Boron occurs naturally as two isotopes. What is the difference between these isotopes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Murrr4er [49]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Number of neutrons and stability

Explanation:

An isotope of an element is basically the same element but with different number of neutrons. For example here, boron can exist in the forms of boron-10 and boron-11, and so the latter would have one more neutron than the former one.

Adding an extra neutron may or may not disrupt the strong force that much, and so the half-life and stability of the new isotope can be slightly different than its most stable one.

The balanced combustion reaction for C₆H₆

2C₆H₆(l)+15O₂(g)⇒ 12CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l)  +6542 kJ

MW C₆H₆ : 78.11 g/mol

mol C₆H₆ :

\tt \dfrac{8.5}{78.11}=0.109

Heat released for 2 mol C₆H₆ =6542 kJ, so for 1 mol

\tt \dfrac{0.109}{2}\times 6542=356.539~kJ/mol

Heat transferred to water :

Q=m.c.ΔT

\tt 356.539=5.691~kg\times 4.18~kj/kg^oC\times (t_2-21)\\\\t_2-21=15\rightarrow t_2=36^oC

A total solar eclipse occurs because the moon can totally block the sun. If the moon was smaller or farther from earth, a total
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

both

Explanation:

id say that it could occur but also not as much. the moon would be smaller and further from the earth to where we would barely be able to see it. if the full moon is barely visible then im sure the total solar eclipse wouldn't be as noticeable as it is now. but thats just my opinion

A property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed and does not change the identity of the substance. T/F
Murljashka [212]
The correct answer is false. The statement given does not describe a property in general. However, it speaks of a specific type of property which is the physical property.  This property is the one that does not change the identity of a substance. A property can also be a chemical property where the identity of a substance is changed.

What expression approximates the volume of O2 consumed, measure at STP, when 55 g of Al reacts completely with excess O2?2 Al(s)
nikdorinn [45]

Answer : The volume of O_2 consumed are, 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 L.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

4Al(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3(s)

First we have to calculate the moles of Al.

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{\text{Mass of }Al}{\text{Molar mass of }Al}

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mole

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{55g}{27g/mol}=2mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of O_2.

From the reaction we conclude that,

As, 4 mole of Al react with 3 moles of O_2

So, 2 mole of Al react with \frac{3}{4}\times 2=0.75\times 2 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the volume of O_2 consumed.

As we know that, 1 mole of substance occupies 22.4 liter volume of gas.

As, 1 mole of O_2 occupies 22.4 liter volume of O_2 gas

So, 0.75\times 2 mole of O_2 occupies 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 liter volume of O_2 gas

Therefore, the volume of O_2 consumed are, 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 L.
