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

Chemistry
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
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.

Simora [160]

Answer:

1.00 x 10^-5 M

Explanation:

pOH=-log[OH^-]

so

[OH^-]=10^(-pOH)

=10^-5

=1.00 x 10^-5 M

Contrast aluminum and nitrogen. Show why aluminum is a metal and nitrogen is not.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Nitrogen: Non- metal = they are poor conductors of heat and electricity, they are brittle solids, not ductile in their solid state - they cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets. They are usually dull and therefore show no metallic luster and they do not reflect light. They also have a low density.

Aluminium: Metal= Offers a rare combination of valuable properties. It is one of the lightest metals in the world: it's almost three times lighter than iron but it's also very strong, extremely flexible and corrosion resistant because its surface is always covered in an extremely thin and yet very strong layer of oxide film. It doesn't magnetise, it's a great electricity conductor and forms alloys with practically all other metals.

What are the stages of the life cycle of the sun
Jet001 [13]
The Sun is currently a main sequence star and will remain so for another 4-5 billion years. It will then expand and cool to become a red giant, after which it will shrink and heat up again to become a white dwarf. The white dwarf star will run out of nuclear fuel and slowly cool down over many billions of years.

What is the emperical formula of a compound containing 40.1% carbon and 6.6% hydrogen​
levacccp [35]

Answer:

CH₂

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Percentage composition:

          Carbon  = 40.1%

          Hydrogen  = 6.6%

Unknown:

Empirical formula of the compound  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a substance is its simplest formula.

 Elements                             Carbon                             Hydrogen

Percentage

Composition                           40.1                                     6.6

Molecular mass                        12                                         1

Number of moles                  40.1/12                                  6.6/1

                                                3.342                                    6.6

Divide through by

the smallest                         3.342/3.342                           6.6/3.342

                                                      1                                        2

So the empirical formula of the compound is CH₂

Amphetamine (C9H13N)(C9H13N) is a weak base with a pKbpKb of 4.2. You may want to reference (Pages 710 - 713) Section 16.8 while
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

pH = 10.38

Explanation:

  • C9H13N ↔ C9H20O3N+  +  OH-

∴ molar mass C9H13N = 135.21 g/mol

∴ pKb = - log Kb = 4.2

⇒ Kb = 6.309 E-5 = [OH-][C9H20O3N+] / [C9H13N]

∴ <em>C</em> sln = (205 mg/L )*(g/1000 mg)*(mol/135.21 g) = 1.516 E-3 M

mass balance:

⇒ <em>C</em> sln = 1.516 E-3 = [C9H20O3N+] + [C9H13N]......(1)

charge balance:

⇒ [C9H20O3N+] + [H3O+] = [OH-]; [H3O+] is neglected, come from water

⇒ [C9H20O3N+] = [OH-].......(2)

(2) in (1):

⇒ [C9H13N] = 1.516 E-3 - [OH-]

replacing in Kb:

⇒ Kb = 6.3096 E-5 = [OH-]² / (1.516 E-3 - [OH-])

⇒ [OH-]² + 6.3096 E-5[OH] - 7.26613 E-8 = 0

⇒ [OH-] = 2.3985 E-4 M

∴ pOH = - Log [OH-]

⇒ pOH = 3.62

⇒ pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 3.62 = 10.38
