Which equation represents a transuranium​
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

1) Since you have not provided the equations to select the right one, I am going to explain you the relevant facts that are used to solve this question.

2) The transuranium elements are the chemiical elements with atomic number greater than that of the uranium.

The atomic number of uranium is 92. So, the transuranium elements are the elements with atomic number 93 or greater.

This are some of the transuranium elements:

Neptunio - 93

Plutonium - 94

Americium - 95

Curium - 96

Berkelium - 97

Californium - 98

Einstenium - 99

And so all the known elements (the last one is the 118).

3) In a nuclear reaction the total mass number ( shown as superscript to the left of the symbol) and total atomic number (shown as subscript to the left of the symbol) are conserved.

4) Beta decay is the release of a beta particle, which is an electron (considered massles and with charge - 1). So, the beta decay is represented with the symbol:

0

 β, which means 0 mass and charge - 1.

-1

5) This is, then, an example of a β decay equation for one transuranium element:

239              239            0

     Np    →         Pu   +      β

 93                94            -1

As you see 239 = 239 + 0 and 93 = 94 - 1, showing that the total mass number ( shown as superscript to the left of the symbol) and the total atomic number (shown as subscript to the left of the symbol) are conserved.

Determine the mass of water in kg, if 4300 cal of energy is placed in water, resulting in a temperature change to 101.0 oC from
Airida [17]

Answer:

0.5059kg

Explanation:

The heat absorbed for the water is determined using the equation:7

Q = C×m×ΔT

<em>Where Q is heat absorbed (4300cal)</em>

<em>C is specific heat (1cal/g°C)</em>

<em>m is the mass in grams</em>

<em>ΔT is change in °C (101.0°C - 92.5°C = 8.5°C)</em>

<em />

Replacing:

4300cal = 1cal/g°C×m×8.5°C

505.9g = m

In kg, the mass of water is:

<h3>0.5059kg</h3>

What type of bonds hold the atoms together in polyatomic ions
IRISSAK [1]
<span>This is a covalent bond, a bond in which atoms share electrons. Covalent bonding generally happens between nonmetals. Covalent bonding is the type of bond that holds together the atoms within a polyatomic ion. It takes two electrons to make a covalent bond, one from each bonding atom.

A force that exists throughout the universe. Earth's will pull on you at a rate of 9.8 m/s2 if you ignore friction.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Your answer is Gravity,

The Earth's gravity pulls things at a rate of 9.8m/s² (varying depending upon one's distance). according to Newton, "all mass in the universe exerts some gravitational force". you are pulling on Sagitarios A* (the black hole at the center of the milky way galaxy) right now, and it is also pulling on you.

If you have any questions I <em><u>insist</u></em> that you ask in the comments.
