OH- is common to bases.
Explanation:
The base is a is an ionic compounds which when placed in aqueous solution dissociates in to a cation and an anion OH-.
The presence of OH- in the solution shows that the solution is basic or alkaline.
From Bronsted and Lowry concept base is a molecule that accepts a proton for example in NaOH, Na is a proton donor and OH is the proton acceptor.
A base accepts hydrogen ion and the concentration of OH is always higher in base.
There is a presence of conjugate acid and conjugate base in the Bronsted and Lowry acid and base.
Conjugate acid is one which is formed when a base gained a proton.
Conjugate base is one which is formed when an acid looses a proton.
And from the Arrhenius base Theory, the base is one that dissociates in to water as OH-.
The answer is (2). If you recall Rutherford's gold foil experiment, remember that a stream of positively charged alpha particles were shot at a gold foil in the center of a detector ring. The important observation was that although most of the particles passed straight through the foil without being deflected, a tiny fraction of the alpha particles were deflected off the axis of the shot, and some were even deflected almost back to the point from which they were shot. The fact that some of the alpha particles were deflected indicated a positive charge (because same charges repel), and the fact that only a small fraction of the particles were deflected indicated that the positive charge was concentrated in a small area, probably residing at the center of the atom.
In gamma decay, no change in proton number occurs, so the atom does not become a different element
