Ompare and contrast positrons with electrons. • Explain how positron emission works and how it causes transmutations. • Explain how electron capture works and how it causes transmutations. • Compare the transmutations caused by positron emissions and electron capture.

Dying the folding patterns of protein molecules can microbiologists better understand cellular processes as well as some diseases, such as alzheimer’s, that are caused by proteins that have misfolded. the folding of these complicated molecules can be simulated on computers, but it takes a lot of processor power and time for even expensive supercomputers to do this. a group of researchers at stanford university developed software that can be used to distribute the processing of data to anyone who is willing to donate time on their idle personal computers. as a result, the researchers have been able to achieve protein-folding simulations that are far better than those other computing methods have done. which statement best describes the work of these researchers? the work is not scientific because the data are not processed in one location. the work is not scientific because the simulations are not reproducible. the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment. the researchers used only well-established scientific techniques.

Many reactions take place in aqueous solution. when potential reactants are mixed, a reaction will occur if there is some driving force that favors the formation of products. it is often convenient to categorize reactions in terms of these driving forces: precipitate formation, in which an insoluble solid is formed, weak electrolyte formation, as in a neutralization reaction involving water, or transfer of electrons, as in a redox reaction. these reactions can be represented by full molecular equations, which contain all species in the reaction mixture, or by net ionic equations, which show only the species that actually undergo a change. the latter does not contain the spectator ions, which do not undergo a net change or do not take part in the reaction. part a when the following two solutions are mixed: k2co3(aq)+fe(no3)3(aq) the mixture contains the ions listed below. sort these species into spectator ions and ions that react. drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. view available hint(s) spectator ions ions that react part b what is the correct net ionic equation, including all coefficients, charges, and phases, for the following set of reactants? assume that the contribution of protons from h2so4 is near 100 %.ba(oh)2(aq)+h2so4(aq)→ express your answer as a chemical equation. view available hint(s) nothing provide feedback
