What types of radiation cause the parent isotope to change into a different element?

Chemistry
1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

Beta decay is most common in elements with a high neutron to proton ratio. Gamma decay follows the form: In gamma emission, neither the atomic number or the mass number is changed. A high energy gamma ray is given off when the parent isotope falls into a lower energy state.

Calculate the atomic mass of X. The three X isotopes have atomic mass and relative abundances of 27.9769 amu (92.2297%), 28.9765
Irina18 [472]
<h3>Answer:  Si   (choice D)</h3>

This is the element Silicon.

=========================================================

Explanation:

First convert each percentage to its decimal form.

For example, 92.2297% converts to 0.922297 after moving the decimal point two spots to the left.

After doing that, multiply those decimal values with their respective atomic mass unit (amu) values.

  • 27.9769 * 0.922297 = 25.8030109393
  • 28.9765 * 0.046832 = 1.357027448
  • 29.9738 * 0.030872 = 0.9253511536

Then we add up the results

25.8030109393 + 1.357027448 + 0.9253511536 = 28.0853895409

That rounds to about 28.085

Then look at the periodic table to see the atomic mass of Cobalt (Co), Aluminum (Al), Nickel (Ni) and Silicon (Si). The mass values listed in the periodic table are weighted averages of all the isotopes. The units for the mass are still in amu.

  • Cobalt = 58.933
  • Aluminum = 26.982
  • Nickel = 58.693
  • Silicon = 28.085

We have a match with silicon, showing that <u>choice D</u> is the final answer.

Given the following equation, how many grams of PbCO3 will dissolve when exactly 1.0 L of 1.00 M H+ is added to 6.00 g of PbCO3?
9966 [12]
Calculating for the moles of H+
1.0 L x (1.00 mole / 1 L ) = 1 mole H+

From the given balanced equation, we can use the stoichiometric ratio to solve for the moles of PbCO3:
1 mole H+ x (1 mole PbCO3 / 2 moles H+) = 0.5 moles PbCO3

Converting the moles of PbCO3 to grams using the molecular weight of PbCO3
0.5 moles PbCO3 x (267 g PbCO3 / 1 mole PbCO3) = 84.5 g PbCO3
