The balanced nuclear equations for the following:(a) β⁻decay of sodium-26 is Na²⁶₁₁ → Mg²⁶₁₂ + β₋₁⁰ + energy.

What is beta decay?

Beta decay (-decay) is a type of radioactive decay in nuclear physics in which a beta particle (fast energetic electron or positron) is ejected from an atomic nucleus, converting the original nuclide to an isobar of that nuclide. For example, beta decay of a neutron converts it into a proton by the emission of an electron accompanied by an antineutrino; or positron emission converts a proton into a neutron via the emission of a positron accompanied by a neutrino. The beta particle and its accompanying (anti-)neutrino do not exist in the nucleus before beta decay, but are generated during the decay process. Unstable atoms gain a more stable proton-neutron ratio through this process.

Finger [1]
 <span>I would say only if one of your data points is the origin. But your experiment could have started with a non-zero velocity, for instance, which would rule out the origin as one of your data points. Even so, a "best fit" is not meant to be perfect, it is only meant to be the best that you can do with your particular data set.</span>

What happens to a glass of pure fruit juice when water is added to it?
ryzh [129]

Answer: The molarity of the juice decreases.

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per kg of the solvent.

Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in L

As volume of solution is inversely proportional to molarity, as water is added to juice, the volume of solution increases and thus the molarity decreases.

The moles remain fixed on adding water to juice.

A student added 5 grams of calcium chloride, a white solid substance, to 15 grams of water at 220 C. Several observations were m
umka21 [38]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A The calcium chloride dissolves in solution

B The mass of the solution totals 20 g

C The temperature of the solution is 35 degrees

D The solution became lighter in color

The correct answer would be that <u>the solution became lighter in color.</u>

An increase in temperature can also be considered a sign of a chemical reaction but in this case, the dissolution of calcium chloride in water is in itself exothermic.

A change in the mass of the final solution could also be considered a sign of a chemical reaction but in this case, the total mass equals the addition of the individual masses of the reactant.

The dissolution of calcium chloride in water is not enough as evidence of a chemical reaction. Dissolution can be a physical change of which, the evaporation of the water would retrieve the solute.

<em>A change in color, however, is one of the evidence to establish that a chemical reaction has occurred.</em>

The correct option is D.
