As the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus increases, elements are much less likely to form stable, non-radioactive is

otopes. of elements that form non-radioactive isotopes, which has the highest atomic number?

<span>The answer is iron. Iron has an atomic number of 26. This means than iron has 26 protons in it's nucleus. However, not all iron atoms have the same number of neutrons. Most commonly iron has 30 neutrons, but it also has 3 other stable isotopes. The word stable is important here because unstable elements are radioactive.</span>

Explain whether each of the possible reactions listed below will occur. For those that will, predict what the products will be.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Zn(s) + 2H₂O (l) → Zn(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)

Sn(s) + O2(g) →SnO2(s)

Cd(s) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq) →Cd(NO3)2 (aq) + Pb(s)

Cu (s) + HCl(aq) → can not occur

Explanation:

Metals reacts with liquid water to yield the corresponding metallic hydroxide and hydrogen gas as shown above; Zn(s) + 2H₂O (l) → Zn(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)

Tin reacts with oxygen to yield tin (IV) oxide. This is an oxidation reaction as shown; Sn(s) + O2(g) →SnO2(s)

The reaction between Cd and Pb(NO3)2 is a single replacement reaction. It is possible because Cd is above Pb in the electrochemical series. Hence the reaction occurs thus; Cd(s) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq) →Cd(NO3)2 (aq) + Pb(s)

Copper does not displace hydrogen from dilute acids (such as HCl) since copper is lower than hydrogen in the electrochemical series hence the reaction does  not occur.

A truck is moving at the rate of 40 km/hr. How far does it move when it stops after 5 seconds?
seraphim [82]
First of all, this is the chemistry section, while your question is a physics question. Anyway I'll tell you how to solve it.

First we need to find the rate that the truck moves in a second.

1km = 1000m
40km = 40000m
40000m/hr
1 hour = 60 minutes
40000m/hr ÷ 60 = 666.66(repeating)/minute
1 minute = 60 seconds
666.66m/min ÷ 60 = 11.11(rep)m/s

Next we simply multiply the speed of the truck by the number of seconds it travels.

11.11 × 5 = 55.55
Make sure to round it unless you indicate the repeating decimal.
The truck moved 55.56m in 5 seconds.
