The bodies of water tend to have moderate temperature swings because of the high heat capacity of water. The heat capacity is the ability of a substance to retain heat energy. The water in seas and oceans become warm during the day time, but take time to loose heat in the night. This gradual loss of heat energy maintains a moderate temperature around the shoreline.

When 238u92 becomes , 234Th90 what type of decay has taken place?

ruslelena [56]

Answer: alpha

Explanation: Alpha particles are fast moving streams of positively charged particles that are shown to be Helium nuclei. They have a mass

number of 4 and an atomic number of 2 and a charge of +2. Alpha particles are represented as 4He2. When 238U92 becomes 234Th90, it emitted a helium nucleus 4He2. The equation for the decay is 238U92 ---> 234Th90 + 4He2.
