What is the mass defect

If you add the exact mass of the protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom you do not get the exact atomic mass of the isotope. The diference is called the mass defect. The difference between the mass of the atomic nucleus and the sum of the masses of the particles within the nucleus is known as the mass defect.

The principal quantum number for the outermost electrons in a Bromine atom in the ground state is

It is n=4 because Br is in the 4p valence shell.

What is the nuclear decay equation for potassium-40

There are three beta decay modes for 40K, and so three equations.

The equation for the negative beta decay of 40K: 1940K --> 2040Ca + -10e

where the -10e represents a beta particle or electron.

The equation for the positive beta decay of 40K: 1940K --> 1840Ar+ 10e

where the 10e represents a positive beta particle or positron.

The equation for the decay of 40K by electron capture is:1940K + -10e --> 1840Ar + ve

What is important in order for a radioisotope to provide accurate dating results

The half-life should be similar to the age of the object.

Which equation shows how frequency is related to velocity and wavelength

F=v/&

What best describes a radioisotope

its nucleus is unstable

How much energy is released is a sample loses 0.05 kg mass through radioactive decay

4.5 × 1015 J

Nuclear energy is a useful source of power but has its disadvantages what is a disadvantage of nuclear energy

it produces dangerous waste. apex

What can be determined from the frequency and wavelength in a wave

the velocity of the wave -apex

What is the value of delta G at 500 K if delta H 27 kJmol and delta S 0.09 kJ(mol K)

∆G = ∆H - T∆S∆G = 27 kJ/mole - (500 deg)(0.09 kJ/mol-deg)

∆G = 27 kJ/mole - 45 kJ/mole

∆G = - 18 kJ/mole (Note the minus sign indicating the process is spontaneous)
