Answer:
- <u><em>1.7 × 10³ kg of ore.</em></u>
Explanation:
Call X the amount of aluminum ore mined to produce 1.0 × 10³ kg the aluminum metal.
Then, taking into account the yield of the reaction (82 % = 0.82) and the percent of aluminun in the ore (71% = 0.71), you can write the following equation:
- X × 71% × 82% = 1.0 × 10³ kg
↑ ↑ ↑ ↑
(mass of ore) (% of Al in the ore) (yield) ( Al metal to obtain)
You must just simplify, solve and compute:
- X = 1,000 / (0.71 × 0.82) = 1,000 / 0.5822 = 1,717.6 Kg
Round to two significant figures; 1,700 kg = 1.7 × 10³ kg of ore ← answer.
<u>¹⁴₇N</u><u> </u>is the more stable isotope
<h3>
Briefly explained</h3>
We have ¹⁴₇N which has a neutron to proton ratio of one, and we look at ¹⁸₇N which has a neutron to proton ratio of 1.57 Again, you look at table 24 to and you see the atomic number of seven and there is really no stable isotope. It has any more than 10 neutrons.
When we have eight, protons will go down seven protons. There's really nothing stable that has more than maybe eight neutrons. So the fact that we have 11 neutrons with ¹⁸₇N suggests that this is very unstable and
¹⁴₇N is the stable isotope of the pair.
<h3>
Stable and Unstable Nuclei</h3>
An atom is electrically neutral. It contains an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons and their charges balance. The nucleus however contains only positively charged protons which are closely packed together in a very small volume (remember neutrons have no charge).
From the laws of physics (Coulomb’s Law) one would expect that the protons being of the same charge and so close together would exert strong repulsive forces on each other. The combined gravitational force from the protons and neutrons in a nucleus is insignificant as an attractive force because their masses are so tiny.
This implies there must be an additional attractive force similar in size to the electrostatic repulsion which holds the nucleus together.

<u>Answer:</u> 3 neutrons are produced in the above nuclear reaction.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.
The nuclear reaction for the fission of Americium-244 isotope follows:
<u>To calculate Y:</u>
Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
Hence, 3 neutrons are produced in the above nuclear reaction.
should be clear acid if im not mistaken
