Answer:

Positron emission

Explanation:

Positron emission involves the conversion of a proton to a neutron. This process increases the mass number of the daughter nucleus by 1 while its atomic number remains the same. The new neutron increases the number of neutrons present in the daughter nucleus hence the process increases the N/P ratio.

A positron is usually ejected in the process together with an anti-neutrino to balance the spins.

Answer the following Question Down Below...

bonufazy [111]

The mass number of the atom is 21, the atomic number is 9, and the element is Fluorine. There are 9 protons, 9 electrons, 12 neutrons, and the elemental symbol is F.

<h3>Properties of an atom</h3>

For every atom:

Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus and the addition of both equals the mass number of atoms.
Electrons are located outside the nucleus, in orbitals.
Neutral atoms have the same number of electrons and protons

In the diagram:

Number of electrons = 9

Number of protons = 9

Number of neutrons = 12

Mass number = 12 + 9

= 21

Atomic number = number of protons

= 9

Element with atomic number 9 = Fluorine

Symbol of the element = F

How is an ion different from the parent ion

bonufazy [111]

<span> Chemical properties depend on electron configuration. By either gaining or losing electrons, an atom changes its electron configuration and therefore its chemical properties also change. 9.</span>

1. The solubility of AgNO3 at 20°C is 222.0g AgNO3/100g H2O. What mass of AgNO3 can be dissolved in 250 g of water at 20°C? Reca

neonofarm [45]

Answer :

(1) The mass of silver nitrate is, 555 g

(2) The solubility of the gas will be, 0.433 g/L

<u>Solution for Part 1 :</u>

From the given data we conclude that

In 100 gram of water, the amount of silver nitrate = 222 g

In 250 gram of water, the amount of silver nitrate = $\frac{222}{100}\times 250=555g$
