Answer:

18

Explanation:

17 protons + 18 neutrons = 35

17 protons + 20 neutrons = 37 particles in the nucleus

Hope this is right

A barrel of crude oil has a volume of 42 gallons, only approximately 45% of which is processed into gasoline. If your car achiev
balandron [24]

Answer:

The number of barrels of crude oil required to run the car for a year is 52.9 barrels of crude oil

Explanation:

The information given are as follows;

Percentage of crude oil processed into gasoline = 45%

Distance achieved per gallon by car = 36 mi/gal

Distance driven per year = 36,000 miles

Gasoline\,  usage \,  in \, one \,  year = \dfrac{Distance \  driven\  per \ year }{Distance\  achieved \ per gallon \ by \ car } = \dfrac{36000\, miles}{36\, miles/gallon}\dfrac{36000\, miles}{36\, miles/gallon} = 1000 \, gallons

∴ Gasoline usage in one year = 1,000 gallons

Percentage of crude oil processed into gasoline = 45%

Hence, where 45% of the crude oil produces 1000, the volume of crude, x, from which the gasoline is sourced becomes;

x × 45/100 = 1000 gallons

x =100 × 1000/45 = 20000/9 gallons of crude

1 barrel of crude oil is approximately 42 gallons of crude oil

∴ 20000/9 gallons of crude = 20000/(9×42) barells of crude = 10000/

Which gives;

52\tfrac{172}{189} \, barrels \, of \, crude \, oil

Which is 52.9 barrels of crude oil

Hence the number of barrels of crude oil required to run the car for a year = 52.9 barrels of crude oil.

A reaction contains two reactants, A and B. If A is doubled, there will be a greater number of effective collisions between reac
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The complete question is:

<u><em>"A reaction contains two reactants, A and B. If A is doubled, there will be a greater number of effective collisions between reactants. TRUE FALSE"</em></u>

Collision Theory indicates that chemical reactions take place because molecules, atoms or ions collide with each other.

Furthermore, the molecules must collide effectively, that is, not all reagent collisions lead to product formation. Effective shock means that the reagent molecules have enough kinetic energy at the time of the shock for their bonds to break and product bonds to form. In addition, the molecules of the reagents must be properly oriented for the reaction to take place.

As the concentration increases, the number of shocks increases. In other words, by increasing the concentration of the reactants, the probability of collision between their molecules increases, and therefore the number of effective collisions.So the statement is true-

A certain watch’s luminous glow is due to zinc sulfide paint that is energized by beta particles given off by tritium, the radio
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The watch is 40.9 years old.

Explanation:

To know how many years old is the watch we need to use the following equation:

I_{(t)} = I_{0}e^{-\lambda t}   (1)

Where:

I_{(t)}: is the brightness in a time t = (1/10)I₀

I_{0}: is the initial brightness

λ: is the decay constant of tritium

The decay constant is given by:

\lambda = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}   (2)

Where:

t_{1/2}: is the half-life of tritium = 12.3 years

By entering equation (2) into (1)  we have:

I_{(t)} = I_{0}e^{-\lambda t} = I_{0}e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}t}

\frac{I_{(t)}}{I_{0}} = e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}t}

By solving the above equation for "t" we have:

ln(\frac{I_{(t)}}{I_{0}}) = -\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}t

t = -\frac{ln(\frac{I_{(t)}}{I_{0}})}{\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}} = -\frac{ln(\frac{1}{10})}{\frac{ln(2)}{12.3}} = 40.9 y

Therefore, the watch is 40.9 years old.

 

I hope it helps you!
