Fluorine is the most active chemical element, reacting with virtually every element. It even reacts with the noble gases at high temperatures and pressures. The noble gases, or Group 18 (VIIIA), also known as the inert gases, generally do not react with other elements.
Explanation:
Answer: -
²²³Ra is the daughter nuclide produced when ²²⁷Th undergoes alpha decay
Explanation: -
When alpha decay occurs, the mass number of the parent decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.
Mass number of ²²⁷Th =227
Atomic number of ²²⁷Th = 90
Mass number of daughter = 227 - 4 = 223
Atomic number of daughter = 90 - 2 = 88
88 is the atomic number of Ra Radium.
Thus the daughter is ²²³Ra
This year course engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of periods, disciplines, and
rhetorical contexts and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. More immediately, the course
prepares the students to perform satisfactorily on the A.P. Examination in Language and Composition given in the spring.
Both their writing and their reading should make students aware of the interactions among a writer’s purposes, audience
expectations, and subjects as well as the way generic conventions and the resources of language contribute to effectiveness
in writing. Students will learn and practice the expository, analytical, and argumentative writing that forms the basis of
academic and professional writing; they will learn to read complex texts with understanding and to write prose of
sufficient richness and complexity to communicate effectively with mature readers. Readings will be selected primarily,
but not exclusively, from American writers. Students who enroll in the class will take the AP examination.
