What type of decay does Am-241 undergo to become Np-237?

a. Alpha decay

c. Positron emission

b. Beta decay

d. Electron capture

Answers

Answer 1
i think it’s positron emission
Answer 2

The type of decay that Am-241 undergoes to become Np-237 is alpha decay. The correct option is a.

What is alpha decay?

Alpha decay is a type of decay or transformation in which a nucleus emits an alpha particle and change into different atomic nuclei. The atomic number reduces by 2 and the mass is reduced by 4.

Am-241 is an isotope of the chemical element americium. It is a radioactive element and its radioactive decay period is 432.2 years. It is used in the testing of machinery.

When the nucleus of Am changes or emits a radioactive particle. It converts into Np-237. The process is called alpha decay. The atomic mass is reduced by four, and the 241 converts into 237, which become neptunium.

Thus, the correct option is a. Alpha decay.

Answer:

C. Copper used for making electrical wires

Explanation:

When a coating of a particular metal is applied on another metal, the process is termed as electroplating. The process is carried by the process of electro-deposition. This process is carried on in order to enhance the quality of the objects manufactured. The coating helps in resistance and provides an attractive appearance to the object.  

Option C. is not an example of electrocoating because on the copper wires no other metal coating is done. In all the other three options, coating has been done on the object.

Answers

A is incorrect because Mg has a 2+ charge, while SO4 has a 2- charge, if there is 2 Mg and 3 SO4 then the formula will not add to 0 meaning neutral

The formula of a compound is written based on the valency of each bonded atoms. The formulas  Mg₂(SO₄)₃, Rb₃As are incorrect. Such compounds does not exist.

What is chemical formula?

The formula of a chemical compound is written based on the number of atoms participated in bonding.   Magnesium is second group element having two valence electrons.

Magnesium thus donates its two electrons into the bonding atom or group. The sulphate group SO₄ have a valency of 2 it gains two electrons from Mg when bonded.

Thus the formula of magnesium sulphate being MgSO₄ and not Mg₂(SO₄)₃. Similarly Rb is a second group metal having two valence electrons. Its valency being two. As is a halogen with valency one. Thus they cannot form a compound like Rb₃As.

Hence, option a and b are incorrect formulas.

Product side number of atoms?

what is the final equation?

Answers

Answer:

2Na+Cl2 -> 2NaCl

Explanation:

1Na+1Cl 2 -> 1NaCl (i'm assuming they want you to balance it so ill start with 1)

Na = 1

Cl = 2 (it is 2 because it is Cl2, meaning that there are 2; but remember that you cannot change this number only coefficients)

Na = 1

Cl = 1

We need to have 2 Cl on the product side

1Na+1Cl 2 -> 2NaCl

Now we need 2 Na on the reactants side

The final equation is

2Na+Cl2 -> 2NaCl

Now it is balanced

Na = 2

Cl = 2

--

Na = 2

Cl = 2

C. 0.0112 grams
D. 0.791 grams​

Answers

The amount of chlorine will be 0.791 gram required to completely react with 0.0223 moles of sodium iodide .

The given chemical reaction is :

2Nal + [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] → 2NaCl + [tex]I_{2}[/tex]

It is given that:

Amount of sodium iodide = 0.0223 mol.

Atomic mass of chlorine = 35.45 g.

The amount of chlorine can be calculated as:

0.0223mol. NaI × (1mol. Cl₂/2mol. NaI) × (35.45g/1mol. Cl2)

=0.791 grams

b) If 0.726 g of sulfuric acid is produced in the laboratory experiment, what is the percent yield of sulfuric acid? (97.3190)

2.

If 3.2 moles of sodium sulfate is used in the reaction, how many formula units of phosphoric acid is needed to completely react?
(1.28427×1024

Answers

Answer:

1. a) 0.745 g of H₂SO₄

b) 97.4%

2.  1.28×10²⁴ formula units

Explanation:

First of all, we determine the equations:

3Na₂SO₄   +  2H₃PO₄  →  3H₂SO₄  +  2Na₃PO₄

We determine, the moles of sodium sulfate. (As the acid is in excess, we work with the salt)

1.08 g . 1mol/ 142.04g = 0.00760 moles.

Ratio is 3:3. So 3 moles of salt can produce 3 moles of sulfuric acid,

Then, 0.00760 moles will produce the same amount of acid.

We convert the moles to mass → 0.00760 mol . 98 g/mol = 0.745 g

Percent yield = (Produced yield /Theoretical yield) . 100

(0.726 g / 0.745 g) . 100 = 97.4 %

2. 3 moles of sodium sulfate need 3 moles of phosphoric acid to react

Then, 3.2 moles of salt will react to (3.2 . 2)/3 = 2.13 moles

Let's count the formula units:

2.13 mol . 6.02×10²³ formula units /mol = 1.28×10²⁴ formula units.

Actualmente tenemos el ejemplo de la vacuna para el control de la pandemia, que antes de ser aprobada tuvo que someterse a una serie de investigaciones, pruebas en humanos y diferentes fases para demostrar su efectividad y no causar daño al organismo humano.
