Based on N:Z ratio, Zr-85 is expected to decay by positron emission. Zr-95 is expected to emit beta particles in a beta decay.

The N:Z ratio determines the stability of a nucleus. If a nucleus has  N:Z ratio >1.5 or <1.0, such a nucleus is unstable and will undergo radioactive decay. The aim of such a decay is to attain a favorable  N:Z ratio.

For Zr -85, the  N:Z ratio is 1.1 while the  N:Z ratio of Zr-95 is 1.4.  Zr -85 is expected to decay by positron emission which increases the N:Z ratio. For  Zr-95, the nucleus tends to undergo processes that decrease the  N:Z ratio such as beta emission.

The osmotic pressure of a solution formed by dissolving 75.0 mg of aspirin (c9h8o4) in 0.250 l of water at 25 °c is ________ atm
Igoryamba

Answer is: the osmotic pressure of aqueous solution of aspirin is 0.0407 atm.

m(C₉H₈O₄) = 75 mg ÷ 1000 mg/g = 0.075 g.

n(C₉H₈O₄) = 0.075 g ÷ 180.16 g/mol.

n(C₉H₈O₄) = 0.000416 mol.

c(C₉H₈O₄) = 0.000416 mol ÷ 0.250 L.

c(C₉H₈O₄) = 0.00167 M; concentration of solution.

T(C₉H₈O₄) = 25°C = 298.15 K; temperature in Kelvins.

R = 0.08206 L•atm/mol•K; universal gas constant.

π = c(C₉H₈O₄) • T(C₉H₈O₄) • R.

π = 0.00167 mol/L • 298.15 K • 0.08206 L•atm/mol•K.

π = 0.0407 atm.
