Answer: No

Explanation:

_{85}^{218}\textrm{At}\rightarrow _{84}^{218}\textrm{Po}+_{-1}^0\beta

A balanced nuclear equation is one in which the atomic number and mass number remains same on both sides of the equation i.e the number of protons and neutrons remain same.

In the given equation, the atomic number on left hand side is 85 and the mass number is 218. The atomic number on the right hand side will be (84-1)= 83 and the mass number is (218+0)=218. Thus the equation is not balanced as the mass number is same but the atomic number is different.

<em>Answer:</em>

  • No

<em>Reason: </em>

  • During a beta decay, one neutron convert into one proton and one electron. The proton remained in nucleus while electron move away known as beta radiation. So atomic mass will be remained same but atomic no will increase by one. So correct ans will be with 218, 86 Po and beta radiation.

What would be your best course of action if exposed to this hazard?
Olenka [21]

Answer: Option C) Rinse the affected area with cool water for 10-15 minutes.

Explanation:

Once exposed to burns, whether chemical or heat, rinse the affected area of the body with cool water, as water is known to dissolve all burning particles attached to the skin, and cool off the blood vessels lying beneath the burned surface.

Unlike other options provided, rinsing affected area with cool water is the best first aid for skin burns

Ann [662]

Solution:

After the reaction of mixture is worked-up Washing three times the organic  with sodium carbonate helps to decrease the solubility of the organic layer into the aqueous layer. This allows the organic layer to be separated more easily.

And then the reaction washed by saturated NACL we have The bulk of the water can often be removed by shaking or "washing" the organic layer with saturated aqueous sodium chloride (otherwise known as brine). The salt water works to pull the water from the organic layer to the water layer.
