Answer:

The larger the number of the energy level, the farther it is from the nucleus. Electrons that are in the highest energy level are called valence electrons. Within each energy level is a volume of space where specific electrons are likely to be located.

Heavy nuclides with too few neutrons to be in the band of stability are most likely to decay by what mode?

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Positron emission

Explanation:

Positron emission involves the conversion of a proton to a neutron. This process increases the mass number of the daughter nucleus by 1 while its atomic number remains the same. The new neutron increases the number of neutrons present in the daughter nucleus hence the process increases the N/P ratio.

A positron is usually ejected in the process together with an anti-neutrino to balance the spins.

Define the boiling and evaporation using kinetic theory

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

By the kinetic molecular theory (particle model), all matter consists of particles, there are spaces between the particles, the particles are in constant random motion, and there are forces of attraction and repulsion between the particles.

Furthermore, temperature is defined to be a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

Evaporation is a change of phase from liquid to gas explained as follows :

When particles in the liquid phase are heated, they gain kinetic energy and move faster and further apart. Eventually they have enough energy to escape the forces of attraction holding them together in the liquid phase and they move very fast and far from each other and exist in the gaseous phase.

What temperature will the water reach when 10.1 g CaO is dropped into a coffee cup containing 157 g H2O at 18.0°C if the followi

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Final temperature attained by water = 34.6°C

Explanation:

The reaction of CaO and H₂O is an exothermic reaction. The equation of reaction is given below:

CaO + H₂O ----> Ca(OH)₂

The quantity of heat given off, ΔH°rxn = 64.8KJ/mol = 64800J/mol

Number of moles of CaO = mass/molar mass, where molar mass of Ca0 = 56g/mol, mass of CaO = 10.1g

Number of moles of CaO = 10.1g/56g/mol =0.179moles

Quantity of heat given off by 0.179 moles = 64800 *0.179 = 11599.2J/mol

Using the formula, Quantity of heat, q = mass * specific heat capacity * temperature rise.

mass of mixture = (10.1 + 157)g = 167.1g, Initial temperature = 18.0°C

Final temperature(T₂) - Initial temperature(T₁) = Temperature rise

11599.2J/mol = 167.1g * 4.18J/g·°C * ( T₂ - 18.0°C)

11599.2 = 698.478T₂ - 12572.604

11599.2 + 12572.604 = 698.478T₂

698.478T₂ = 24171.804

T₂ = 34.6°C

Therefore, final temperature attained by water = 34.6°C
