Answer: The correct answer is Option c.

Explanation:

The equation for the given chemical reaction is:

$_{11}^{22}\textrm{Na}\rightarrow _{10}^{22}\textrm{Ne}+_{?}^{0}\beta$

To know the missing term on the product side, total atomic number and mass number remains the same on both the sides.

Equating the terms of atomic number from both the sides, we get:

$11=10+x\\x=+1$

This decay is called as positron decay in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron neutrino and thus releases positron particles. This particle carries a charge of +1 units.

Hence, the correct answer is Option c.

The term for free electrons in metals transferring energy by colliding with other atoms or electrons is _____.

shepuryov [24]

Conduction

In metals, the electrons of each atom are delocalized, which means they are free to move about in the structure of the metal. When heat is applied at one end of the metal, the electrons there are excited and collide with surrounding particles, transferring their energy to them. This is what makes metals very good conductors of both heat and electricity.

An individual is hospitalized and the initial blood work indicates high levels of $HCO_{3} ^{-}$ in the blood and a pH of 7. 47. This would indicate the individual probably has compensated respiratory acidosis.

A chronic illness usually leads to compensated respiratory acidosis because the kidneys have time to adjust to the delayed onset. Even if the $PCO_{2}$ is elevated in a compensated respiratory acidosis, the pH is within the usual range.

The kidneys counteract a respiratory acidosis by increasing the amount of $HCO_{3}$ that tubular cells reabsorb from the tubular fluid, the amount of $H^{+}$ that collecting duct cells secrete while also producing $HCO_{3}$ , and the amount of $NH_{3}$ buffer that is formed through ammoniagenesis.

Respiratory acidosis is frequently brought on by hypoventilation as a result of: breathing depression , paralysis of the respiratory muscles, diseases of the chest wall , abnormalities of the lung parenchyma and abdominal squeezing.
