In a beta emission, the mass number of the daughter nucleus remains unchanged while the atomic number of the daughter nucleus increases by one unit. The following are isotopes produced when the following undergo beta emission;
1) potassium-42 ------> Ca - 42
2) iodine-131 ------------> Xe - 131
3) iron-52 ---------------> Co - 52
4) sodium-24 -----------> Mg -24
The daughter nucleus formed after beta emission is found one place after its parent in the periodic table.
Regarding the stability of the daughter nuclei, a nucleus is unstable if the neutron-proton ratio is less than 1 or greater than 1.5.
Hence, the following daughter nuclei are stable; Ca - 42, Xe - 131, Mg -24.

The motion of the molecules decreases.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Gases are formed when the energy in a system overcomes the attractive forces between the molecules. The gases expand to fill the space they occupy. In this way, the gas molecules interact little. In the gaseous state, the molecules move very quickly. As the temperature decreases, the amount of movement of the individual molecules also decreases.
- The fast-moving particle slows down. When a particle speeds up, it has more kinetic energy. When a particle slows down, it has less kinetic energy. The particles in solid form are commonly connected through electrostatic powers. They don't get enough space to move around, therefore, their speed diminishes, they can't keep their standard speed like in the vaporous or fluid state.
First question. Applying ideal gas equation PV=nRT, P= 101.3 x 10³Pa = 1atm. therefore, 1 x 260 x 10^-3 = n x 0.082 x 294.( Temperature in kelvin=273+21). n = 0.01 moles. Volume of gas at STP= n x 22.4 = 0.01x22.4 = 0.224L. Hope this helps
