Answer:

8.46

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

Also, atomic number of I = 549

Thus, the number of protons = 49

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

105 =  49 + Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 56

Mass of neutron = 1.008665 amu

Mass of proton = 1.007825 amu

Calculated mass = Number of protons*Mass of proton + Number of neutrons*Mass of neutron

Thus,

Calculated mass = (49*1.007825 + 56*1.008665) amu = 105.868665 amu

Mass defect = Δm = |105.868665 - 104.914558| amu = 0.954107 amu

The conversion of amu to MeV is shown below as:-

1 amu = 931.5 MeV

<u>So, Energy = 0.954107*931.5 MeV/atom = 888.750671 MeV/atom</u>

Also, 1 atom has 105 nucleons (Protons+neutrons)

<u>So, Energy = 888.750671 MeV/105nucleons = 8.46 MeV/nucleon</u>

<u>Answer:- 8.46</u>

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The answer to your question is   P2 = 0.78 atm

Explanation:

Data

Temperature 1 = T1 = 263°K                 Temperature 2 = T2 = 298°K

Volume 1 = V1 = 24 L                             Volume 2 = V2 = 35 L

Pressure 1 = P1 = 1                                  Pressure 2 = P2 = ?

Process

1.- To solve this problem use the Combined gas law

                          P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

-Solve for P2

                           P2 = P1V1T2 / T1V2

-Substitution

                          P2 = (1)(24)(298) / (263)(35)

-Simplification

                          P2 = 7152 / 9205

-Result

                          P2 = 0.777

   or                    P2 = 0.78 atm
