6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Alpha decay occurs when a radioactive atm emits an alpha particle (Helium atom).

a)      ²⁵⁶Ra      ⇒      ²⁵²₈₄ Po  +   ⁴₂He

b)     ²¹⁹Rn       ⇒      ²¹⁵₈₂Pb    +   ⁴₂He

c)      ²¹¹Po      ⇒      ²⁰⁷₈₀Hg    +   ⁴₂Hg

d)      ²¹⁰Pb     ⇒     ²⁰⁶₇₈Pt      +   ⁴₂Hg

e)      ²³⁸U      ⇒     ²³⁴₈₈U       +   ⁴₂Hg

In the chemical formula 2so2, how many total atoms of sulfur (s) are there? 1 2 4
babunello [35]
Sulfur has the coefficient of 2, and nothing else. This indicates Sulfur has 2 atoms. 


<span>Oxygen on the other hand, has a subscript of 2, as well as the coefficient of 2. Multiplying those, and you see Oxygen has 4 atoms. 
</span>
So your answer is 2

Also remember there is a 2 in front of S meaning there are 2 Sulfurs. 
<span>If it was S02 it would be 1 Sulfur as there is no number in front of sulfer. </span>

<span>Remember the number in front of a element, represents how many atoms there are :)</span>

There is water on the pan of the scale as you measure the mass of an object. If you were to ignore the water, what would be the
mihalych1998 [28]
Remember that density refers to the "mass per unit volume" of an object.

So, if an object had a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 100 milliliters, the density would be 100 grams / 100 ml.

In the question, water on the surface of the scale would add weight, so the mass of the object that you're weighing would appear to be heavier than it really is. If that happens, you'll incorrectly assume that the density is GREATER than it really is

As an example, suppose that there was 5 ml of water on the surface of the scale. Water has a density of 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/ml) so the water would add 5 grams to the object's weight. If we use the example above, the mass of the object would seem to be 105 grams, rather than 100 grams. So, you would calculate:

density = mass / volume
density = 105 grams / 100 ml
density = 1.05 g/ml

The effect on density would be that it would erroneously appear to be greater

Hope this helps!

Good luck
