Answer:   A. a substance that is alkaline

Explanation: Base is defined as the substance which is alkaline in nature.

It is the species which can accept a proton because of the lone pair of electrons or vacant orbitals present on them.

It is that species which donates its OH- ions to the solution (Arrhenius Base)

It is a substance which has a high pH value as low pH values belongs the the acidic species.

A species which can donate its H+ ion is known as Acidic species.

The correct answer is A
its not D because a low pH is a acid
its not C because a base releases OH- ions
its not B because it donates and releases OH- ions

hope this helps

The radioactive atom R 88 210 a is an alpha emitter. What nucleus does it produce?
olasank [31]

Answer:

X 86 206

Explanation:

Radioactive atoms are nuclei that can under go disintegration to emit either an alpha particle, beta particle or gamma radiation. The process could be spontaneous or stimulated.

When a radioactive atom R 88 210 emits alpha particle, it would produce an element with atomic number 86 and mass number 206 i.e X 86 206. An alpha particle is usually a helium nucleus.

                     R^{210} ⇒ x^{206} + He^{4} + energy

Neptunium-237 was the first isotope of a transuranium element to be discovered. the decay constant is /s. what is the half-life
kari74 [83]

The half-life in years of Neptunium-237 which was the first isotope is 2.1 10^{6} years.

Neptunium is most stable and Neptunium-237 is undergoes alpha decay, it means Neptunium-237 is decays by the emission of alpha particles . Seven alpha particles is emitted during decay of  Neptunium-237.  Neptunium-237 is radioactive actinide  elements and first  transuranium element.

The transuranium synthesis process involves creating a transuranium element through the transmutation process . The transmutation process  is the process of creating heavy elements from light elements. Hence the process is the transmutation of light elements. There are two types: artificial and natural transmutation.
