Making repeated separations of the various substances in the pitchblende, Marie and Pierre used the Curie electrometer to identify the most radioactive fractions. They thus discovered that two fractions, one containing mostly bismuth and the other containing mostly barium, were strongly radioactive.
<h3>What was surprising about pitchblende?</h3>
Since it was no longer appropriate to call them “uranic rays,” Marie proposed a new name: “radioactivity.”
Even more surprising, Marie next found that a uranium ore called pitchblende contained two powerfully radioactive new elements: polonium, which she named for her native Poland, and radium.
<h3>Why is radium more radioactive than uranium?</h3>
It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.

The rate of photosynthesis was measured by counting the amount of oxygen, a product of photosynthesis, generated by the plant. When the plant placed closer to the light source in a given time it generated more bubbles than when it was placed farther away from the light source.
I would say 4 but you can figure it out or if you have a parent near by to
Group 1 elements since they have one outermost electron which they can give to chlorine which has 7 outermost electrons in order to form a stable compound.
Example
Pottasium (K) + Chlorine (Cl) = Potassium Chloride (KCL)
A hydrogen atom has 0 charge because its two constituents are oppositely charged; and understand p + q as the number located a distance |q| from p, in the positive or negative direction depending on whether q is positive or negative.
