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}

A gas occupies 25.3 at pressure of 790.5 mmHg. Determine the volume if the pressure is reduced to 8.04 mmHg
taurus [48]

Answer:

2487.51.

Explanation:

As per Boyle's law temperature remaining constant the volume of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.

pV= k

therefore, p1V1 = p2V2

here V1 = 25.3, p2 = 8.04mm Hg

pressure p1 = 790.5 mm Hg

this means that

25.3×790.5 = 8.04V2

⇒V2= 2487.51

Hence, the required volume is, 2487.51.

3<br> Write the alpha decay WITH gamma emission for the following element:<br> 92<br> AL<br> 27
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In alpha decay alpha ray comes out . Apha ray is nothing but nucleus of helium atom whose atomic no  is 2 and atomic weight is 4 . Hence in alpha decay , atomic weight reduces by 4 and atomic no reduces by 2. For gamma emission , there is no change in atomic number and atomic mass.

⁹²₂₇AL ⇒ ⁸⁸₂₅X + ⁴₂He + γ

X is Manganese .
