Cuál es la característica principal para que un elemento sea radiactivo?

Definimos la radiactividad como el proceso mediante el cual un núcleo inestable pierde energia mediante emisiones (puede emitir fotones, neutrones, etc.)

Así, la característica princpial es que el elemento debe ser inestable.

-------------------------------------

Cuando tenemos un elemento inestable, lo que puede deberse a que el elemento tiene un núcleo muy grande, o a que el elemento por alguna razón tiene muchos neutrones, este elemento querrá de alguna manera volver a un estado más estable.

Usualmente, la inestabilidad se ve representada como un dado exceso de energía, entonces la forma en la que el átomo se estabiliza es liberando energía de alguna forma.

Esta energía puede ser liberada mediante una desintegración, donde el elemento original se convierte en otros elementos y en el proceso se liberan nucleones, o por emisiones de fotones característicos del elemento, o de otras diversas formas que dependerán del caso particular.

Concluyendo la idea, para que un elemento sea radiactivo (es decir, emite radiación) la característica  que este elemento debe tener es que debe ser inestable.

One way to refine iron from iron ore is to heat the ore with hydrogen gas at high temperatures. Which change increases the amoun
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: Adding Hydrogen Gas

Explanation:

The Reduction Reaction that occurs during the refinement of Iron Ore is as follows:

Fe_3O_4 + H_2  -> 3FeO + H_2O\\\\FeO + H_2   -> Fe + H_2O

Since Hydrogen Gas is a reactant in the equation with Iron ore , adding more hydrogen gas will shift the reaction toward the right side, increase the amount of  refined iron produced.

HI decomposes to H2 and I2 by the following equation: 2HI(g) → H2(g) + I2(g);Kc = 1.6 × 10−3 at 25∘C If 1.0 M HI is placed into
omeli [17]

Answer:

(B) 0.038 M

Explanation:

Kc = [H2][I2]/[HI]^2

Let the equilibrium concentration of H2 be y M

From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of H2 to I2 formed is 1:1, therefore equilibrium concentration of I2 is also y M

Also, from the equation of reaction, mole ratio of HI consumed to H2 formed is 2:1, therefore equilibrium concentration of HI is (1 - 2y) M

1.6×10^-3 = y×y/(1 - 2y)^2

y^2/1-4y+4y^2 = 0.0016

y^2 = 0.0016(1-4y+4y^2)

y^2 = 0.0016 - 0.0064y + 0.0064y^2

y^2-0.0064y^2+0.0064y-0.0016 = 0

0.9936y^2 + 0.0064y - 0.0016 = 0

The value of y must be positive and is obtained by using the quadratic formula

y = [-0.0064 + sqrt(0.0064^2 - 4×0.9936×-0.0016)] ÷ 2(0.9936) = 0.0736 ÷ 1.9872 = 0.038 M

A certain amount of gas is trapped in a nonrigid container at atmospheric pressure. If the container is cooled and the gas in th
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

D. The volume of the container will decrease.

Explanation:

  • We apply here, the general gas law of ideal gases:

<em>PV = nRT,</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the container.

n is the no. of moles of the gas.

R is the general gas constant.

T is the temperature of the gas.

  • We are given that P is constant.

Also, n is constant as there is no added external gases.

T is decreased as the container is cooled.

So, the volume will change as the container is nonrigid.

<em>V α T.</em>

The volume is directly proportional to the temperature,

<em>Thus, as the container is cooled, the T will decrease, and the volume of the container will decrease.</em>
