Chapter 18, Problem 16KT
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The key term corresponding to the definition “an atom whose nucleus is unstable and decays radioactively” is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Radioactive decay is the process that involves the emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus loses its energy. The process is spontaneous. The decay is accompanied by the emission of alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays. The elements that have an atomic number greater than 83 are radioactive.

1, How many signals do you expect in the H NMR spectrum for this molecule? Write the answer below. Also, in each of the drawing areas below is a copy of the molecule, with Hs shown. In each copy, one of the H atoms is colored red. Highlight in red all other H atoms that would contribute to the same signal as the H already highlighted red. Note for advanced students: In this question, any multiplet is counted as one signal. Number of signals in the 'H NMR spectrum. For the molecule in the top drawing area, highlight in red any other H atoms that will contribute to the same signal as the H atom already highlighted red. If no other H atoms will contribute, check the box at right. No additional Hs to color in top molecule For the molecule in the bottom drawing area, highlight in red any other H atoms that will contribute. to the same signal as the H atom already highlighted red. If no other H atoms will contribute, check the box at right. No additional Hs to color in bottom molecule Check…
Incorrect Row 2: Your answer is incorrect. Consider this molecule: How many H atoms are in this molecule? 22 How many different signals could be found in its 'H NMR spectrum? 12 Note: A multiplet is considered one signal.
