Answer: _{38}^{90}\textrm{Sr}\rightarrow _{36}^{86}\textrm{Kr}+_2^4\textrm{He}

Explanation:

Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.

General representation of an element is given as:   _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

General representation of alpha decay :

_Z^A\textrm{Sr}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}Y+_2^4\alpha

The  balanced nuclear equation when the isotope Strontium-90 decays by Q-  decay is :

_{38}^{90}\textrm{Sr}\rightarrow _{36}^{86}\textrm{Kr}+_2^4\textrm{He}

PH of 0,035M HCl? How to count if your calculator hasn't got -lg?
IrinaK [193]

<u>Given information:</u>

Concentration of HCl = 0.035 M

<u>To determine:</u>

pH of the solution

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydrochloric acid, HCl is a strong acid. It will completely dissociate to give H+ and Cl- ions

HCl → H+ + Cl-

Hence the concentration of H+ = Cl- = 0.035M

Now, pH measures the strength of H+ ions in a given solution. It is expressed as:

pH = -log[H+]

pH (HCl) = -log(0.035) = 1.46

Ans: pH of 0.035M HCl is 1.46

Determine the specific heat ofmaterial if a 12g sample absorbed 48j as it was heated from 20-40
devlian [24]

Answer:

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of material = ?

Mass of sample = 12 g

Heat absorbed = 48 J

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 40°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  40°C -20°C

ΔT =  20°C

48 J = 12 g×c×20°C

48 J =240 g.°C×c

c = 48 J/240 g.°C

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Prform the following operation and express the answer in scientific notation 6.0 x 10^3-2.310^3
Marrrta [24]

The value 6.0 x 10^3- 2.3 × 10^3 in scientific notation is 3.7 × 10^3.

<h3> What is scientific notation?</h3>

Scientific notation is a way to write very large or very small numbers so that they are easier to read and work with.

You express a number as the product of a number greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 and an integral power of 10 .

<h3>Why it is used? </h3>

There are two reasons to use scientific notation.

  • The first is to reveal honest uncertainty in experimental measurements.
  • The second is to express very large or very small numbers so they are easier to read.

Given,

= 6.0 x 10^3- 2.3 × 10^3

= (6.0 - 2.3) × 10^3

= 3.7 × 10^3

Thus, we find that the value 6.0 x 10^3- 2.3 × 10^3 in scientific notation is 3.7 × 10^3.

If the sun is next to the earth on the left, and the moon is next to the earth on the right, what type of tide is it?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

When the sun, moon, and Earth are in alignment (at the time of the new or full moon), the solar tide has an additive effect on the lunar tide, creating extra-high high tides, and very low, low tides—both commonly called spring tides.
