = 36 hours / 3 = 12 hours.

When 91.5 g of isopropyl alcohol which has an empirical formula of C3H8O is burned in excess oxygen gas, how many grams of H2O a
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

109.7178g of H2O

Explanation:

First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2C3H8O + 9O2 —> 6CO2 + 8H2O

Next we will calculate the molar mass and masses of C3H8O and H20. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of C3H8O = (3x12.011) + (8x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 36.033 + 8.06352 + 15.9994 = 60.09592g/mol.

Mass of C3H8O from the balanced equation = 2 x 60.09592 = 120.19184g

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 2.01588 + 15.9994 = 18.01528g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 8 x 18.01528 = 144.12224g

From the equation,

120.19184g of C3H8O produced 144.12224g of H20.

Therefore, 91.5g of C3H8O will produce = (91.5 x 144.12224) /120.19184 = 109.7178g of H2O

What would the molecular formula be if lithium and sulfur reacted to form a neutral compound?
skad [1K]

Answer:

D, Li2S

Explanation:

This is because Lithium, which is in group IA of the periodic table, has a charge of +1. Sulfur will have a charge of -2 because it is in group 6A in the periodic table, which means to balance these out, there needs to be 2 lithium ions which would result in a charge of +2. With Lithium now having a charge of +2 due to having two atoms in the compound, and sulfur already having a charge of -2 as one atom, these two cancel out meaning the compound is neutral.
