Applying the conservation of mass:

Mass during bombardment:
242 (curium atom) + 4 (alpha particle)
= 246

This must equal the mass after bombardment:
1 (neutron) + x (unknown product)

246 = 1 + x
x = 245

The product is Californium-245

Which of the following definitions best describes the term "vapor pressure?a. Pressure and temperature values on a phase diagram
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

b. In equilibrium with the liquid phase, the pressure exerted by a gas.

Explanation:

When a liquid is warmed up to a temperature , it starts vaporising . The liquid is turning into gas and gas is turning into liquid at different rates  . Initially the rate of former is higher but gradually the difference of rate between them decreases to zero . At this point the rate of conversion of liquid into gas and rate of conversion of gas into liquid becomes equal  . This is called dynamic equilibrium point .

If we change the temperature , the equilibrium gets disturbed .

At this point the pressure exerted by the gas is called the vapour pressure of the liquid .

So option b ) is correct .

The end of the iron fire poker that you are holding gets warm even though it is not directly in the fire. The motion of the iron
AlladinOne [14]
I believe the statement is true. The heat transfer involved here is called conduction. It is one type of heat transfer where it caused by the collisions of the particles in a certain body. As the you add heat to the object, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases therefore more collisions could happen which would mean energy is dissipated or transferred from molecule to molecule.<span />

Which construction can you use to prove the Pythagorean Theorem based on similarity of triangles?
Vinvika [58]
<span>To prove the Pythagorean Theorem based on similarity of triangles, you can always use the 2nd construction.

The 2nd construction is achieved by drawing a perpendicular line joining between the right angle of the triangle and the hypothesis (as shown in the attachment).

Note: The Pythagorean Theorm is stated as follows:
(length of hypotenuse)^2  = (length of side1)^2 + (length of side2)^2</span>
