A sample of an ionic compound containing iron and chlorine is analyzed and found to have a molar mass of 126.8 g/mol. what is th
julsineya [31]
Answer is: <span>the charge of the iron in this compound is +2.
Atomic mass of iron is 55,8 g/mol.
Atomic mass of chlorine is 35,5 g/mol.
If compound is FeCl, molar mass would be 55,8 </span>g/mol + 35,5 g/mol = 91,3 g/mo, that is not correct.
If compound is FeCl₂, malar mass of compound would be:
55,8 g/mol + 2·35,5 g/mol = 126,8 g/mol, that is correct.
Oxaidation number of chlorine is -1.

Pu is a nuclear waste byproduct with a half-life of 24,000 y. What fraction of the 239Pu present today will be present in 1000 y
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

0.9715 Fraction of Pu-239 will be remain after 1000 years.

Explanation:

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

A=A_o\times e^{-\lambda t}

Where:

\lambda= decay constant

A_o =concentration left after time t

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = Half life of the sample

Half life of Pu-239 = t_{\frac{1}{2}}=24,000 y[

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{24,000 y}=2.8875\times 10^{-5} y^{-1]

Let us say amount present of  Pu-239 today = A_o=x

A = ?

A=x\times e^{-2.8875\times 10^{-5} y^{-1]\times 1000 y}

A=0.9715\times x

\frac{A}{A_0}=\frac{A}{x}=0.9715

0.9715 Fraction of Pu-239 will be remain after 1000 years.

Which subatomic particle gives off visible light when it drops back down to a lower energy state?
icang [17]

Answer:

Option C = electron

Explanation:

Electrons are responsible for the production of colored light.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

How electrons produce the colored light:

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.

Other process may involve,

Fluorescence:

In fluorescence the energy is absorbed by the electron having shorter wavelength and high energy usually of U.V region. The process of absorbing the light occur in a very short period of time i.e. 10 ∧-15 sec. During the fluorescence the spin of electron not changed.

The electron is then de-excited by emitting the light in visible and IR region. This process of de-excitation occur in a time period of 10∧-9 sec.

Phosphorescence:

In phosphorescence the electron also goes to the excitation to the higher level by absorbing the U.V radiations. In case of Phosphorescence the transition back to the lower energy level occur very slowly and the spin pf electron also change.
