Answer:

In alpha decay, shown in Fig. 3-3, the nucleus emits a 4He nucleus, an alpha particle. Alpha decay occurs most often in massive nuclei that have too large a proton to neutron ratio. An alpha particle, with its two protons and two neutrons, is a very stable configuration of particles. Alpha radiation reduces the ratio of protons to neutrons in the parent nucleus, bringing it to a more stable configuration. Many nuclei more massive than lead decay by this method.

A 0.130 mole quantity of NiCl 2 is added to a liter of 1.20 M NH 3 solution. What is the concentration of Ni 2 + ions at equilib

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

A 0.130 mole quantity of NiCl₂ is added to a liter of 1.20 M NH₃ solution. What is the concentration of Ni²⁺ ions at equilibrium? Assume the formation constant of Ni(NH₃)₆²⁺ is 5.5 × 10⁸

Answer : The concentration of $Ni^{2+}$ ions at equilibrium is, $4.31\times 10^{-8}$

Explanation : Given,

Moles of $NiCl_2$ = 0.130 mol

Volume of solution = 1 L

$Concentration=\frac{Moles }{Volume}$

Concentration of $NiCl_2$ = Concentration of $Ni^{2+}$ = 0.130 M

Concentration of $NH_3$ = 1.20 M

$K_f=5.5\times 10^8$

The equilibrium reaction will be:

$Ni^{2+}(aq)+6NH_3(aq)\rightarrow [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}$

Initial conc. 0.130 1.20 0

At eqm. x [1.20-6(0.130)] 0.130

= 0.42

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

$K_f=\frac{[Ni(NH_3)_6^{2+}]}{[Ni^{2+}][NH_3]^6}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$5.5\times 10^8=\frac{(0.130)}{(x)\times (0.42)^6}$

$x=4.31\times 10^{-8}$

Thus, the concentration of $Ni^{2+}$ ions at equilibrium is, $4.31\times 10^{-8}$

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does an atom with atomic number 50 and a mass number of 125 contain?

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

a) 50 protons, 50 electrons, 75 neutrons

Explanation:

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does an atom with atomic number 50 and a mass number of 125 contain?

a) 50 protons, 50 electrons, 75 trons

b) 75 electrons, 50 protons, 50 neutrons

c) 120 neutrons, 50 protons, 75 electrons

atomic number IS the number of protons

atomic mass IS the total of protons + neutrons

so 50 protons

125-50 = 75 neutrons

in a neutral atom,

number of negative electrons = number of positive protons

a) 50 protons, 50 electrons, 75 neutrons
