Answer:

A radioactive isotope, also known as a radioisotope, radionuclide, or radioactive nuclide, is any of several species of the same chemical element with different masses whose nuclei are unstable and dissipate excess energy by spontaneously emitting radiation in the form of alpha, beta, and gamma rays.

KCIO3 → KCI + O2

First you have to count all the atoms of each element in both sides of the reaction, in this case:
Left side: there is one K atom, one Cl atom and 3 O atoms
Right side: there is one K atom, one Cl atom and 2 O atoms

K and Cl are balanced but O isn't
To balance O you can add a coefficient to O2 in the right side of the equation like this:

KCIO3 → KCI +3 O2

Now you have 6 oxygen atoms in the right side but only 3 in the left side, so you can add a coefficient to KClO3:

2KCIO3 → KCI +3 O2

And finally, Balance K and Cl again by adding a 2 as a coefficient for KCl

2KCIO3 → 2KCI +3 O2

Now both sides have the same amount of atoms of each element (2 K atoms, 2 Cl atoms and 6 O atoms)

A hot metal is placed in 100.0 g sample of water and it causes the temperature of the water to increase from 25 C to 27 C. How m
Arisa [49]

Answer: 836.8\ J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of water in the sample is m=100\ g

Temperature changes from 25^{\circ}C to 27^{\circ}C

Change in temperature is \Delta T=27-25=2^{\circ}C\ \text{or}\ 2\ K

We know, specific heat of water is c=4.184\ J/g-K

Heat absorbed is given by

\Rightarrow Q=mc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow Q=100\times 4.184\times 2\\\Rightarrow Q=836.8\ J

Thus, water absorbs 836.8\ J of heat from hot plate.
