The answer is C. They lower the activation energy of an elementary step of a reaction
This makes the reaction rate to increase since less energy is required to make a reaction occur.
If it is a really humid warm day, have you ever noticed that's when all electrical storms occur
Answer:
The minimum number of boxes of pencils to be ordered is 630 boxes.
Explanation:
Since a pupil uses averagely 9.3 pencils
and a box contains 12 pencils,
the school enrollment is also 812
school's enrollment x average use of pencil per student
__________________________________________
number of pencils in a box
812 x 9.3 = 7551.6
7551.6 /12 = 629.3
Having a total number of 630 boxes of pencils to be ordered.
Answer:
Alpha particle
Explanation:
The helium symbol is also used to represent he alpha particles.
For example:
The americium with atomic wight 224 undergo alpha decay and produce
₉₃Np²³⁷ . The alpha particle emitted is also called helium nuclei. During this decay some gamma radiations also produce as a byproduct.
₉₅Am²²⁴ → ₉₃Np²³⁷ + ₂He⁴
Properties of alpha radiation:
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 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than 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.
