The nuclear reaction occurring is known as alpha-decay, and during this process, an alpha particle is released from a heavy radioactive nucleus to form a lighter more stable nucleus. The alpha particle is equivalent to a helium nucleus, which means it contains 2 protons and two neutrons (net charge of +2)
The decay equation is:
Rn → Po + α

-Purpose/Question
Ask a question.
-Research
Conduct background research. Write down your sources so you can cite your references. In the modern era, a lot of your research may be conducted online. Scroll to the bottom of articles to check the references. Even if you can't access the full text of a published article, you can usually view the abstract to see the summary of other experiments. Interview experts on a topic. The more you know about a subject, the easier it will be to conduct your investigation.
-Hypothesis
Propose a hypothesis. This is a sort of educated guess about what you expect. It is a statement used to predict the outcome of an experiment. Usually, a hypothesis is written in terms of cause and effect. Alternatively, it may describe the relationship between two phenomena. One type of hypothesis is the null hypothesis or the no-difference hypothesis. This is an easy type of hypothesis to test because it assumes changing a variable will have no effect on the outcome. In reality, you probably expect a change but rejecting a hypothesis may be more useful than accepting one.
-Experiment
Design and perform an experiment to test your hypothesis. An experiment has an independent and dependent variable. You change or control the independent variable and record the effect it has on the dependent variable. It's important to change only one variable for an experiment rather than try to combine the effects of variables in an experiment. For example, if you want to test the effects of light intensity and fertilizer concentration on the growth rate of a plant, you're really looking at two separate experiments.
-Data/Analysis
Record observations and analyze the meaning of the data. Often, you'll prepare a table or graph of the data. Don't throw out data points you think are bad or that don't support your predictions. Some of the most incredible discoveries in science were made because the data looked wrong! Once you have the data, you may need to perform a mathematical analysis to support or refute your hypothesis.
-Conclusion
Conclude whether to accept or reject your hypothesis. There is no right or wrong outcome to an experiment, so either result is fine. Accepting a hypothesis does not necessarily mean it's correct! Sometimes repeating an experiment may give a different result. In other cases, a hypothesis may predict an outcome, yet you might draw an incorrect conclusion. Communicate your results. The results may be compiled into a lab report or formally submitted as a paper. Whether you accept or reject the hypothesis, you likely learned something about the subject and may wish to revise the original hypothesis or form a new one for a future experiment.
Answer:
molar mass of methane CH4
= C + 4 H
= 12.0 + 4 x 1.008
= 12.0 + 4.032
= 16.042g/mol
7.31 x 10^25 molecules x 1 mole CH4 = 121.43 moles
6.02 x 10^23 CH4 molecules
121.43 moles CH4 are present.
Explanation:
not to certain if this is right or not.. but hope it helps!
Answer:
Theoretical yield of C6H10 = 3.2 g.
Explanation:
Defining Theoretical yield as the quantity of product obtained from the complete conversion of the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction. It can be expressed as grams or moles.
Equation of the reaction
C6H11OH --> C6H10 + H2O
Moles of C6H11OH:
Molar mass of C6H110H = (12*6) + (1*12) + 16
= 100 g/mol
Mass of C6H10 = 3.8 g
number of moles = mass/molar mass
=3.8/100
= 0.038 mol.
Using stoichoimetry, 1 moles of C6H110H was dehydrated to form 1 mole of C6H10 and 1 mole of water.
Therefore, 0.038 moles of C6H10 was produced.
Mass of C6H10 = molar mass * number of moles
Molar mass of C6H10 = (12*6) + (1*10)
= 82 g/mol.
Mass = 82 * 0.038
= 3.116 g of C6H10.
Theoretical yield of C6H10 = 3.2 g
1 mole Fe produces 1 mole Cu
