Chapter 2, Problem 2.41P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Number of neutrons, electrons, and protons present in iodine-131 has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Each and every element present in the Periodic table has a unique name.  Some of the elements are named considering their atomic number.  In order to represent the elements in a short form, atomic symbols are used.  Generally the first two letters of the element name will be used as symbol where the first letter is in upper case.

Chemical names are represented as atomic symbols.  In the symbols, the mass number and atomic number are shown.  The complete symbol for an element can be represented as shown below.

General Chemistry, Chapter 2, Problem 2.41P

Atomic number is the total number of protons present in the atom of an element.  Mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons present in nucleus of an atom.

6. Chlorine dioxide (CIO) is used as a disinfectant in municipal water-treatment plants. It decomposes in a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 14 s. How long would it take for an initial concentration of 0.06 M to decrease to 0.02 M? [6 pts]
If possible, replace an H atom on the a carbon of the molecule in the drawing area with a methyl group substituent, and replace an H atom on the ẞ carbon with a hydroxyl group substituent. If one of the substituents can't be added for any reason, just don't add it. If neither substituent can be added, check the box under the drawing area. en HO OH
