Answer:
d. Radon-222
Explanation:
²²⁶₈₈Ra → ²²²₈₆Rn + ⁴₂He
Alpha particle is a helium nucleus with mass number 4 and atomic number 2. According to the law of conversation of mass, the sum of the mass number and atomic number must be equal on both side of the reaction.
Since the mass number of Ra is 226 and that of He is 4. The mass number of the unknown element must be 226 - 4 = 222.
Since the atomic number of Ra is 88 and that of He is 2. The atomic number of the unknown element must be 88 - 2 = 86.
Now looking in the periodic table Radon is the only element with atomic number 86.
Answer:
Carbonic acid could be formed.
Explanation:
Hello,
Based on her claim, it would be a really useful strategy to prevent global warming, nevertheless, there would be a problem if a increasing amount of carbon dioxide is not buried at the bottom of the ocean yet it flows freely along the sea and probably reacting with the water, causing carbonic acid to be formed and subsequently cutting back the sea's pH (increasing its acidity).
It would be useful, but a constant monitoring of the sea's pH must be needed because this could cause some species to be affected not only by the temperature but for the acid pH as well.
Best regards.
the big number describes the number ratio in a chemical equation
so for example,
2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O means
2 moles of hydrogen reacts with one mole of oxygen to form 2 moles of water
and as you know, the small (subscript) number determines the number of atoms of that element in one molecule of a compound
so I believe that drawing a normal lewis structure ( O=O ) should be correct
