Answer:

Transmutation is the conversion of an atom of one element into an atom of a different element through nuclear changes.

An alpha particle is a particle composed of 2 protons and 3 neutrons. It results from transmutation because of the change in protons in a large nucleus.

A chemical equation is balanced accord to the number of atoms of each element before and after the change. This is also shows the Law of Conservation of Matter.

A nuclear equation is balanced according to mass number and charge (atomic number). These equations can’t be balanced like chemical equations because the identities of the atoms can change.  On the left of equation, the top number is the atomic mass and the bottom number is the atomic number. Take note that if you add the atomic mass (top number), you’ll get the the atomic mass of of the atom pre-transmutation. Same applies with atomic number. This shows a balanced nuclear equation.

The atomic number is the number of protons in a nucleus. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in a nucleus. Electrons have very small masses, so they are not accounted in atomic mass.

A sample of 14.5 g of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) was dissolved in 100 ml of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter with no lid by th
Ann [662]

Answer:

The ΔH of the reaction is + 12.45 KJ/mol

Explanation:

Mass of water= 100ml = 100g. (You should always assume 1cm3 of water as 1g)

heat capacity of water = 4.18 Jk-1 Mol-1

Change in temperature = (19.86 - 25.00) = -5.14 K (This is an endothermic reaction because of the fall in temperature)

Molar mass of NaHCO3 = 84 g/mol

Mole of NaHCO3 = 14.5 / 84 = 0.173 mol

Step 1 : Calculate the heat energy (Q) lost by the water.

            Q = M x C x ΔT

            Q = -100 x 4.18 x (-5.14)

            Q = 2148.5 joules

            Q = 2.1485 K J

Step 2: Calculating the ΔH of the reaction?

          ΔH = Q / number of moles of NaHCO3

          ΔH = 2.1485 / 0.173

          ΔH = 12.42 KJ/mol

1. When an acid reacts with a base, what compounds are formed? (1 point) a salt only water only metal oxides only a salt and wat
scoundrel [369]

Answer: 1) only a salt and water

An acid and base reacts together to undergo neutralization to form salt and water.

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

where HCl is an acid and NaOH is a base to form salt (NaCl) and water (H_2O).

Answer: 2) The formula of the hydrogen ion is often written as H^+.

All acids dissociate in water to give  H^+ ions.

Answer: 3) Arrhenius acids are substances that ionizes to yield protons in aqueous solution.

HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-

Arrhenius bases are substance that ionizes to yield hydroxide ions in aqueous solution.

NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-

Answer: 4) A conjugate acid base pair  transfers hydrogen ion.

CH_3COO^-+H_2O\rightarrow CH_3COOH+H_3O^+

Here CH_3COO^- accepts a proton and thus act as a base and the corresponding CH_3COOH is its conjugate acid.

Answer: 5) Bronsted Lowry acid is a substance that donates protons.  Bronsted Lowry base is a substance that accepts protons.

NH_4^+ and NH_3

NH_3+H^+\rightarrow NH_4^+

NH_3 is a acid which accepts proton and thus acts as base to form conjugate acid NH_4^+.

Which of the following reactions could be used to extract the lead from the lead nitrate?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Option b. Decomposition

Followed by a reduction process using charcoal

Explanation:

Lead can be obtained from lead nitrate by thermal decomposition of lead nitrate as shown below:

2Pb(NO3)2 —> 2PbO + 4NO2 + O2

The PbO obtained is reduced by charcoal(C) to obtain the metallic Pb as shown below:

2PbO + C —> Pb + CO2
