Answer:

Beryllium-8 (8Be, Be-8) is a radionuclide with 4 neutrons and 4 protons. It is an unbound resonance and nominally an isotope of beryllium. It decays into two alpha particles with a half-life on the order of 10−16 seconds; this has important ramifications in stellar nucleosynthesis as it creates a bottleneck in the creation of heavier chemical elements. The properties of 8Be have also led to speculation on the fine tuning of the Universe, and theoretical investigations on cosmological evolution had 8Be been stable.

Ionization energy is a measure of the ability of atoms to attract electrons within a bond. True False

Xelga [282]

Answer:

The correct option is False

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the <em>minimum amount of energy required to remove a valence electron from one mole of an atom in it's gaseous state</em>. Ionization energy requires the removal of an electron from a gaseous atom. The definition in the question is that of electronegativity.

Electronegativity is the <u>ability of an atom to attract electrons towards itself in a chemical bond.</u>

The effectiveness of a chemical sanitizer can be limited by

Serjik [45]

Chemical sanitizer effectiveness, decreases with increase in pH . And most soap and detergent are alkaline in nature, that limits its effectiveness. So they should be rinsed off completely for proper effectiveness of santizer. So improper rinsing limits the effectiveness of a sanitizer.

So , the answer is improper rinsing after that still a detergent residue remains limits the effectiveness of sanitizer.

An unknown liquid is composed of 34.31% c, 5.28% h, and 60.41% i. The molecular weight is 210.06 amu. What is the molecular form

ozzi

In an unknown liquid, the percentage composition with respect to carbon, hydrogen and iodine is 34.31%, 5.28% and 60.41% respectively.

Let the mass of liquid be 100 g thus, mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen will be 34.31 g, 5.28 g and 60.41 g respectively.

To calculate molecular formula of compound, convert mass into number of moles as follows:

$n=\frac{m}{M}$

Molar mass of carbon, hydrogen and iodine is 12 g/mol, 1 g/mol and 126.90 g/mol.

Taking the ratio:

$C:H:I=n_{C}:n_{H}:n_{I}$

Putting the values,

$C:H:I=\frac{34.31 g}{12 g/mol}:\frac{5.28 g}{1 g/mol}:\frac{60.41 g}{126.90 g/mol}=6:11:1$

Thus, molecular formula of compound will be $C_{6}H_{11}I$ .

in a mixture of 1.90 mol of gas, 0.85 mol are nitrogen (n2) molecules. what is the mole fraction of n2 in this mixture?

Nostrana [21]

0.447 is the mole fraction of Nitrogen in this mixture.

mole fraction of nitrogen= moles of nitrogen/total moles

mole fraction of nitrogen=0.85/1.90

mole fraction of nitrogen=0.447

The product of the moles of a component and the total moles of the solution yields a mole fraction, which is a unit of concentration measurement. Because it is a ratio, mole fraction is a unitless statement. The sum of the components of the mole fraction of a solution is one. In a mixture of 1 mol benzene, 2 mol carbon tetrachloride, and 7 mol acetone, the mole fraction of the acetone is 0.7. This is computed by dividing the sum of the moles of acetone in the solution by the total number of moles of the solution's constituents:
