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.

aniked [119]

Answer:

Temperature usually increases when water condenses. What behavior of water is most directly responsible for this phenomenon? The release of heat by the formation of hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds stabilize and keep the of ice farther apart than the water molecules of liquid water.

Elements of modern periodic table are arrang in ---Group 2A elements are called ------ and group 7A element table are called....
pentagon [3]

Answer:

c) atomic number / alkaline earth metals/ and halogens

Explanation:

Elements of modern periodic table are arrang in atomic number; for its electron configuration and its chemical properties. This arrangement shows periodic trends.

Alkaline earth metals are a group of elements that are located in group 2 of the Periodic Table and are the following: Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), Barium (Ba) and Radio (Ra).

The Halogens are the chemical elements that form group 17 (XVII A, previously used) or group VII A of the periodic table: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At) and teneso (Ts)
