Answer: 226 Subscript 88 Baseline Upper R a right arrow Superscript 222 Subscript 86 Baseline Upper R n + Superscript 4 Subscript 2 Baseline Upper H e

Explanation:

Alpha decay : When a larger nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha particle. In this process, the mass number and atomic number is reduced by 4 and 2 units respectively.

The general representation of alpha decay reaction is:

^{A}_{Z}\textrm{X}\rightarrow ^{A-4}_{Z-2}\textrm {Rn}+ ^{4}_{2}\textrm{He}

Representation of Radium decays to form Radon

^{226}_{88}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow ^{222}_{86}\textrm {Rn}+ ^{4}_{2}\textrm{He}

Thus 226 Subscript 88 Baseline Upper R a right arrow Superscript 222 Subscript 86 Baseline Upper R n + Superscript 4 Subscript 2 Baseline Upper H e represents alpha decay.

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:Rate of change of Velocity per unit time” & definition of Velocity is “Rate of change of Distance per unit Time”. It means that , when acceleration is 0 then , velocity is constant. In short whatever may be the Velocity, if it remains constant then we say that acceleration is zero.

A velocity-time graph shows how what changes over time?
finlep [7]

Answer:

A velocity-time graph shows how velocity changes over time. The sprinter's velocity increases for the first 4 seconds of the race, it remains constant for the next 3 seconds, and it decreases during the last 3 seconds after she crosses the finish line.

calculate the mass required to prepare 2.5 L of 1.0 M NaOH solution. Given that the molar mass for NaOH is 40 g/mol.
Helen [10]

Answer:

The required mass to prepare 2.5 L of 1.0 M NaOH solution is 100 g

Explanation:

We do this by preparing the equation:

Mass = concentration (mol/L) x volume (L) x Molar mass

Mass = 1.0 M x 2.5 L x 40 g/mol

Mass = 100 g
