What is the change in atomic number when an atom emits a beta particle?
salantis [7]

When an atom emits a beta particle from the nucleus, the nucleus only has one more proton and one less neutron and this will make the atomic mass number remains unchanged while the atomic number increases by 1.

adam wants to investigate the strengths of different acids and alkalis. He has 2 different acid solutions and 2 different alkali
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The strength of an acid or alkali depends on the degree of dissociation of the acid or alkali in water. The degree of dissociation measures the percentage of acid molecules that ionise when dissolved in water. He could use universal indicators or litmus paper for this.

Explanation:

What is the volume of a 5M solution with that has 16.5 moles?
kenny6666 [7]
Molarity can be used to calculate the volume of solvent or the amount of solute. The relationship between two solutions with the same amount of moles of solute can be represented by the formula c1V1 = c2V2, where c is concentration and V is volume.

In order to gain one pound of body weight, the average person must consume 3500 more calories
Fed [463]

Answer:

<em>17500 calories</em> of chocolate bars are needed to eat to gain 5 pounds.

Explanation:

We can use ratios to calculate the answer using the information given in the question.

1 pound : 3500 grams

5 pounds : x grams

As it is given that the individual is burning no calories, we do not have to factor in any additional numbers.

<u><em>Method</em><em> </em><em>A</em><em>:</em></u>

To go from 1 in the first ratio to 5 in the second ratio, they multipled 1 by 5. Hence, to go from 3500 in the first ratio to x in the second ratio, we must multiply by 5.

x = 3500 × 5

x = 17500

<em><u>Method B</u>:</em>

To solve for the answer x, we can convert the ratios into fractions.

1 / 5 = 3500 / x

3500 / x = 1 / 5

To make x the subject, multiply the denominator of the left fraction with the numerator of the right fraction and place it on the left side. Then multiply the numerator of the left fraction with the denominator of the right fraction and place it on the right side.

x = 5 × 3500

x = 17500

Write the chemical equation for the dissolution reaction of solid iron(iii) hydroxide in water. include the phases of all specie
Allushta [10]
When solid <span>iron (iii) hydroxide is dissolved into water, it ionizes or it dissociates into ions. These ions are the iron (iii) ions and the hydroxide ions. Iron(III) oxide is classified as a base when in aqueous solution since it produces hydroxide ions. It is a weak base so it does not completely dissociate into the solution. The dissociation equation would be:

Fe(OH)3 <-----> Fe3+ + OH-

To write a complete reaction, the reaction should be balanced wherein the number of atoms of each element in the reactant side and the product side should be equal. Also, the phases of the substances should be written. We do as follows:

</span>
Fe(OH)3 (s)  <-----> Fe3+ (aq) + 3OH- (aq)
