4 0
Barium oxide is a white, hygroscopic non-flammable compound. It also takes on the form of a cubic structure and is used in cathode ray tubes, crown glass, and catalysts.

It's known to be very harmful to human skin and if swallowed in large quantities it causes irritation. Excessive quantities of barium oxide can and most likely will lead to death.

Consider the nuclear equation below. Superscript 235 subscript 92 upper U right arrow superscript 4 subscript 2 upper H e. What
Leto [7]

Answer: The nuclide symbol of X is ^{231}_{90}\textrm{Th}

Explanation:

The given nuclear reaction is a type of alpha decay process. In this process, the nucleus decays by releasing an alpha particle. The mass number of the nucleus is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is also decreased by 2 units. The particle released is a helium nucleus.

The general equation representing alpha decay process is:

_{Z}^{A}\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\textrm{He}

For the given equation :

^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}\rightarrow ^{A}_{Z}\textrm{X}+^4_2\textrm{He}

As the atomic number and mass number must be equal on both sides of the nuclear equation:

^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}\rightarrow ^{231}_{90}\textrm{Th}+^4_2\textrm{He}

Thus the nuclide symbol of X is ^{231}_{90}\textrm{Th}

How are the three phrases of agriculture (shifting, labor-intensive, mechanized monoculture) different in terms of description,
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Shifting, labor intensive and monoculture are different in terms of description,restrictions and problem.

Shifting is an agriculture method in which an area if land is cultivated for a while and abandoned for the soil to regain and preserve it's fertility. It is done to restore soul fertility.

It has restrictions because it is done in places where there is large areas of land, if there is not large area of land, it will be done.

It can lead to defforestation because trees are cut fine for land cultivation and after a while the land is abandoned and trees are cut down some where else too.

Labor intensive refers to agricultural industry requiring or needing large amount of labor to produce agricultural products. Labor intensive is restricted to areas where there is low or no people who can engage in agricultural services.

Labor intensive require high skilled people which might not be available.

Monoculture is a farming system where by a single crop is cultivated in an area of land.

The problem of monoculture is that it displaces species and nutrients occuring naturally in an ecosystem.

Monoculture is restricted in areas where diversity of crops are needed.
