Answer:

Helium nuclei is emitted during alpha decay.

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

Example:

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴  + energy

The sodium atom loses an electron to form a sodium ion (Na+). Which statement is correct with respect to its atomic radius?
mixer [17]
Its atomic radius increases because there is less electron shielding after the sodium loses one e-.  Sodium is a nonmetal which means it forms an anion. Anions always increase from their original atomic radius

The good ozone protects us from the UV/ harmful radiations whereas bad ozone is an air pollutant.

Explanation:

  • There are two types of ozone layer found in the earth's atmosphere extending from troposphere to stratosphere. They are good ozone and bad ozone.
  • Bad ozone as mentioned earlier it is an air pollutant and found in the ground level of earth, most accurately the troposphere. Bad ozone is formed in the ground level of earth's atmosphere by the reaction between nitrogen oxides and organic compounds which are volatile
  • The Good ozone is found in the stratosphere layer of the earth's atmosphere. They protect us from harmful radiations. Good ozone layer in the stratosphere of the atmosphere is being destroyed by hydrocarbons, CFCs, and human intervention
