(d)
Explanation of Solution
The ‘90’ method work can be done and useful only for Fluorine and Chlorine Halogen. There are no guidelines for handling bromine.
Hence, this method does not work for Halon-1301

- Uranium-238 (U238) has three more neutrons than uranium-235 (U235). Compared to the speed of sound in a bar of U235, is the speed of sound in a bar of U238 higher, lower, or the same? There are several factors that play a role. (a) Chemically, the atoms of these two isotopes behave in essentially identical ways, since the number of protons (92) is identical and the clouds of 92 electrons are nearly identical. The interatomic distance, and the effective "stiffness" of the interatomic bond, both depend on the chemical properties of the atoms. Therefore, which of the following statements are true? O The effective stiffness of the interatomic "spring" is greater for U238 because the mass is greater. O The effective stiffness of the interatomic "spring" is the same in the two isotopes, since this "spring" is a model for the interactions of the outer electrons, which are the same for different isotopes of the same atom. O An atom with more mass in the nucleus is bigger, so the distance…arrow_forwardDetermining Diet. One method for determining the amount of corn in early Native American diets is the stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) technique. As corn photosynthesizes, it concentrates the isotope carbon-13, whereas most other plants concentrate carbon-12. Overreliance on corn consumption can then be correlated with certain diseases, because corn lacks the essential amino acid lysine. Archaeologists use a mass spectrometer to separate the 12C and 13C isotopes in samples of human remains. Suppose you use a velocity selector to obtain singly ionized (missing one electron) atoms of speed 8.50 km /s, and you want to bend them within a uniform magnetic field in a semicircle of diameter 25.0 cm for the 12C. The measured masses of these isotopes are 1.99 * 10-26 kg (12C) and 2.16 * 10-26 kg (13C). (a) What strength of magnetic field is required? (b) What is the diameter of the 13C semicircle?
