Answer:

₈₆²²²Rn    →   ₈₄Po²¹⁸  +  H₂⁴

Explanation:

The given nuclear reaction shows alpha decay.

₈₆²²²Rn    →   ₈₄Po²¹⁸  +  H₂⁴

Properties of alpha radiations:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴  + energy

What are the requirements for combustion of a candle?
cestrela7 [59]
For a candle to burn, it requires a spark, which provides the activation energy for the oxidation reaction of the hydrocarbon making the candle.
It also requires oxygen to facilitate the oxidation of the hydrocarbon.
Therefore the two main requirements of combustion of a candle are oxygen and a spark (or an initial flame)

How does distance affect work pls quick its 15 points pls keep it short pls help!!!!
ra1l [238]
The simple equation used to calculate work is force multiplied by distance, thus as this is the case increasing the distance by a certain amount, assuming the force applied to the object is constant, the amount of work you are doing on the box for instance pushing it, is going to be greater

Since you are pushing the box with the same force covering a greater distance with the force.
