The mass defect for the isotope thorium-234 if given mass is 234.04360 amu is 1.85864 amu.
<h3>How do we calculate atomic mass?</h3>
Atomic mass (A) of any atom will be calculated as:
A = mass of protons + mass of neutrons
In the Thorium-234:
Number of protons = 90
Number of neutrons = 144
Mass of one proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of one neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass of thorium-234 = 90(1.00728) + 144(1.00866)
Mass of thorium-234 = 90.6552 + 145.24704 = 235.90224 amu
Given mass of thorium-234 = 234.04360 amu
Mass defect = 235.90224 - 234.04360 = 1.85864 amu
Hence required value is 1.85864 amu.

If the forces are equal and in opposite directions, the net force will equal zero.
Consider a tug-of-war team. If they are pulling with equal forces against each other, the red cloth on the rope will not move.
<em>F = ma
</em>
The cloth is not moving, so <em>a = </em>0 and the net force <em>F = </em>0.
Answer:
C-Electrical energy changed into mechanical energy
Explanation:
Energy, according to the law of conservation of energy, is said to neither be created or lost but only interchangeable from one form to another. Energy exists in different forms. The process by which one form of energy changes to another is called TRANSFORMATION of energy.
However, certain household appliances or devices bring about this transformation of energy. For example, in a case where Tony turns a fan on when his room becomes uncomfortably hot. The fan uses an electric source to get powered on, which then facilitates the blades of the fan to move fast in order to bring about a cool atmosphere.
The fan converts ELECTRICAL energy (electric source) into MECHANICAL energy (moving energy).
Answer:
Second Earth's Atmosphere
The second atmosphere, which was the first to remain with the earth, was created by volcanic outgassing and comet ice. There was a lot of water vapor, carbon dioxide, phosphorus, and methane in this atmosphere, but absolutely no oxygen.
Explanation:
<span>If a neutral atom becomes negatively charged, it has undergone reduction.
Reduction is the process through which a neutral atom gain an electron (thus reducing its oxidation number) and turns into a negative ion (also known as : anion)</span>
