Answer:
Radium-226 is a radioactive decay product in the uranium-238 decay series and is the precursor of radon-222. Radium-228 is a radioactive decay product in the thorium-232 decay series. Both isotopes give rise to many additional short-lived radionuclides, resulting in a wide spectrum of alpha, beta and gamma radiations.
Answer:
C. It is reactive because it must gain two electrons to have a full outermost energy level.
Step-by-step explanation:
The electron configuration of this element ends in 2s²2p⁴.
A filled energy level would end in 2s²2p⁶.
The element will be reactive, because it must gain electrons to have a full energy level, and it needs two more electrons to do this.
Answer:
1-Pentene
Explanation:
If we look at all the options listed, we will notice that the rate of reaction of bromine with each one differs significantly.
For 1-pentene, addition of bromine across the double bond is a relatively fast process. It is usually used as a test for unsaturation. Bromine water is easily decolorized by alkenes.
Cyclohexane, heptane are alkanes. They can only react with chlorine in the presence of sunlight. This is a substitution reaction. It does not occur easily. A certain quantum of light is required for the reaction to occur.
For benzene, bromine can only react with it by electrophilic substitution in which the benzene ring is retained. A Lewis acid is often required for the reaction to occur and it doesn't occur easily.
