Why are some isotopes radioactive and some are not?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Otrada [13]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: there are atoms that either have too many or too few neutrons or protons in their nuclei. This results in an imbalance between the jedi forces holding them together, which leads to an excess of internal energy. Such atoms are said to be unstable or radioactive.

Answer:

D) The baby will continue to move forward as the car slows and be push into the padded car seat.

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that an object tends to be in a state of rest or motion unless and until an unbalanced external force acts on it. This means a body would continue to be in a state of motion unless external force stops it. A body in the state of rest will remain at rest unless an external force moves it.

An infant car seat is made to face the rear of the car. This is because, in case of a front-end collision, the car would come to a sudden stop but the bodies inside the car are in a state of motion and a sudden halt will cause the body to push in the opposite direction.

Thus, for an infant in the car, it would be a safer measure to place the seat facing the rear o the car because in this case, it would cause the baby to safely collide with the padded seat of the car.

The relative atomic mass of an element is the mass of its atoms compared with that of which element?
mariarad [96]
In calculating the relative atomic mass of an element with isotopes<span>, the relative mass and proportion of each is taken into account. For example, naturally occurring chlorine consists of atoms of relative isotopic masses 35 (75%) and 37 (25%). Its relative atomic mass is 35.5.</span>
