Answer:

Alpha decay is a type of radioactive disintegration in which unstable atomic nucleus releases a helium nucleus or alpha particle and transform into a different element. The new element formed will be reduced by four and the atomic number will be reduced by two.

Example of alpha decay is: Uranium 238 transform into Thorium 234 with the emission of an alpha particle.

Sewage and industrial pollutants dumped into a body of water can reduce the dissolved oxygen concentration and adversely affect
MArishka [77]

Answer:

FALSE

Since 0.385 < 0.526, the value for week 3 is accepted.

Explanation:

Qexp = (|Xq - Xₙ₋₁|)/w

where Xq is the suspected outlier; Xₙ₋₁ is the next nearest data point; w is the range of data

First, the data are arranged in decreasing order, from highest to lowest:

3. 5.6

2. 5.1

8. 5.1

1. 4.9

6. 4.9

5. 4.7

7. 4.5

4. 4.3

Xq = 5.6; Xₙ₋₁ = 5.1; w = 5.6 - 4.3 = 1.3

Qexp = (|5.6 - 5.1|)/1.3 = 0.385

From tables, at 95% confidence level, for n = 8, Qcrit = 0.526

Since 0.385 < 0.526, the value for week 3 is accepted.
