The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "They are both balanced chemical equations." The <span>statement that is correct about the chemical reaction is that both chemical reaction are balanced chemical equations.</span>
Answer:
Lead Pb
Explanation:
Firstly, we need to know what occurs when a radioisotope emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle is an helium atom. When an isotope emits an alpha particle, it loses an helium atom corresponding to subtracting 4 from its mass number and 2 from its atomic number. This of course coupled with the release of radiation.
Now, we polonium has a proton number of 84 and a mass number of 210. Subtracting 2 and 4 respectively from its proton and mass numbers will yield 82 and 206 proton and mass numbers respectively.
Hence, the decomposition of the Po-210 isotope will yield an element with 82 proton number and 206 mass number. This corresponds to the element Lead.
210Po ——> 206Pb + alpha particle + radiation
I am not sure what you are asking, but TT likely refers to the pure tall peas Mendel worked with.
