Answer:
The atomic number of the isotope is reduced by 2 and atomic mass is reduced by 4.
Explanation:
Alpha particle is doubly ionized helium atom. The atomic mass of helium atom is 4 u and atomic number of helium atom is 2. The emission of alpha particle means doubly ionized helium atom will be released from the isotope.
Hence, the emission of the alpha particle will decrease the atomic mass by 4 and atomic number by 2.
Hence, option(a) is correct

Answer: conversion of ice to steam
Explanation: Endothermic process is one in which energy is absorbed by the system.
Conversion of ice to steam is change of solid phase to gaseous phase, thus energy is required to break the strong inter molecular forces of attraction in solids to convert it into gaseous phase.
Conversion of steam to ice, conversion of steam to water and conversion of water to ice releases energy and are examples of exothermic processes.
