<h3>Answer:</h3>
Curium-247 <em>i.e.</em> ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Alpha decay is given by following general equation,
ᵃₓA → ⁴₂He + ᵃ⁻⁴ₓ₋₂B
Where;
A = Parent Isotope
B = Daughter Isotope
ᵃ = Mass Number
ₓ = Atomic Number
Californium-251 is the parent isotope in our case and it has 98 protons (atomic number) and is given as,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf
The alpha decay reaction of Californium-251 will be as,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf → ⁴₂He + ²⁴⁷₉₆B
The symbol for B with atomic number 96 was found to be the atom of Curium (Cm) by inspecting periodic table. Hence, the final equation is as follow,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf → ⁴₂He + ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm
D) refracted
because , the light changes direction.. causing the penny to look bigger than it is.
Answer:
It is not a gas because its particles do not have large space between them.
total pressure = ( 705 torr + 231.525torr) = 936.525torr
