Which type of radioactive particle was emitted by the following isotopes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Paul [167]4 years ago
3 0

Radioactive decay or disintegration is a process through which unstable nuclei form q more stable nuclei by the release of elementary particles like alpha particles, beta, protons, neutrons etc along with the release of energy.

In the given examples:

a) N-13 will get converted in to carbon, C-12 along with the release of a proton as shown below:

₇N¹³ →  ₆C¹²  +  ₁H¹

b) N-15 will get converted in to boron B-11 along with the release of an alpha particle

₇N¹⁵  →  ₅B¹¹  +  ₂He⁴

A neutral atom of sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11 and a mass number of 23. How many neutrons would be found in the nucleu
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

12 neutrons

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • A neutral atom is an atom that has no charge, which means it has no additional electrons or electrons removed from its energy levels.
  • An atom is made up of sub-atomic particles neutrons and protons found in the nucleus and electrons found in the energy levels.
  • The number of protons in the nucleus of a neutral atom is known as the atomic number.
  • In a neutral atom, the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons as protons are equal to the number of electrons.
  • The sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is known as the mass number of an atom.

Therefore;

Protons = Atomic number

Protons + neutrons = Mass number

Thus;

Neutrons = Mass number - protons or

                = Mass number - atomic number

In this case;

Atomic number = 11

Mass number = 23

Thus;

Neutrons = mass number - atomic number

               = 23 - 11

              = 12 neutrons
