The radius of the anion is 7.413 nm

<h3>How to calculate the force of attraction between charges</h3>

The force of attraction (F) is given by the formula:

  • F = (1/4π∈r²)(Zc*e)(Za*e)

where:

∈ = permittivity of free space = 8.85*10⁻¹⁵ F/m

Zc = charge on the cation = +2

Zc = charge on the anion = -2

e = charge on an electron = 1.602 * 10⁻¹⁹ C

r = interionic distance

r = rc + ra

where rc and ra are the radius of the cation and anion respectively

F = 1.64 * 10⁻⁸ N

Therefore based on the equation of force of attraction:

1.64 *10⁻⁸ = [1/4π(8.85*10⁻¹⁵)r²](2 * 1.602*10⁻¹⁹)²

r² = 5.63 * 10⁻¹⁷

r = 7.50 nm

Since r = rc + ra

where rc = 0.087 nm

thus, ra = r - rc = 7.50 - 0.087

ra = 7.413 nm

Therefore, the radius of the anion is 7.413 nm

How was president Andrew Jackson wrong for closing the bank
Paladinen [302]
Jackson, the epitome of the frontiersman, resented the bank's lack of funding for expansion into the unsettled Western territories. Jackson also objected to the bank's unusual political and economic power and to the lack of congressional oversight over its business dealings.

What is the most important role that water plays for living organisms
LuckyWell [14K]

-well, we all need water as living organisms in order to live. water helps us clean our body (just like you clean yourself in a shower to clean your skin),but drinking water helps you to take a shower inside your body! (sounds weird but true XD) you get the point... here are a few things water does to our body:

- water helps helps our skin to look beautiful (you can say youthful skin) and even beauty itself.

- it trashes body waste and toxins (like i said above)

- it gives us nutrients and minerals

- it helps us to maintain out blood pressure

- it also helps to regulate our body temperature

- it transfers oxygen through the whole body

- it helps with digestion

-  weigh loss

- gives you energy ( thats why when your exercising you need to drink water every 15 min XD)

-prevents from you have a stinky breath *-*

- it helps with back-pain, headaches, heart health...etc

- it helps boost your immune system

- increases your brain power

so those are what i got for you about why water is important to us  :D

What is the energy released in this β − β − nuclear reaction 40 19 K → 40 20 C a + 0 − 1 e 19 40 K → 20 40 C a + − 1 0 e ? (The
Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given nuclear reaction:

_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}\rightarrow _{20}^{40}\textrm{Ca}+_{-1}^{0}\textrm{e}

We are given:

Mass of _{19}^{40}\textrm{K} = 39.963998 u

Mass of _{20}^{40}\textrm{Ca} = 39.962591 u

To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:

\Delta m=\text{Mass of reactants}-\text{Mass of products}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta m=(39.963998-39.962591)=0.001407u

To calculate the energy released, we use the equation:

E=\Delta mc^2\\E=(0.001407u)\times c^2

E=(0.001407u)\times (931.5MeV)    (Conversion factor:  1u=931.5MeV/c^2  )

E=1.3106MeV

Hence, the energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.

What is the net ionic equation for the reaction<br> ofFeCl3 and KOH in water?
Levart [38]

Answer:

Fe³⁺(aq) + 3 OH⁻(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s)

Explanation:

First, we will write the molecular equation because it is the easiest to balance.

FeCl₃(aq) + 3 KOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + 3 KCl(aq)

The full ionic equation includes all the ions and the molecular species.

Fe³⁺(aq) + 3 Cl⁻(aq) + 3 K⁺(aq) + 3 OH⁻(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + 3 K⁺(aq) + 3 Cl⁻(aq)

The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and the molecular species.

Fe³⁺(aq) + 3 OH⁻(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s)
