When an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle it decay into an atom with atomic number 2 less and mass number 4 less. Thus Thorium 230 decay as follows.
230 90Th -------> 226 88Th + 4 2 He
thorium is in the atomic number 90 thus it during alpha decay it reduces to atomic number 88 while its 230 mass number reduces to 226
Answer:
Potassium iodide increases the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide.
Explanation:
Potassium iodide increases the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide because potassium iodide act as a catalyst. A catalyst speed up the process of chemical reaction without reacting with the molecules present in reaction. If the potassium iodide is not present as a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide then the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide takes too much time because the catalyst is absent that speed up the reaction.

The new volume : 21.85 ml
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
V1=25,0 ml
P1=725 mmHg
T1=298K is converted to
T2=273'K
P2=760 mmHg atm
Required
V2
Solution
Combined gas law :
Input the value :
V2=(P1.V1.T2)/(P2.T1)
V2=(725 x 25 ml x 273)/(760 x 298)
V2=21.85 ml
