They can decay through one of three ways:
alpha decay
beta decay and
gamma decay
ALPHA- particle with two neutrons and two protons is ejected from the nucleus of the radioactive atom. this particle released is called an alpha particle. Only occurs with heavy metals.
BETA- pretty much when a proton is transformed into a neutron, or vise versa. in a beta minus decay, the nuetron decays into a proton and in a beta plus decay, a proton decays into a neutron
GAMMA- the nucleus changes from a high energy state to a low energy state by releasing electromagnetic radiation (photons). the number of protons and neutrons stay the same during this reaction therefore the element is still the same.
Answer:
It's a physical property because color is chemically not significant.
But occurance of a flame is chemical property because combustion takes place
Answer and explanation:
The attached figure shows five different structures for the chemical formula C4H5O5, but only one of these structures represent the malic acid.
Malic acid is a dicarboxylic acid, this means malic acid has two
-COOH groups. Also, malic acid is a secundary alcohol, which means it has a R2-C-OH group.
-Structure A has two carboxylic groups, but it doesn´t have a secundary alcohol.
-Structure B doesn´t have any caborxylic group.
-Structure C has two carboxylic groups and it is a secundary alcohol. Structure C is the Malic acid
Tin is the shortest chemical element on the Periodic Table.
