allsm [11]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1a. Both sides of the decay reaction have the same charge.

b. The number of nucleons on both sides are the same.

2. The binding energy of one mole of the atom is 17.172 × 10^{16} J.

Explanation:

1a. Considering the two sides of the decay reaction and with respect to the law of conservation of charge, it can be observed that both sides have the same charge. Charge can not be created or destroyed in the process.

b. The number of nucleons on both sides are equal. No nucleon is created or destroyed in the process.

2. Binding energy is the minimum energy required to separate an atom into its nucleons. From Einstein's energy equation;

             E = Δmc^{2}

Where E is the binding energy of the atom, Δm is the mass defect and c is the speed of light.

Given that: Δm = 1.908 g/mol and c = 3 × 10^{8}. So that:

           E = 1.908 × (3*10^{8}) ^{2}

              = 1.908 × 9 × 10^{16}

              = 17.172 × 10^{16} J

The binding energy of one mole of the atom is 17.172 × 10^{16} J.

Which of the following should have the highest conductivity? a. 3.0 M NaCl b. 2.1 M Na3PO4 c. 2.4 M CaCl2 d. 3.2 M NH4NO3
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, 2.1 M Na₃PO₄.

Explanation:

The solution with the largest concentration of ions will possess the highest conductivity.

a) 3.0 M NaCl

NaCl ⇔ Na⁺ + Cl⁻

Here the total number of ions is 2, therefore, the concentration of ions is 3.0 × 2 = 6.0 M

b) 2.1 M Na₃PO₄

Na₃PO₄ ⇔ 3 Na⁺ + PO₄³⁻

Here the total number of ions i 4. Therefore, the concentration of ions is

2.1 × 4 = 8.4 M.

c) 2.4 M CaCl₂

CaCl₂ ⇔ Ca²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

The total number of ions is 3. Therefore, the concentration of ions is

2.4 × 3 = 7.2 M

d) 3.2 M NH₄NO₃

NH₄NO₃ ⇔ NH₄⁺ + NO₃⁻

The total number of ions is 2. The concentration of ions will be,

3.2 × 2 = 6.4 M

Hence, the highest conductivity will be of 2.1 M Na₃PO₄.

What is the theoretical yield of Ca(OH)2, in grams, if 31.8 g of CaO is hydrolyzed (reacted) in an excess of water?
Fiesta28 [93]

The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂ : 42.032 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

31.8 g of CaO

Required

The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂

Solution

Reaction

CaO + H₂O⇒Ca(OH)₂

mol CaO (MW=56 g/mol) :

= mass : MW

= 31.8 g : 56 g/mol

= 0.568

From equation, mol Ca(OH)₂ = mol CaO = 0.568

Mass Ca(OH)₂ (MW=74 g/mol) :

= 0.568 x 74

= 42.032 g
