Which of the following correctly represents the radioactive decay of cesium-137?

Chemistry

Lelu [443]2 years ago
6 0
The decay mode of cesium-137 is beta decay. This means that the cesium-137 decays into a beta particle and a nuclide with the same mass number, but with a charge number that is 1 more than that of cesium.

Therefore, this means Cs-137 decays into an electron and Barium-137, meaning the answer is choice 1.

Which of the following is the best explanation for a covalent bond?
Scrat [10]

Answer:

A. electrons simultaneously attracted by more than one nucleus

Explanation:

  • Covalent bond is the bond which is formed with the sharing of the electrons between the two atoms which are taking part in the bond. It is generally formed between the atoms with similar electronegativity values.
  • It is the bond which is generally occurs within non metals as they share electrons to complete their octet.
  • The difference in the electronegativity values of the atoms involving in a covalent bond must not exceed the value of 1.7 .

Thus, the electrons are attracted by the two different nucleus of the atoms that are taking part in the bonding.

<u>So, the correct answer is:- A. electrons simultaneously attracted by more than one nucleus</u>

Base your answer on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.Nitrogen dioxide, NO₂, is a dark brown gas that is
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

There are two possible answers to the question

I) decreasing the pressure of the system

II) decreasing the temperature of the system

Explanation:

Looking at the equation of the reaction, it can be seen that the reaction is endothermic. This implies that decreasing the temperature favours the reverse reaction and more NO2 is produced.

Secondly, decreasing the pressure drives the equilibrium position towards the side having the higher total volume hence decreasing the pressure favours the reverse reaction and more NO2 is produced.

What does that number of protons tell you
bogdanovich [222]
The number of protons tells you which element the atom is. The number of protons is the element number (Hydrogen - 1, Helium - 2, etc.).
