Answer: Thus X is Plutonium
Explanation:
Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.
General representation of alpha decay :
[tex]_{Z}^{A}\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\textrm{He}[/tex]
where Z = atomic number
A= mass number
X and Y = atomic symbol of elements
[tex]_{Z}^{A}\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_2^4\textrm{He}[/tex]
Thus [tex]_{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_2^4\textrm{He}[/tex]
Thus X is Plutonium with atomic number 94 and mass number 239

Describing Matter Matter is anything that has______ and takes up space (_________). The _______________ of an object measures the amount of matter or substance the object contains. Volume is the measure of _________________ by the object.
Answer:
Mass; mass; amount of space taken up.
Explanation:
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. The mass of an object measures the amount of matter or substance the object contains.
Volume is the measure of the amount of space taken up by the object.
The SI units for mass and volume are kilogram (kg) and cubic meter (m³) respectively.
Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct phases and these are;
1. Solid: it is the state of matter in which the physical substance has a definite shape and fixed volume but not compressible. Examples of solids are pen, screwdriver, television, car etc.
2. Liquid: it is the state of matter in which the physical substance can be poured and takes the shape of its container. Also, liquids generally have a definite volume. Examples of liquids are urine, water, milk, blood etc.
3. Gas: it is the state of matter in which the physical substance has no definite shape or volume and as a result fills all available space. Also, gases are easily compressible and can flow. Examples of gases are hydrogen, oxygen, argon, nitrogen etc.

If you wanted to heat a liquid that would splatter when it is heated, you would heat it in a
Answer:
This question lacks options but it will be answered based on the fact that laboratory processes including heating are done using glasswares. The answer is:
Conical or Erlenmeyer/Boiling flask
Explanation:
Glasswares are simply laboratory equipments made of glass. They are used in performing the various laboratory processes like mixing, storing chemicals, heating and cooling etc. Glasswares includes flasks e.g volumetric flask, Erlenmeyer flask etc, beaker, test tube, graduated cylinder etc.
Heating a liquid that would splatter or splash in a laboratory requires using a glassware that can prevent spilling of the liquid outside it. A FLASK such as Erlenmeyer or boiling flask is best suited for this purpose because they generally have a conical shaped body with a narrow neck that prevents liquid chemicals from spilling when heated or shaken. Flasks can also be corked with a lid to prevent the liquid from coming out.
The pressure of 10.0 L of gas increases from 1.50 atm to 1240 mmHg. What is the final volume of the gas, assuming constant temperature?
Answer:
The final volume of gas is 9.19 L.
Explanation:
Given that,
Volume = 10.0 L
Initial pressure = 1.50 atm
Final pressure = 1240 mmHg
We need to calculate the final volume of gas
Using formula of ideal gas
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}[/tex]
[tex]V_{2}=\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{P_{2}}[/tex]
Where, P₁ = initial pressure
P₂ = final pressure
V₁ = initial volume
Put the value into the formula
[tex]V_{2}=\dfrac{1.50\times10\times760}{1240}[/tex]
[tex]V_{2}=9.19\ L[/tex]
Hence, The final volume of gas is 9.19 L.
Which of the following is the best metaphor for an atom? A. A jigsaw puzzle piece B. A lego block C. A box
Answer:
A box
Explanation:
In quantum mechanics, the atom is metaphorically described as a box. In fact, the Schrödinger wave equation is based on the three dimensional box metaphor of the atom.
Thus, a box provides a convenient treatment of the atom as it represents the fundamental components of the problem of atomic structure, hence the answer.
C. A box
According to Erwin Schrödinger:He proposed the quantum mechanical model of the atom, which treats electrons as matter waves.Atoms are extremely small, typically around 100 picometers across. They are so small that accurately predicting their behavior using classical physics—as if they were tennis balls.For example—is not possible due to quantum effects. Every atom is composed of a nucleus and one or more electrons bound to the nucleus.Thus, the correct option is C.

What does one calorie do to water
Answer:
The calorie is a unit of energy widely used in nutrition. For historical reasons, two main definitions of calorie are in wide use. The small calorie or gram calorie (usually denoted cal) is the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius (or one kelvin). The large calorie, food calorie, or kilocalorie (Cal, calorie or kcal) is the amount of heat needed to cause the same increase in one kilogram of water. Thus, 1 kilocalorie (kcal) = 1000 calories (cal). By convention in food science, the large calorie is commonly called Calorie (with a capital C by some authors to distinguish from the smaller unit). In most countries, labels of industrialized food products are required to indicate the nutritional energy value in (kilo or large) calories per serving or per weight.

Dominick and eva are using the same type of stopwatches to measure the time it takes for a chemical reaction to occur. They can use the same stopwatch to measure the time.
Answer:
They did not repeat their tests multiple times.
Explanation:
It may seem that the question is incomplete. The complete question is as below: Dominic and Eva are using the same type of stopwatches to measure the time it takes for a chemical reaction to occur. They each use the same stopwatch to measure the time. These are their results:
Dominic: 78 seconds
Eva: 81 seconds
Why are their results unreliable and can lead to a pseudoscientific claim?
They did not repeat their tests multiple times.
They used the same type of stopwatch.
They did not change the reactants in their chemical reactions.
Only one person should have collected the data.
Dominic and Eva's results are unreliable and can lead to a pseudoscientific claim because they did not repeat their tests multiple times.
Repeating the test multiple times and finding the average of the measurement will minimize the chance of having error in the measurement and improve the accuracy of the outcome.
Thus, without repeated measurement, the reliability and the validity of the measurement would be in doubt.

this question is for science. which options describes the particles of water as liquid water actively boils to become steam?
a. the particles will gain a large amount of kinetic energy.
b. The particles will increase in temperature as they gain thermal energy.
c. the particles will convert kinetic energy into thermal energy.
d. the particles will have the same average kinetic energy
Answer:
The correct option is;
a. The particles will gain a large amount of kinetic energy
Explanation:
As the water temperature reaches 100°C, which is the boiling point for water at atmospheric pressure, the continued heating is then used to break up the strong inter molecular forces between molecules of the water such that the individual molecules are free to move about and due to the high temperature, have gained considerable amount of kinetic energy for the to rise to appreciable height and to also spread.
The heat which converts water into steam is called latent heat as during the boiling phase, the temperature of the water remains constant.
d the particles will have the same average kinetic energy.
