The mass defect for the isotope thorium-234 if given mass is 234.04360 amu is 1.85864 amu.
<h3>How do we calculate atomic mass?</h3>
Atomic mass (A) of any atom will be calculated as:
A = mass of protons + mass of neutrons
In the Thorium-234:
Number of protons = 90
Number of neutrons = 144
Mass of one proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of one neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass of thorium-234 = 90(1.00728) + 144(1.00866)
Mass of thorium-234 = 90.6552 + 145.24704 = 235.90224 amu
Given mass of thorium-234 = 234.04360 amu
Mass defect = 235.90224 - 234.04360 = 1.85864 amu
Hence required value is 1.85864 amu.

The correct answer is option A. Energy cannot be created during an ordinary chemical reaction. There is no such thing as an ordinary chemical reaction. Energy cannot be created or destroyed this is according to the law of conservation of energy. It can only be transformed from one form to another form.
Answer:Hydrogen is placed such because it exhibits some similar characteristics of both group1 and group VII elements.
Explanation:
The reason why hydrogen is similar to group 1 metals:
#It has same valence electron and inorder achieve octet state it can lose that electron and forms H+ ion
#It acts as a good reducing agent similar to group1 metals
#It can also halides
Similarity to halogens:
#hydrogen can also gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration. It can combine with other non metals to form molecules with covalent bonding.
#It exists as diatomin molecule,H2
#Have the same electronegativity nature
#its reaction with other metal
Answer: The mass of lead deposited on the cathode of the battery is 1.523 g.
Explanation:
Given: Current = 62.0 A
Time = 23.0 sec
Formula used to calculate charge is as follows.
where,
Q = charge
I = current
t = time
Substitute the values into above formula as follows.
It is known that 1 mole of a substance tends to deposit a charge of 96500 C. Therefore, number of moles obtained by 1426 C of charge is as follows.
The oxidation state of Pb in 
is 2. So, moles deposited by Pb is as follows.
It is known that molar mass of lead (Pb) is 207.2 g/mol. Now, mass of lead is calculated as follows.
Thus, we can conclude that the mass of lead deposited on the cathode of the battery is 1.523 g.
