The nuclei of atoms become unstable when the repelling forces of the protons cannot be balanced by the number of neutrons in the nucleus. It then re-arranges itself randomly to a more stable configuration by emitting any of a series of particles. During radioactive decay, an atom does not collapse.
Since an atom is mostly empty space - that is it’s nucleus is relatively distant from the electron shells so, in the presence of extreme forces such as gravity inthe collapse of a large star, the inward pressures on the atom overcome the natural balance of the atomic structure and the ‘empty space’ disappears as nuclei are mashed together by the intense pressures and a neutron star is formed. Under even more external pressure, even the neutron star can collapse to form a black hole.
Answer:
Option D. 4.02 kJ
Explanation:
A simple calorimetry problem
Q = m . C . ΔT
ΔT = Final T° - Initial T°
C = Specific heat capacity
m = mass
Let's replace the data
Q = 125 g . 2.42 J/g∘C . (34.8°C -21.5 °C)
Q= 4023.25 J
We must convert the answer to kJ
4023.25 J . 1kJ /1000 =4.02kJ
The statement above is true. He conducted the oil-drop experiment which lead him to determine the charge of the electron. He suspended charged droplets into an oil which is in between two electrodes and balancing the upward force with the downward forces.
Answer:
0.125 moles
Explanation:
2.8 litres is equivalent to 2.8dm³
At STP,
1 mole = 22.4 dm³
x mole = 2.8 dm³
Cross multiply
22.4x = 2.8
Divide both sides by 22.4
x = 2.8/22.4
x = 0.125
Use the clapeyron equation:
T in kelvin : 6.80 + 273 => 279.8 K
R = 0.082
n = 71.5 moles
P = 5.03 atm
Therefore:
P x V = n x R x T
5.03 x V = 71.5 x 0.082 x 279.8
5.03 x V = 1640.4674
V = 1640.4674 / 5.03
V = 326.13 L
hope ths helps!
