Nata [24]

Answer: The mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399

Explanation:

Mass defect is defined as the difference in the mass of an isotope and its mass number.

The equation used to calculate mass defect follows:

$\Delta m=[(n_p\times m_p)+(n_n\times m_n)]-M$

where,

$n_p$ = number of protons

$m_p$ = mass of one proton

$n_n$ = number of neutrons

$m_n$ = mass of one neutron

M = mass number of element

We are given:

An isotope of phosphorus which is $_{15}^{31}\textrm{P}$

Number of protons = atomic number = 15

Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 31 - 15 = 16

Mass of proton = 1.00728 amu

Mass of neutron = 1.00866 amu

Mass number of phosphorus = 30.973765 amu

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta m=[(15\times 1.00728)+(16\times 1.00866)]-30.973765\\\\\Delta m=0.27399$

Hence, the mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399

The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold.

azamat

Answer:

(a) $m_{gold}=7.322g$

(b)

$V_{gold}=0.379cm^3$

$V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

(c) $\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3$

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, with the given formula we easily compute the mass of gold contained in the sovereign as shown below:

$m_{gold}=\frac{m_{tota}*karats}{24}=\frac{7.988g*22}{24}=7.322g$

(b) Now, by knowing the density of gold and copper, 19.32 and 8.94 g/cm³ respectively, we compute each volume, by also knowing that the rest of the coin contains copper:

$V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}} =\frac{7.322g}{19.32g/cm^3}=0.379cm^3$

$m_{copper}=7.988g-7.322g=1.09g\\V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}=\frac{1.09g}{8.94g/cm^3} \\\\V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

(c) Finally, the volume is computed by dividing the total mass over the total volume containing both gold and copper:

$\rho _{coin}=\frac{m_{total}}{V_{gold}+V_{copper}}=\frac{7.988 g}{0.379cm^3+0.122cm^3}\\ \\\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3$

Best regards.

Substances that are readily combustible or may cause fire through friction

Dvinal [7]

Answer :

Flammable substances

Explanation :

Flammable substances will catch fire and continue to burn when they contact an ignition source like a spark or a flame.

For example, methanol is a flammable liquid.

A flammable solid may also catch fire through friction. Matches are flammable solids.

Which statement correctly pairs the climate factor with its effect on temperature? *

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

A region on top of a mountain is cooler than at the base.

Explanation:

Pressure and temperature have direct relationship with each other. With the decrease in pressure, the temperature decreases and vice versa. When the air rises in the atmosphere, the pressure starts to fall. The low pressure at the peak of the mountains tends to cause the fall in temperature. It is because of this reason that it is cooler at the top of the mountain while the temperature is less cool in the foothills.

What is the final volume?

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Option A. 9.4 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 8 L

Initial temperature (T₁) = 293 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 343 K

Final volume (V₂) =?

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂

8 / 293 = V₂ / 343

Cross multiply

293 × V₂ = 8 × 343

293 × V₂ = 2744

Divide both side by 293

V₂ = 2744 / 293

V₂ = 9.4 L

Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 9.4 L
