The equation below shows the decomposition of lead nitrate. How many molecules of PbO are produced when 11.5 g NO2 is formed?

Which statement best explains why mass is not conserved in a nuclear change?

kogti [31]

Answer:

Mass in nuclear reactions is not strictly conserved due to this principle of mass and energy being quite similar. We know that nuclear reactions release a lot of energy. This energy, though, is actually mass that is lost from nucleons, converted into energy, and lost as the mass defect.

Some mass is turned into energy, according to E=mc2.

Explanation:

E=mc2 is probably the most famous equation. E is the energy, m is mass, and c is the constant speed of light. Einstein came up with it to show that energy and mass are proportional - one can turn into the other, and back again.

If 0.089 grams of KI is dissolved in 500g of H2O, what is the concentration of the resulting solution in parts per million?

frez [133]

Answer:

The concentration of the resulting solution in parts per million is 177.97

Explanation:

Parts per million (ppm), is a unit of measure for concentration that refers to the number of units of the substance per million units of the set.

The concentration in parts per million expressed in mass / mass is calculated by dividing the mass of the solute (ms) by the mass of the solution (md, sum of the mass of the solute and the mass of the solvent), both expressed in the same unit and multiplied by 10⁶ (1 million).

$ppm=\frac{ms}{md} *10^{6}$
