Which statement best describes alpha decay?(1 point)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Veseljchak [2.6K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

After the ejection of an alpha particle, the remaining nucleus has a mass number that is four less and an atomic number that is two less, so alpha decay is a type of nuclear fission.

Answer:

3.07 Cal/g

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the heat absorbed by the calorimeter

We will use the following expression.

Q = C × ΔT

where,

  • Q: heat absorbed
  • C: heat capacity of the calorimeter (37.60 kJ/K = 37.60 kJ/°C)
  • ΔT: temperature change (2.29 °C)

Q = 37.60 kJ/°C × 2.29 °C = 86.1 kJ

According to the law of conservation of energy, the heat released by the candy has the same magnitude as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter.

Step 2: Convert 86.1 kJ to Cal

We will use the conversion factor 1 Cal = 4.186 kJ.

86.1 kJ × 1 Cal/4.186 kJ = 20.6 Cal

Step 3: Calculate the number of Cal per gram of candy

20.6 Cal/6.70 g = 3.07 Cal/g

How does a change in frequency or amplitude change the sound we hear
suter [353]
<span>Pitch is sometimes defined as the fundamental frequency of a sound wave (i.e. generally, the lowest frequency in a given sound wave). For most practical purposes, this is fine, and pitch and frequency can be thought of as equivalent. On the other hand, for most practical purposes, amplitude can be thought of as volume.However, technically, pitch (and volume) are human perceptions. Thus, our perception of pitch and volume are not solely based on frequency and amplitude respectively, but are based on a combination of both (and even other factors). Frequency overwhelming dictates perceived pitch, but amplitude also does have some small, small effect on our pitch perception, especially when it is very large. For example, a very loud sound can have a different <span>perceived </span>pitch than you would predict from its frequency alone.That all being said, usually these effects are negligible, and pitch can be thought of as equivalent to fundamental frequency.

What is the ph of a solution that has a poh of 11.24
galina1969 [7]
Always remember that pH + pOH = 14 
Here, you have a pOH of 11.24, so  you replace it in the equation, and u get:
pH + 11.24 = 14

Then, You move 11.24 to the other part. and moving from a part to another change the sign of the equation. And you get:
pH = 14 - 11.24 = 2.76

So, the pH of a solution that has a pOH of 11.24 is pH = 2.76

Hope this Helps :)
