The correct option is A.
To calculate the binding energy, you have to find the mass defect first.
Mass defect = [mass of proton and neutron] - Mass of the nucleus
The molar mass of thorium that we are given in the question is 234, the atomic number of thorium is 90, that means the number of neutrons in thorium is
234 - 90 = 144.
The of proton in thourium is 90, same as the atomic number.
Mass defect = {[90 * 1.00728] +[144* 1.00867]} - 234
Note that each proton has a mass of 1.00728 amu and each neutron has the mass of 1.00867 amu.
Mass defect = [90.6552 + 145.24848] - 234 = 1.90368 amu.
Note that the unit of the mass is in amu, it has to be converted to kg
To calculate the mass in kg
Mass [kg] = 1.90368 * [1kg/6.02214 * 10^-26 = 3.161135 * 10^-27
To calculate the binding energy
E = MC^2
C = Speed of light constant = 2.9979245 *10^8 m/s2
E = [3.161135 * 10^-27] * [2.9979245 *10^8]^2
E = 2.84108682069 * 10^-10.
Note that we arrive at this answer because of the number of significant figures that we used.
So, from the option given, Option A is the nearest to the calculated value and is our answer for this problem.
Answer:
Answer:
The mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ is 2 : 8, which simplifies to 1 : 4.
Explanation:
The mole ratio is the relative proportion of the moles of products or reactants that participate in the reaction according to the chemical equation.
The chemical equation given is:
2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O
Once you check that the equation is balanced, you can set the mole ratios for all the reactants and products. The coefficients used in front of each reactant and product, in the balanced chemical equation, tells the mole ratios.
In this case, they are: 2 mol C₄H₁₀ : 13 mol O₂ : 8 mol CO₂ : 10 mol H₂O
Since you are asked about the mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ it is:
2 mol C₄H₁₀ : 8 mol CO₂ , which dividing by 2, simplifies to
1 mol C₄H₁₀ : 4 mol CO₂, or
1 : 2.

Answer:
have stars that might appear to wobble
often have one star that is brighter than the other
Explanation:
A binary star system is a star system made up of mostly two stars that moves round their common fixed center.
The two orbiting stars are gravitationally bonded to one another and they move round each other.
Most binary stars might appear wobble. One of the stars often appears brighter than the other.
The change from figure one to figure two was most likely caused by erosion. Erosion is the process of something being eroded by wind, water, or other natural agents.
Answer: Total pressure inside of a vessel is 0.908 atm
Explanation:
According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual partial pressures. exerted by each gas alone.
= partial pressure of nitrogen = 0.256 atm
= partial pressure of helium = 203 mm Hg = 0.267 atm (760mmHg=1atm)
= partial pressure of hydrogen =39.0 kPa = 0.385 atm (1kPa=0.00987 atm)
Thus 
=0.256atm+0.267atm+0.385atm =0.908atm
Thus total pressure (in atm) inside of a vessel is 0.908
