Answer:

¹⁰₄Be —> ¹⁰₃Li + ⁰₋₁β

Explanation:

To know which equation is unbalanced, we shall compare the mass number and atomic number of the reactant and product together. This is illustrated below:

¹²¹₅₀Sn —> ⁰₋₁β + ¹²¹₅₁Sb

121 = 0 + 121

121 = 121

50 = –1 + 51

50 = 51

Thus the above equation is balanced

¹⁹⁰₇₈Pt —> ¹⁸⁶₇₆Os + ⁴₂α

190 = 186 + 4

190 = 190

78 = 76 + 2

78 = 78

Thus, the above equation is balanced

¹⁰₄Be —> ¹⁰₃Li + ⁰₋₁β

10 = 10 + 0

10 = 10

4 = 3 + (–1)

4 = 3 – 1

4 = 2

Thus, the above equation is unbalanced.

²³⁸₉₂U —> ⁴₂α + ²³⁴₉₀Th

238 = 4 + 234

238 = 238

92 = 2 + 90

92 = 92

Thus, the above equation is balanced.

From the illustrations made above, only ¹⁰₄Be —> ¹⁰₃Li + ⁰₋₁β

Is unbalanced.

Materials expand when heated. Consider a metal rod of length L0 at temperature T0. If the temperature is changed by an amount ΔT
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

(a) The length at temperature 180°C is 40.070 cm

(b) The length at temperature 90°C is 64.976 inches

(c) L(T, α) = 60·α·T - 9000·α + 60

Explanation:

(a) The given parameters are

The thermal expansion coefficient, α for steel = 1.24 × 10⁻⁵/°C

The initial length of the steel L₀ = 40 cm

The initial temperature, t₀ = 40°C

The length at temperature 180°C = L

Therefore, from the given relation, for change in length, ΔL, we have;

ΔL = α × L₀ × ΔT

The amount the temperature changed ΔT = 180°C - 40°C = 140°C

Therefore, the change in length, ΔL, is found as follows;

ΔL = α × L₀ × ΔT = 1.24 × 10⁻⁵/°C × 40 × 140°C = 0.07 cm

Therefore, L =  L₀ + ΔL = 40 + 0.07 = 40.07 cm

The length at temperature 180°C = 40.07 cm

(b) Given that the length at T = 120°C is 65 in., we have;

The temperature at which the new length is sought = 90°C

The amount the temperature changed ΔT = 90°C - 120°C = -30°C

ΔL = α × L₀ × ΔT = 1.24 × 10⁻⁵/°C × 65 × -30°C = -0.024375 inches

The length, L at 90°C is therefore, L = L₀ + ΔL = 65 - 0.024375 = 64.976 in.

The length at temperature 90°C = 64.976 inches

(c) L = L₀ + ΔL  = L₀ +  α × L₀ × ΔT = L₀ +  α × L₀ × (T - T₀)

Therefore;

L = 60 +  α × 60 × (T - 150°C)

L = 60 + α × 60 × T - 9000 × α

L(T, α) = 60·α·T - 9000·α + 60

You mix 145 grams of water with 200 grams of ethanol to make a solution. What is the solute and what is the solvent?
hodyreva [135]

The greater amount is the solvent and the lesser amount is the solute.

Hence ethanol(200g) which is the greater amount is the solvent here.

And water (145g) which is lesser is the solute here.

An egg is placed in a graduated cylinder to determine its volume. The following data are obtained. What is the volume of the egg
Natalka [10]

If egg is dipped in cylinder then the volume of egg will be difference in the volumes before dipping egg (initial volume) and volume after dipping egg (final volume)

Volume of egg= 58.5-50.0 = 8.5 mL
