Scientists use carbon dating to determine the age of fossils. 14C is a rare isotope of carbon that has a half life of 5730 years and decays into 14N. By measuring the amount of 14C remaining in a fossil, scientists can estimate when the organism died out to about 60,000 years. The atomic number of C is 6, and of N is 7. 14C and 14N have the same: Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - mass number.

Explanation:

The atomic number the number of electrons or protons present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

Whereas, the mass number the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

For C-14 and N-14:

C-14 isotope:

Atomic number = number of proton = number of electron = 6.

Mass number = 14

Number of neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8

In N-14 isotope:

Atomic number = number of proton = number of electron = 7

Mass number = 14

Number of neutrons = 14 - 7 = 7

Thus, these two isobars have same mass number.

O structure should have 6 carbon with triple bond beginning on the 1st carbon atom
O structure should have 6 carbon with double bond beginning on the 1st carbon atom
O structure should have 5 carbon with triple bond beginning on the 1st carbon atom

Answers

Answer:

The answer is that the structure should have 5 carbon with triple bond beginning on the 1st carbon atom.

Explanation:

The structure will have 5 carbons since the -pent prefix means 5 carbons.

The structure has a triple bond because the -yne suffix means that the structure is an alkyne. An alkyne is a hydrocarbon with triple covalent bonds.

Also, the position of the triple bond is known because the nomenclature of the alkyne states that the triple bond is on the 1st carbon.

O The volume stays the same, but the shape changes to fit the new container
O The volume and the shape change to fill the new container

Answers

Answer:

the volume stays the same, but the shape changes to fit the new container

Explanation:

because the same amount/volume of liquid is being placed in a new container, the new container has a different shape to the old, thus changing the liquids shape but not volume.

Which of the following correctly describes the role of the mouth in the digestive system?

The mouth acts like a muscular bag by churning the food and producing enzymes that aid in chemical digestion.


The mouth produces all of the enzymes needed for digestion and these enzymes are swallowed, which moves them through the digestive tract.


The mouth begins the process of digestion by mechanically breaking food into smaller pieces.


The mouth performs the peristalsis that pushes food through the rest of the digestive system.

Answers

Answer:

The mouth begins the process of digestion by mechanically breaking food into smaller pieces.

Explanation:

Digestion is a crucial process that involves the break down of complex food molecules into simpler ones that are assimilable by the body. The process of digestion in humans, for example, is said to begin in the MOUTH where the food enters through.

The mouth via the use of teeth helps the initially break down the food particles using mechanical/physical method. This further helps the break down of the food into tiny particles before they are acted on enzymatically.

A. What is the mass number
B. write the nuclear notation given the atoms as X.
C. How many electrons does atom X have?
D. what is number of protons.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

1) Let us recall that;

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Where;

Number of protons = ?

Number of neutrons =20

Mass number =39

Number of protons = mass number - number of neutrons

Mass of protons =39 - 20= 19 protons

2) Atomic number = 13

Number of neutrons =14

Then the mass number =13 +14 =27

The symbol of the element is 27X13

The number of protons= the number of electrons =13

The atomic number is the same as the proton number =13

A seais usually defined as A.A body of freshwater that is not connected to the ocean B. A body of freshwater that is connected to the ocean C. A body of salt water that is not connected to the ocean D. Body of salt water that is connected to the ocean

Answers

Answer:

D. Body of salt water that is connected to the ocean

Explanation:

An ocean is a body of salt water which covers approximately 70% of the Earth's surface. About 97% of the Earth's water is comprised of ocean and as such it is the most prominent and defined feature of the Earth. There are basically four (4) categories of an oceanic basin and these are;

1. The Pacific ocean.

2. The Artic ocean.

3. The Atlantic ocean.

4. The Indian ocean.

A sea is usually defined as a body of salt water that is connected to the ocean and are surrounded (enclosed) by land partially.

Basically, a sea is formed where a land and an ocean meet and as a result, an ocean is usually bigger than a sea.

Some examples of seas around the world are Red sea, Mediterranean sea, Sargasso sea, Caribbean sea, Baltic sea, Caspian sea, Chuckchi sea, etc.

CO(g) + 2H2(g) → CH2OH()
A. 160.2g
B. 96.12 g
C. 6.06 g
D. 192.2g

Answers

Answer:

B. 96.12 g

Explanation:

To solve this question we must convert each reactant to moles. Using the balanced equation we can find limiting reactant. With moles of limiting reactant we can find the moles of methanol and its mass:

Moles CO -Molar mass: 28.01g/mol-

140.1g CO * (1mol / 28.01g) = 5.0 moles CO

Moles H2 -Molar mass: 2.01g/mol-

12.12g * (1mol / 2.01g) = 6.03 moles H2

For a complete reaction of 5.0 moles of CO are required:

5.0moles CO * (2mol H2 / 1mol CO) = 10.0 moles of H2 are required

As there are just 6.03 moles, H2 is limiting reactant.

The moles of methanol produced are:

6.03 moles H2 * (1mol CH3OH / 2mol H2) = 3.015 moles CH2OH

Mass CH3OH -Molar mass32.04g/mol-:

3.015 moles CH2OH * (32.04g/mol) =

96.6g CH3OH ≈ B. 96.12 g

aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride turn cloudy after mixing aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate produces bubbles on mixing Sodium hydroxide is mixed with water and the container feels warmer

Explanation:

A chemical change involves the formation of new substances. Also heat is absorbed or released in a chemical change. Another name for a chemical change is a chemical reaction.

In the first case, a reaction of the sort;

AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) ---> AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)

The cloudy solution is due to the formation of AgCl precipitate.

In the second case, a reaction of the sort;

HCl(aq) + NaHCO3(aq) ---> NaCl(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

The gas evolved is due to the formation of CO2 in the process. Heat is also evolved showing that it is a chemical change.

A mixture of gases with a pressure of 900 mm Hg contains 20% of oxygen and 80% of nitrogen by volumeWhat is the partial pressure of the oxygen gas in the mixture?
A-45mmHg
B-180mmHg
C-210 mmHg
D-320 mmHg

Answers

Answer:

180 mmHg

Explanation:

Total volume of gases = 20% + 80%= 100%

Total pressure of gases = 900 mm Hg

Note that partial pressure of a gas = mole fraction × total pressure

Mole fraction of oxygen = 20/100

Hence partial pressure of oxygen= 20/100 × 900 mm Hg

partial pressure of oxygen= 180 mmHg

A haloalkane 'X' if heated with sodium metal in presence of dry ether produces
2,3 - dimethyl butane
as major product
Identify x with chemical reaction.​

Answers

Answer:

2 halo - propane

Explanation:

We are told that a halo alkane is heated with sodium in the presence of dry ether to produce 2,3 - dimethyl butane.

Now, according to Wurtz reaction this formation from heating with sodium in the presence of dry ether is done by 2 alkyl halides in the form of;

2RX + 2Na → R−R + 2Na+X−

Now, formula for 2,3 dimethyl butane is (CH₃)₂CHCH(CH₃)₂

Thus, from the Wurtz reaction, we can write that;

2RX + 2Na → (CH₃)₂CH - CH(CH₃)₂ + 2Na+X−

So, R = (CH₃)₂CH

This means the original halo alkane has 3 carbon atoms and thus, we can say it is 2 halo - propane.

Answer: The correct number of significant figures in [tex]7.68 \times 4.564[/tex] is 35.05152.

Explanation:

Digits present in a number that helps in determining the degree of accuracy starting from the first non-zero digit is called a significant figure.

Some rules for significant figures are as follows.

All the digits present within the non-zero digits are considered in a number.

For example, 2085 contains 4 significant digits.

Leading zeros are not counted in a number.

For example, 0.0034 has 2 significant digits.

We count the trailing zeros when a decimal point is present in a number.

For example, 0.02500 has 4 significant figures.

When there is no decimal point then trailing zeros may or may not count.

For example, 19000 has 2 significant digits.

Now, the product of given digits is as follows.

[tex]7.68 \times 4.564 = 35.05152[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that correct number of significant figures in [tex]7.68 \times 4.564[/tex] is 35.05152.
