Why does table salt dissolve more rapidly than rock salt
Sergio [31]
Because in rock salt, the molecules are packed together and they take longer time to separate and dissolve. As for table salt the molecules are less packed together and take less time to dissolve. Think it like this. The more packed or tightly the substance/object is, the longer it will take for the object to dissolve. The less packed the object/substance is the faster it takes to dissolve. Hope this helped :)

Atmospheric pressure yesterday was given as 0.875 atm. Express this pressure in units of torr and also in kilopascals (kPa), res
Aneli [31]
This problem is about conversion and dimensional analysis. Important information to know:
 1 atm = 760 torr = 101.325 kPa

For atm to torr conversion:

0.875 atm * (760 torr / 1 atm) = 665 torr

For atm to kPa conversion:

0.875 atm * (101.325 kPa / atm) = 88.7 kPa

Thus the answer is b) 665 torr and 88.7 kPa

E. The element 231/90Th decays to 231/91 Pa. Use the laws of conservation of charge and nucleon number to determine the decay pa
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A negatron emission

Explanation:

We know that radioactivity orginates from instability of the nucleus. When the nucleus is unstable, radioactive emissions are produced in the form of any of these rays:

> Alpha particle emisson

>Beta particles

> Gamma rays

These emissions create a balance for a radioactive decay.

In balancing nuclear reactions we make sure that the charges on both sides must be conserved and that the mass number and atomic numbers conserved too. This means that the sum of mass number and atomic numbers on both side of the reaction must be equal.

The nucleons are the protons and neutrons, they add up to give the mass number. The atomic number is the proton number.

For the given radioactive reaction:

²³¹₉₀Th → ²³¹₉₁Pa + ?

From this equation, we see that the mass number is conserved but the atomic number is not.

The mass number is the superscript whereas the atomic number is the subscript.

Let's say the decay produces an emission of a particle denoted by X

²³¹₉₀Th → ²³¹₉₁Pa + ᵃₙX

What would the nature of X be?

For the charges and masses to be conserved, X must have mass number of 0 and an atomic number of -1.

Checking:

Mass number:

231 = 231 + a ( a is the mass number)

a = 231 - 231 = 0

Atomic number:

90 = 91 + n

n = 90- 91 = - 1

With X having a mass number of 0 and an atomic number of -1, we have a beta particle emission. Specifically, a negatron has been emitted.

A negatron is denoted as ⁰₋₁β which perfectly makes the equation conserved and suits the description of X.

The complete equation is thus written as:

²³¹₉₀Th → ²³¹₉₁Pa + ⁰₋₁β + energy

How do you figure out the final temperature or the initial temperature in calorimetry.
Zolol [24]
Add the change in temperature to your substance's original temperature to find its final heat. For example, if your water was initially at 24 degrees Celsius, its final temperature would be: 24 + 6, or 30 degrees Celsius.
