The two elements that produce background radiation on earth are Radon and Uranium. Airborne radon can decay on its own. Radon undergoes alpha decay to produce Polonium. Uranium naturally undergoes alpha decay to produce Thorium.
Answer:
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons
Explanation:
nitrogen has it's attoms form triple bonds which are very hard to break
so non-reactive
The average mass of an atom is calculated with the formula:
average mass = abundance of isotope (1) × mass of isotope (1) + abundance of isotope (2) × mass of isotope (2) + ... an so on
For the boron we have two isotopes, so the formula will become:
average mass of boron = abundance of isotope (1) × mass of isotope (1) + abundance of isotope (2) × mass of isotope (2)
We plug in the values:
10.81 = 0.1980 × 10.012938 + 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)
10.81 = 1.98 + 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)
10.81 - 1.98 = 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)
8.83 = 0.8020 × mass of isotope (2)
mass of isotope (2) = 8.83 / 0.8020
mass of isotope (2) = 11.009975
mass of isotope (1) = 10.012938 (given by the question)
Explanation:
To solve this problem, follow these steps;
- Obtain a balanced equation of the reaction and familiarize with the reactants and products.
- Find the number of moles of the reacting species since they are the known matter in terms of quantity.
- From the number of moles, determine the limiting reactant.
- The limiting reactant is the one given in short supply.
- Such reactant determines the extent of the reaction.
- Compare the moles of this specie to that of the products using the balanced equation.
- Obtain the mole of the desired product and find the mass or desired quantity.
- simply work from the known specie to the unknown
