Making repeated separations of the various substances in the pitchblende, Marie and Pierre used the Curie electrometer to identify the most radioactive fractions. They thus discovered that two fractions, one containing mostly bismuth and the other containing mostly barium, were strongly radioactive.
<h3>What was surprising about pitchblende?</h3>
Since it was no longer appropriate to call them “uranic rays,” Marie proposed a new name: “radioactivity.”
Even more surprising, Marie next found that a uranium ore called pitchblende contained two powerfully radioactive new elements: polonium, which she named for her native Poland, and radium.
<h3>Why is radium more radioactive than uranium?</h3>
It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.

Answer is: 3,3 mol of <span>nitrous oxide gas is produced in this chemical reaction.
</span>Chemical reaction: N₂ + O₂ → 2NO.
n(N₂) = 1,65 mol.
n(NO) = ?
from reaction n(N₂) : n(NO) = 1 : 2.
1,65 mol : n(NO) = 1 : 2.
n(NO) = 3,3 mol.
n - amount of substance.
<h2>Hello!</h2>
The correct answer is A: Water molecules evaporate and condense at the same rate.
<h2>Why?</h2>
Evaporation is defined as the physical change from liquid to gas, and Condensation is the physical change from gas to liquid.
At any given temperature, these two processes occur at once, in a dynamic equilibrium.
When the lid is closed, evaporation occurs faster than condensation, and pressure increases. Then, when pressure reaches a critical value, condensation starts to occur faster than evaporation, until an equilibrium is reached, and the pressure of the water molecules in the gas phase is maximum for that temperature. The pressure at that point is called Vapor Pressure.
Have a nice day!
Water is formed when this happens
