Answer:
Paraffin oil is used for determination of boiling point and melting point for the following reasons: It has a very high boiling point and so it can be used to maintain high temperatures in the boiling and melting point apparatus without loss of the substance.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Curium-247 <em>i.e.</em> ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Alpha decay is given by following general equation,
ᵃₓA → ⁴₂He + ᵃ⁻⁴ₓ₋₂B
Where;
A = Parent Isotope
B = Daughter Isotope
ᵃ = Mass Number
ₓ = Atomic Number
Californium-251 is the parent isotope in our case and it has 98 protons (atomic number) and is given as,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf
The alpha decay reaction of Californium-251 will be as,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf → ⁴₂He + ²⁴⁷₉₆B
The symbol for B with atomic number 96 was found to be the atom of Curium (Cm) by inspecting periodic table. Hence, the final equation is as follow,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf → ⁴₂He + ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm
Explanation:
When the reaction takes place,2 grams of carbon dioxide will be made but vaporized into air.
