<span>Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy. This reaction releases heat energy or light .
In an endotermic reaction energy is used.
Enthaply is the heat energy change , delta H.
If the sum of the enthalpies of the reactans is greater than the products the reaction is exothermic. If the products side has a larger enthaply than the process is endothermic. So, if delta H is negative then the process is exothermic. If delta H is positive, than the process is endothermic.
Exothermic are: A+BC -> AB+C
A2+B2 -> 2AB
Endothermic are:AB+C -> AC+B
A2 + C2 -> 2AC
B2+C2 -> 2BC</span>
Beta decay is very complex phenomena in natural radioactive decay. There are 3 types of Beta decay.
B+ decay (Beta plus or Beta positive or positron decay):
is the conversion of a proton into a neutron plus a positron and an electron neutrino.
B- decay (Beta negative or Beta nought):
is the conversion of a neutron into a proton plus an electron and a electron antineutrino.
Note: a positron is the a positive electron or the antiparticle of the electron.
Hope it helps
Newtons are used to measure force
Gpe is basses on the force equation...
GPE=m*g*h=1.5kg*9.8m/s^2*8m=117.6 N*m
