Which statement describes the stability of the nuclei of potassium atoms

Chemistry

Which statements?

In general though, the potassium atom has 19 protons, and has 1 valence electron in the 4s orbital. The nucleus of the atom contains 19 protons and (21 neutrons on average.) If we were too apply the laws regarding the band of stability then that ratio is very stable and it is very unlikely (less than 10^-21%) that the nucleus would ever go through any form of decay.

A laboratory utilizes a mixture of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in the freezing and long-term storage of embryonic stem cells.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is "1.0100".

Explanation:

Let the volume of mixture be 100 ml.

then,

The volume of DMSO will be 10 mL as well as that of water will be 90 mL.

DMSO will be:

= 10\times 1.1004

= 11.004 \ g

The total mass of mixture will be:

= 90+11.004

= 101.004 \ g

Density of mixture will be:

= \frac{Mass}{Volume}

= \frac{101.004}{100}

= 1.01004 \ g/mL

hence,

Specific gravity of mixture will be:

= \frac{Density \ of \ mixture}{Density \ of \ water}

= \frac{1.01004}{1}

= 1.0100

When a known quantity of compound, at a known concentration, is added to a known volume of another compound to determine the con
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

A titration

Explanation:

A common example of a titration is when we have an acid of unknown concentration, so we add a known volume of a base of known concentration. This process lets us determine the concentration of the acid.

By definition, a titration is a quantitative analysis, as we determine how much of an analyte is there in a sample. However, <u>there are quantitative analyzes which are not titrations</u>. This is why the most appropiate answer is<em> a titration</em>.

Arsenic produces a blue flame when heated. Calcium produces an orange-red flame. Which of these best explains why this differenc
MrMuchimi

Flame colors are produced from the movement of the electrons in the metal ions present in the compounds. When you heat it, the electrons gain energy and can jump into any of the empty orbitals at higher levels Each of these jumps involves a specific amount of energy being released as light energy, and each corresponds to a particular color. As a result of all these jumps, a spectrum of colored lines will be produced. The color you see will be a combination of all these individual colors.

A turtle moves at a speed of 1.0km/h. How fast is the turtle moving in meter per second (m/s)?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

0.28m/s

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the distance travelled per unit of time. The speed of the turtle is 1.0km/h. Thus, to find the speed in m/s, we need to convert km to m (1km is 1000m), and h to s (1h = 3600s).

<em>Converting units:</em>

1.0km/h * (1000m / 1km) * (1h / 3600s) = 0.28m/s.

The speed of the turtle in meter per second is 0.28m/s
