A neutron breaks down to form a proton and an electron.
Change in atomic mass when an atom emits gamma radiation. The gamma radiation consists of photons which have no mass so the mass would remain the same. 
Re the change in atomic number when an atom emits an alpha particle it loses two protons and two neutrons so the atomic number drops by 2.

6. There are three isotopes of silicon. They have mass numbers of 28, 29 and 30. The average atomic mass of silicon is 28.086amu
Elza [17]

Answer:

That means that the isotope that has a mass number of 28 is probably the most abundant. This is because your average atomic mass is 28.086 amu, which is closest to 28.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

average atomic mass=(atomic mass of an isotope)*(fractional abundance)

we are given=

Three isotopes of Silicon, which are Si-28, Si-29 and Si-30.

Average atomic mass of silicon = 28.086 amu

As, the average atomic mass of silicon is closer to the mass of Si-28 isotope. This means that the relative abundance of this isotope is the highest as compared to the other two isotopes.

Percentage abundance of Si-28 isotope = 92.2%

Percentage abundance of Si-29 isotope = 4.7 %

Percentage abundance of Si-30 isotope = 3.1%

Hence, the abundance of Si-28 isotope is the highest as compared to the other isotopes.

Nezavi [6.7K]

speed = distance / time

v = d / t

If we simplify this and isolate t, then we get t = d / v

One problem with using pesticides to control insects on crops is that the insects can develop resistance to the chemicals. How i
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Overuse of antibiotics leads to bacteria's resistance against our drugs. This is increasing at an alarming rate and the reason is that overuse of antibiotics kills bacteria that lack the "resistance" gene or gene that can help them survive the antibiotics (similar is the case for insects that die to insecticides). But, some bacteria can have random mutations in their gene that can help them survive the antibiotic (similar is the case for some insects that can survive the insecticide), thus the surviving bacteria give rise to next generation of bacteria that are resistant to the given antibiotic (similar to how insects that survive the insecticide give birth to new insects that are resistant to insecticide too). Soon, every generation adds new antibiotic resistant bacteria (or new insecticide resistant insects in the case of insects) which is dangerous for all of life on this planet. Therefore, both are similar in the sense that new generations of these organisms will be resistant to our weapons against them.

A 2.10 L vessel contains 4.65 mol of nitrous oxide (N2O) at 3.82 atm. What will be the pressure of this gas in a container that’
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.64 atm

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = V1 = 2.1 l

moles = 4.65

Pressure 1 = P1 = 3.82 atm

Volume 2 = Volume 1/2

Pressure 2 = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the new volume

Volume 2 = 2.10/2

Volume 2 = 1.05 l

2.- Use Boyle's law to find the Pressure

             P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for P2

              P2 = P1V1 / V2

-Substitution

              P2 = (3.82)(2.1) / 1.05

-Simplification

              P2 = 8.022/1.05

-Result

              P2 = 7.64 atm
