Xenon

nitrogen and oxygen form a sample of air, and the gases that were unaffected by this process were Noble Gases. In 1894, John William Strutt and William Ramsay replicated Henry Cavendish’s experiment with a few adjustments, and named the gas that was leftover Argon. Morris W. Travis and Sir William Travis discovered Neon, Krypton, and Xenon in 1898. They cooled a sample of air into liquid, and then captured the noble gas after removing water, oxygen, nitrogen, helium, and argon by evaporating them. The table location for Noble Gases is all the way to the right. It includes 7 elements. The 7 elements are Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn), and Oganessian (Og). Helium is a gaseous substances and gases do not have texture because their is no identifying qualities because they are not solids. Neon is a light a very inert gas. Neon is colorless and in a vacuum discharge which glows a reddish and orange light. Argon is colorless and has no texture. Argon is a gas so it is not on the hardness scale. Krypton is colorless, odorless, inert gas. Krypton is extremely unreactive but it can react with very reactive gas fluorine. Xenon is colorless and odorless, and an inert gas like all of the other Noble Gases. Radon is a radioactive element. The state at room temperature for the Noble Gases is gas. The Noble Gases all are non malleable and are not ductile. They are not malleable because they are gasses and not solids. They are not ductile because…

Xenon is one of the 6 noble gases on the periodic table belonging to group 18. The element was discovered by Sir Ramsay in 1898. Xenon’s symbol is Xe and its atomic number is 54. Xenon’s atomic mass is 131.293 grams. Its boiling point is -107 degrees Celsius, while its freezing point is -112 degrees Celsius. The density of Xenon at 20 degrees Celsius is 0.005887 grams per cubic centimeter. Xenon has 21 isotopes Xenon is described as being completely colorless and odorless, however when…

The noble gases are the group of elements which are like no other elements. The noble gases are the elements grouped as the last group, group 18. These elements, from smallest to greatest atomic mass, are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon. Group 18 wasn't always called the noble gases. this group used to be called the inert gassses. They changed the name of thisi group because they are not always inert, or chemically inactive. the first element in this group is the element…

11-27-15 Fire Apparatus Headlights Headlights are essential to a fire apparatus. Without them the driver would not be able to be see during responses after dark, and would also far less visible to others during the daytime. Headlights come in a few different styles. The three compaired here will be Halogen, Xenon, and LED headlights. They will be compaired on their economics, effectiveness, and overall safety. Halogen bulbs are the most popular headlight in use today, mainly because they are…

The target material for irradiation is either TeO2 or Te-metal, depending on whether a wet chemical separation or a dry distillation method is used. Iodine-131 is commercially available in dilute sodium hydroxide solution with high radiochemical purity. In certain solutions a specific reducing agent needs to be added to preserve the isotope in the form of iodide; howerver, its use may interfere when employing Iodine-131 for labelling organic compounds. Iodine-125 is also a reactor-produced…

individual particle. Evidence & Experiments Of course, as with any scientific theory, you need proof. Despite not being able to observe dark matter explicitly, many experiments have been done in order to prove its existence. One main experiment would be the Large Underground Xenon dark-matter experiment or LUX for short. This experiment consists of having a large tank set underground, filled with liquefied xenon that allows for interactions in the xenon to be detected through the emission of…

There shall be separate servers for each department including an email server. It is recommended that Widget Wonders uses Dell’s PowerEdge R320 rack servers. The servers come with Xenon processors, hot swappable hard drives and a memory capacity up to 192GB. To start off with, the consultant recommends for each department a PowerEdge R320 with a Xenon E5-2400 processor, 64GB DDR3 memory, 8TB of Hot-plug hard drives, four 3.5” hot-plug drive bays, RAID controller, 1Gb embedded NIC, and a 10Gb…

other traits does fluorine have? Read my ABC book and find out. A is for… Atomic number The atomic number of fluorine is 9. The most common isotope of fluorine is 19F and 18F. Fluorine is more stable in when it has 10 neutrons. Fluorine is a halogen and is placed on the right near the noble gas neon. B is for… Bonds Fluorine can bond with almost every element! It can create an ionic bond by bonding with another element such as sodium to create NaF. It can also use…

absorbs at a given wavelength, the wavelength that is not absorb is complementary to one another. Figure 13: As shown, absorbance patterns follow the theory of complementary colors. In the experiment, the solutions had an orange hue, meaning that the wavelength the molecules absorbs is within the blue region (430-490 nm). Spectrophotometers often follow a similar schematic; the main components are the light source, wavelength selector, sample holder, detector, and data processing. The light…

During the Vietnam War, the Army used the old 60-inch searchlight from the World War II era, and the newer 30-inch searchlight. The Army realized that both the 60-inch and 30-inch searchlights were susceptible to small arms fire. For this reason, Air Defense crews changed from the 60-inch or 30-inch searchlight to the 23-inch VSS-1 Xenon Searchlight. The Army originally had the 23-inch VSS-1 Xenon Searchlight mounted on the M48 tank. They easily modified the 23-inch searchlight to fit on the…
