<span>Answer is: atomic number
of resulting atom is 88.
Alpha particle is nucleus of a helium-4 atom, which is made of
two protons and two neutrons.
Nuclear reaction: ²³</span>²Th → ²²⁸Ra + α (alpha
particle).
Alpha
decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic
nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms
into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by
two and mass number that is reduced by four.
Here is the link to the answer:
Electrons in an atom can be classified as core electrons and valence electrons. Valence electrons are those electrons which are present in valence shell and participates in bond formation. While, Core electrons are all remaining electrons which are not present in valence shell, hence not take part in bonding.
Atomic number of Selenium (Se) is 34 hence it has 34 electrons with following electronic configuration;
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
From electronic configuration it is found that the valence shell is 4, and the number of electrons present in valence shell are 6. So,
Core Electrons = Total Electrons - Valence Electrons
Core Electrons = 34 - 6
Core Electrons = 28
Result:
There are 28 core electrons in Selenium.
All of the above would be the answer
