Given the equation:

What types of radiation cause the parent isotope to change into a different element?

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Beta decay is most common in elements with a high neutron to proton ratio. Gamma decay follows the form: In gamma emission, neither the atomic number or the mass number is changed. A high energy gamma ray is given off when the parent isotope falls into a lower energy state.

What is the molecular formula of an empirical N2H3 if n=2? SHOW WORK!

aliya0001 [1]

A compound's empirical formula tells you what the smallest whole number ratio between the atoms that make up that compound is.

I think of the empirical formula as a building block for molecules. A compound's molecular formula will depend on how many building blocks are needed to build a molecule of a given substance.

In your example, you know that the empirical formula of the compound is

NO

2

.

This tells you that the minimum ratio between nitrogen atoms and oxygen atoms is

1

:

2

. In other words, the molecular formula will be a multiple of this building block.

n

, where

n

- the number of building blocks needed to build the molecular formula.

You also know that the molar mass of your compound is

92 g/mol

.

This means that the molar mass of all the atoms that make up that molecule must add up to give

92 g/mol

.

So, how would you determine how many building blocks you need? Well, start by figuring out the molar mass of one building block, i.e. the molar mass of the empirical formula.

Since it contains one nitrogen atom and two oxygen atoms, you will get

So, if one building block has a molar mass of

46.0055 g/mol

, how many would you need to get the molecule?

This means that the compound's molecular formula, which lists all the atoms that make up a molecule, will be

When 0.514 g of biphenyl (c12h10) undergoes comubustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases from 25.80 °c to 29.40

slava [35]

The change in internal energy of the combustion of biphenyl in Kj is calculated as follows

=heat capacity of bomb calorimeter x delta T where delta T is change in temperature
delta T = 29.4 -25.8= 3.6 c

= 5.86 kj/c x 3.6 c = 21.096 kj

Help asap on a time crunch

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

only sodium chloride compounds MOST LIKELY products of the reaction between sodium metal and chlorine gas.

Correct answer - C

Explanation:

A solid sodium metal reacts with gaseous form of chlorine gas to form a solid sodium chloride.

This formation of sodium chloride arises due to transfer of one valence electron from sodium to chlorine atom and the both atoms get stable octet electronic configuration.

As a result, an ionic compound solid sodium chloride is formed.

The chemical reaction of formation sodium chloride is as follows.

$2Na(s)+Cl_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2NaCl(s)$

Therefore, only sodium chloride compounds MOST LIKELY products of the reaction between sodium metal and chlorine gas.

Which is the dependent variable in an experiment? 1.what I observe. 2. what I keep the same 3.What I change in the experiment. H

shtirl [24]

Answer:

1.what I observe.

Explanation:

The dependent variable in an experiment is what is being observed in the experimental procedure.

This variable is the one that is closely tied to the effects originating from changing the independent variables.

Independent variables are the ones that cause the observation being studied.
The effects produced and then studied are the dependent variables.
