In beta decay, what is emitted?

Chemistry
1 answer:
stiks02 [169]3 years ago
5 0
<span>In beta minus (β−) decay, a neutron is converted to a proton and the process creates an electron and an electron antineutrino; while in beta plus (β+) decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and the process creates a positron and an electron neutrino. β+ decayis also known as positron emission.</span>

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

D. As water flows through the channels toward the turbines, it has kinetic energy. This is changed to mechanical energy as the water turns the turbines. Then the mechanical energy of the turbines is changed to electrical energy by the generator.

Explanation:

I hope this helps. :)

The half life of 226/88 Ra is 1620 years. How much of a 12 g sample of 226/88 Ra will be left after 8 half lives?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.0468 g.

Explanation:

  • The decay of radioactive elements obeys first-order kinetics.
  • For a first-order reaction: k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).

Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.

t1/2 is the half-life time of the reaction (t1/2 = 1620 years).

∴ k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1620 years) = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.

  • For first-order reaction: <em>kt = lna/(a-x).</em>

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹).

t is the time of the reaction (t = t1/2 x 8 = 1620 years x 8 = 12960 year).

a is the initial concentration (a = 12.0 g).

(a-x) is the remaining concentration.

∴ kt = lna/(a-x)

(4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(12960 year) = ln(12)/(a-x).

5.54688 = ln(12)/(a-x).

Taking e for the both sides:

256.34 = (12)/(a-x).

<em>∴ (a-x) = 12/256.34 = 0.0468 g.</em>
