Chemistry

Answer:

Carbon is the chemical backbone of life on Earth. Carbon compounds regulate the Earth’s temperature, make up the food that sustains us, and provide energy that fuels our global economy. Most of Earth’s carbon is stored in rocks and sediments. The rest is located in the ocean, atmosphere, and in living organisms. These are the reservoirs through which carbon cycles.The ocean plays a critical role in carbon storage, as it holds about 50 times more carbon than the atmosphere. Two-way carbon exchange can occur quickly between the ocean’s surface waters and the atmosphere, but carbon may be stored for centuries at the deepest ocean depths.

The biggest changes in the land carbon cycle are likely to come because of climate change. Carbon dioxide increases temperatures, extending the growing season and increasing humidity. Both factors have led to some additional plant growth. However, warmer temperatures also stress plants.

The daughter isotope  : Radon-222 (Rn-222).

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an  alpha decay

Required

The daughter nuclide

Solution

Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,  

  • alpha α particles ₂He⁴
  • beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
  • gamma particles ₀γ⁰
  • positron particles ₁e⁰
  • neutron ₀n¹

The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same

Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra

Alpha particles : ₂⁴He

So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴  , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4

The reaction :

₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn

B) How many kilojoules of heat will be released by the combustion of 22.52 g of this liquid at
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

You realize that C2H5OH releases -1277.3kJ/mol. We need to convert this to the amount based on the question. We that 22.52g of C2H5OH = 0.48884 mol.

This means that it will release (-1277.3)(0.48884) = 624.40 KJ of heat will be released. Note the negative sign is not necessary here (I think) because it says how much is released and not the change in heat of the system so it should be positive.

Why are the fruit and vegetable sections called the produce aisle?
QveST [7]
Fruits and vegetables are in the produce aisle because they are plants, and plants are producers.
Producers are organisms that create energy on their own through various processes depending on the organism.
