Answer:
When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.
Explanation:
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 2 less than the starting atom.
Properties of alpha radiation:
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
Answer:
Explanation:
The half-life of carbon (5730 y) is the time it takes for half the carbon to decay.
After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.
After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.
We can construct a table.
<u>No of half-lives</u> <u>Fraction remaining</u>
1 
2 
3
The general formula is
where <em>n</em> = the number of half-lives.
Thus, of the original carbon remains after 17 190 y.
Answer:
no it is not, it is only soluable in acid.
hello, the answer to your question would be TRUE!
(this is because a phylum is "a principal taxonomic category that ranks above class and below kingdom.")
