Answer:

X represents barium - 141 nucleus.

Written as: (141, 56) Ba

Explanation:

In nuclear fission reaction, due to the fact that the process produces more neutrons, a nuclear chain reaction can possibly occurr. Now, a chain reaction is a one whereby the material that begins the reaction will also be one of the products and it can start another reaction.

Now, for the nuclear chain reaction for the fission of uranium-235, its nucleus absorbs a neutron after which it splits into a krypton - 92 nucleus and a barium - 141 nucleus. Thereafter it releases three more neutrons.

Thus, X is the image represents barium - 141 nucleus.

(141,56) Ba

On the first day of your new job as a chemist, you are given a bottle of magnesium sulfate and asked to make 30 mL of 0.3 M MgSO
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 15500 mg of MgSO₄ 7H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Volume = 30 ml

Concentration = 0.3 M

Formula MgSO4∗7H2O

Process

1.- Calculate the number of moles needed

 Molarity = moles / volume

Solve for moles

 moles = Molarity x volume

Substitution

 moles = 0.3 x 0.03 l

 moles = 0.009 moles of MgSO₄

2.- Calculate the molecular mass of MgSO4∗7H2O

molecular mass = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112

                           = 246 g

3.- Get the proportion MgSO4 :7H2O, this proportion is 1 : 7

4.- Calculate the amount of MgSO4∗7H2O

    0.009 mol of MgSO4 \frac{7 MgSO4 7H2O}{1 mol MgSO4} \frac{246 g MgSO4 7H2O}{1 mol MgSO4 7H2O}

Simplification

   15.5 g = 15500 mg

What are reasons standardizing conditions in which chemist describe matter?
ExtremeBDS [4]
Matter is the basic unit of every thing in the world, whether living or nonliving. So, it is logical to set definitions and postulates because these could pave way to other complexities of science. It is the foundation of science. That is why theories and laws are formulated for matter such as: Kinetic Theory of Matter, Dalton's Atomic Model, Newton's Law of Motion, Conservation Laws and many more.
