Explanation:
Are there any values given in the question?
Answer:
Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
Explanation:
Step 1
This equation is a nuclear reaction. So it can be an alpha decay or a beta decay
An α-particle is a helium nucleus. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons, for a mass number of 4.
During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. It transforms (or decays) into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less.
Thus, radium-226 decays through α-particle emission to form radon-222 according to the equation that is showed.
A Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other.
Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
The basic difference between thin layer chromatography (TLC) and paper chromatography (PC) is that, while the stationary phase in PC is paper, the stationary phase in TLC is a thin layer of an inert substance supported on a flat, unreactive surface. ... Paper chromatography is performed using paper.
Oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound is composed of ions. In neutral substances that contains atoms of one element the oxidation number of an atom is zero. Thus atoms in O2, Ni2, and aluminium all have oxidation number of zero.
In this case, Ni2, the oxidation number of Ni atom is zero,
for NiO4-, assuming oxidation number of Ni is x
(x ×1) + (-2 × 4) = -1
x = + 7
Therefore, the oxidation number goes from 0 to +7
What did Dalton's atomic theory contribute to science?
Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass.
