The original radioisotope underwent double-alpha decay, where the original nucleus lost a total of 4 protons and 4 neutrons.

The original radioisotope would have an atomic number of 86+4 (protons), and would have an atomic mass of 222+8 (protons + neutrons). This would make the element Thorium-230, or 90Th230.

A 5.00g of X, the product of organic synthesis is obtained in a 1.0 dm3 aqueous solution. Calculate the mass of X that can be ex
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

mass of X extracted from the aqueous solution by 50 cm³ of ethoxy ethane = 3.33 g

Explanation:

The partition coefficient of X between ethoxy ethane (ether) and water, K is given by the formula

K = concentration of X in ether/concentration of X in water

Partition coefficient, K(X) between ethoxy ethane and water = 40

Concentration of X in ether = mass(g)/volume(dm³)

Mass of X in ether = m g

Volume of ether = 50/1000 dm³ = 0.05 dm³

Concentration of X in ether = (m/0.05) g/dm³

Concentration of X in water = mass(g)/volume(dm³)

Mass of X in water left after extraction with ether = (5 - m) g

Volume of water = 1 dm³

Concentration of X in water = (5 - m/1) g/dm³

Using K = concentration of X in ether/concentration of X in water;

40 = (m/0.05)/(5 - m)

(m/0.05) = 40 × (5 - m)

(m/0.05) = 200 - 40m

m = 0.05 × (200 - 40m)

m = 10 - 2m

3m = 10

m = 10/3

m = 3.33 g of X

Therefore, mass of X extracted from the aqueous solution by 50 cm³ of ethoxy ethane = 3.33 g

12. If a solution has a pH of 3, what would the pOH value of that solution be? *
butalik [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is pOH= 11

Explanation:

From the aqueous acid-base equilibrium we know that

pH + pOH = 14

If we know pH, we can calculate pOH as follows:

pOH = 14 - pH

In this problem, the solution has a pH of 3, so:

pOH = 14 - 3 = 11
