Why is beryllium-8 different from beryllium-9 in terms of the nuclear particles?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Helen [10]3 years ago
6 0

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.

Differ B/w reducing and oxidizing smog?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Smog can be classified as two types. They are

Oxidizing smog

Reducing smog

Oxidizing smog:

The smog which has the property of high concentration of oxidizing agents is known as oxidizing smog. Oxidizing smog can also known as photochemical smog.

Example: Ozone.

Reducing smog:

The smog which has high concentration of sulfur Dioxide is known as reducing smog.Photochemical smog which is very dangerous is called oxidizing smog because it consists of the oxidizing agent ozone.......the other one is reducing smog which consists of reducing agent sulphurdioxide.

Bromophenol blue is the indicator used in detecting the endpoint for the antacid analysis in this experiment. what is the expect
Paul [167]
Hello!

For the antacid analysis, the chemical reactions that occur in the titration are the following ones:

First, the antacid (composed of weak bases and carbonates) is completely neutralized by the H⁺ ions in the HCl

2HCl + CaCO₃ → CO₂ + H₂O + 2CaCl₂

HCl + OH⁻ → H₂O + Cl⁻

The titration reaction consists in titrating the excess H⁺ ions that are left in the solution, by the following reaction:

H⁺ + NaOH → H₂O + Na⁺

So, when the equivalence point is reached, the solution will go from acid to basic. As bromophenol blue is yellow in acidic solution and blue in basic solution, you'll expect the indicator to change from yellow to blue.

Have a nice day!

Suppose a new group 5A element is discovered. Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) reveals that its last two peaks occur at 1370 kJ/
iren2701 [21]

Answer: The average valence electron energy (AVEE) of this element =

1014.2 KJ/ mol  or  1.0142mJ/mol.

Explanation:

The average valence electron energy =  (number of electrons in s subshell  x  Ionization energy of that subshell) + (number of electrons in p subshell  x  Ionization energy of that subshell) / total number of electrons in both subshells of the valence shells.

The 5A elements are non-metals like Nitrogen and Phosphorus with the metallic character increasing as you go down the group, So a new 5A element will have characteristics of its group with 5 valence electron in its outermost shell represented as ns2 np3

Therefore  the average valence electron energy (AVEE) of this element will be calculated as

The average valence electron energy = (2 x 1370  kJ/mol + 3 x 777 kJ/mol.) / 5

2740+2331/ 5 =5071/5

=1014.2 KJ/ mol  or  1.0142mJ/mol.
