How is a "decay event' recorded

Chemistry
1 answer:
mrs_skeptik [129]3 years ago
6 0
Their dark matter detector witnessed the rarest event ever recorded: the radioactive decay of xenon-124. ... The supreme fine-tuning and clean measurements allowed by XENON1T enabled scientists to witness xenon-124 decay away at a rate that far exceeds the life of the universe.
Hope that helps.

The change in entropy is related to the change in the number of moles of gas molecules. Determine the change in moles of gas for
tester [92]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The change in entropy is related to the change in the number of moles of gas molecules. Determine the change in moles of gas for each of the reactions and decide if the entropy increases decreases or has little to no change:

A. K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s)

B. CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)

C. CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

D. N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g)

Answer: A. K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s) : decreases

B. CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2(g) : decreases

C. CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g): no change

D. N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g) : increases

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the randomness of the system.

Entropy is said to increase when the randomness of the system increase, is said to decrease when the randomness of the system decrease and is said to have no change when the randomness remains same.

In reaction K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s), as gaseous reactant is changed to solid product, entropy decreases.

In reaction CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g), as 4 moles of gaseous reactants is changed to 2 moles of gaseous product, entropy decreases.

In reaction CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g), as 3 moles of gaseous reactants is changed to 3 moles of gaseous product, entropy has no change.

In reaction  N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g) , as 1 mole of gaseous reactant is changed to 3 moles of gaseous product, entropy increases.

The radius of the smaller circle is 8 feet. The distance from the rim of the inner circle to the rim of the outer circle is 3 fe
postnew [5]

Answer:

178.98 sq. feet

Explanation:

The path and the garden has been shown in the figure below. The green area is the garden and the area in brown is the path.

It has been given that,

Radius of garden = 8 feet

So, the area of garden = 3.14 × 8 × 8 = 200.96 sq. feet

The total radius of the land including garden and path = 8 + 3 = 11 feet

So, the total are of land including garden and path = 3.14 × 11 × 11 = 379.94 sq. feet

So, the area of path = Total area of the land - area of garden

Area of path = 379.94 - 200.96 = 178.98 sq. feet

cyclohexanol is burned as a fuel, according to the following equation, how many moles of oxygen are needed to produce 13.7 mol o
lidiya [134]

 The moles  of oxygen  that are needed  to produce 13.7 moles  of  carbon  dioxide  is  21.17  moles  of Oxygen


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

2 C₆H₁₂O  + 17 O₂ → 12 CO₂  +12 H₂O


The moles of O₂  is determined using the mole ratio

that  is for  given equation above   O₂ : Co₂  is 17 :12

therefore the moles of O ₂= 13.7   moles x 17/12 =21.17  moles
