Answer:

beryllium-10

Explanation:

An isotope is an atom <u>of the same element</u> that has a different number of neutrons.

This means that an isotope of beryllium (Be) would have to be beryllium as well.

The number 10 references the fact that it has four protons and <u>six </u>neutrons:

4 protons + 6 neutrons = 10

While usually the element has 5 neutrons, so it is beryllium-9.

Answer:

  3.0×10⁻¹³ M

Explanation:

The solubility product Ksp is the product of the concentrations of the ions involved. This relation can be used to find the solubility of interest.

<h3>Equation</h3>

The power of each concentration in the equation for Ksp is the coefficient of the species in the balanced equation.

  Ksp = [Al₃⁺³]×[OH⁻]³

<h3>Solving for [Al₃⁺³]</h3>

The initial concentration [OH⁻] is that in water, 10⁻⁷ M. The reaction equation tells us there are 3 OH ions for each Al₃ ion. If x is the concentration [Al₃⁺³], then the reaction increases the concentration [OH⁻] by 3x.

This means the solubility product equation is ...

  Ksp = x(10⁻⁷ +3x)³

For the given Ksp = 3×10⁻³⁴, we can estimate the value of x will be less than 10⁻⁸. This means the sum will be dominated by the 10⁻⁷ term, and we can figure x from ...

  3.0×10⁻³⁴ = x(10⁻⁷)³

Then x = [Al₃⁺³] will be ...

  [\text{Al}_3^{\,+3}]=\dfrac{3.0\times10^{-34}}{10^{-21}}\approx \boxed{3.0\times10^{-13}\qquad\text{moles per liter}}

We note this value is significantly less than 10⁻⁷, so our assumption that it could be neglected in the original Ksp equation is substantiated.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The attachment shows the solution of the 4th-degree Ksp equation in x. The only positive real root (on the bottom line) rounds to 3.0×10^-13.

What would happen if you didn't have chemical energy in your body
andrew-mc [135]
According to law of thermodynamics, energy can neither be created nor can be destroyed. It can be converted from one from one form to another. 

Hence, the food that we eat is a source of energy. The chemical energy stored in food, is utilized for various function of body such as breathing, walking, talking, etc. Now, if you body does not have chemical energy, if will not be able to perform various task, which are essential for living. 

Due to this, <span>absence of  chemical energy in the body, can </span>will eventually lead to death.
