Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one chemical element or isotope into another. In other words, atoms of one element can be changed into atoms of another element by transmutation.
Answer:
c. 20.0332 g to 20,0 g
Explanation:
A significant figure is each of the digits of a number that are used to express it to the required degree of accuracy, starting from the first non-zero digit, with the exception of the trailing zeros.
<em>Which of the following examples illustrates a number that is correctly rounded to three significant figures?
</em>
a. 109 526 g to 109 500 g. NO. The rounded number has 4 significant figures: 109 500.
b. 0.03954 g to 0.040 g. NO. The rounded number has 2 significant figures: 0.040.
c. 20.0332 g to 20.0 g. YES. The rounded number has 3 significant figures: 20.0.
d. 04.05438 g to 4.054 g. NO. The rounded number has 4 significant figures: 4.054.
e. 103.692 g to 103.7g. NO. The rounded number has 4 significant figures: 103.7.
Answer:
Law of conservation of mass
Ernest Rutherford
Explanation:
The basic law of behavior of matter that states that "mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction or physical change".
This is the law of conservation of mass. It is very essential in understanding most chemical reaction. Also, in quantitative analysis, this law is pivotal.
Ernest Rutherford was the scientist that stated that the nucleus is made up of positive charge. It was not until James Chadwick in 1932 discovered the neutron that we had an understanding of this nuclear component.
Rutherford surmised from his experiment that because most the alpha particles passed through the thin Gold foil and just a tiny fraction was deflected back, the atom is made is made up of small nucleus that is positively charged.
Main advantages of DDT are the insecticide property and the knoledge about its chemical synthesis.
Explanation:
At that time in 1939 it was discovered that DDT have insecticide properties. It is a useful property because it allows inhibition of insects populations in large areas. Killing insects will reduce the diseases transmitted by them as typhus and malaria. More over you prevent the destruction of the agricultural crops by the harmful insects.
However the synthesis of the molecule was known way back in 1874. From that time it was plenty of time in which chemistry knowledge evolved so the synthesis at kilograms scale was implemented. High quantities of DDT molecule become available for the market so that in 1945 was available as agricultural insecticide.
It was discovered that DDT have bad effects for human health and also over time some insects developed resistance and their were not affected anymore by the molecule.
You may find the chemical structure of DDT in the attached figure.
