In this nuclear reaction, a neutron is used to catalyze the decay of U-235. Four products were produced: Ba-139, two neutrons, and an unknown element X.

To calculate this, you must know that what you start with should be what you end with. The reaction occurred with 236 atomic mass units (U-235 and one neutron), so the final products should add up to 236.

Taking away Barium and the two neutrons:
236-141 = 95.
Now, we know that the element will have an overall mass of 95.

The number of protons should have stayed the same through the reaction as well, since the element didn’t undergo Beta or Positron decay. Starting with 92 protons (92 U), and subtracting the 56 contained in the Barium atom, the final number is 36 protons - the atomic number for Krypton.

Element X is Kr-95.

I believe that crude oil is derived from plants because it is made up of a liquid that is found beneath the earth surface so I guess you could go with plants it is not an animal or rock or salt so.. could be brainliest not 100% sure so if you are not sure go with your gut

7. A species is _ when its population has become so low that it is close to becoming extinct

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Endangered. The meaning of endangered is when a species declines in number- this might be because they are being eaten by another animal which has a higher popupayion, or perhaps because they are being hunted by humans for their meat or fur. Neither reason might be that their food or habitat has been destroyed b humans to create land for farming or housing. one example of name endangered species is Polar Bears: they like in the Antarctic where there is no land, simply ice. Due to humans causing climate change, the world is warming up and the ice is melting. This means polar bears are dying out because it would be too tiring to swim to find ice. For the same reason, other animals are dying in the Antarctic meaning that Poplar Bears have less to eat (being at the top of the food chain -no animal eats polar bears).
