The answer is: D.unstable nuclei emitting high-energy particles as they formed more stable compositions.
Those high-energy particles are alpha particles
, beta particles
, gamma radiation.
For example, the decay chain of ²³⁸U is called the uranium series.
Decay start with U-238 and ends with Pb-206. There are several alpha and beta minus decays.
Antoine Henri Becquerel (1852 – 1908) was a French physicist and the first person to discover evidence of radioactivity.
Becquerel wrapped fluorescing crystal (uranium salt potassium uranyl sulfate) in a cloth, along with the photographic plate and a copper Maltese cross.
Several days later, he discovered that a image of the cross appeared on the plate.
The uranium salt was emitting radiation.
Because of this discovery, Becquerel won a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, which he shared with Marie Curie and Pierre Curie.
Answer:
0.0745 mole of hydrogen gas
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of H₂SO₄ = 0.0745 moles
Number of moles of Li = 1.5107 moles
Unknown:
Number of moles of H₂ produced = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we have to work from the known specie to the unknown one.
The known specie in this expression is the sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄. We can compare its number of moles with that of the unknown using a balanced chemical equation.
Balanced chemical equation:
2Li + H₂SO₄ → Li₂SO₄ + H₂
From the balanced equation;
Before proceeding, we need to obtain the limiting reagent. This is the reagent whose given proportion is in short supply. It determines the extent of the reaction.
2 mole of Li reacted with 1 mole of H₂SO₄
1.5107 mole of lithium will react with
= 0.7554mole of H₂SO₄
But we were given 0.0745 moles,
This suggests that the limiting reagent is the sulfuric acid because it is in short supply;
since 1 mole of sulfuric acid produced 1 mole of hydrogen gas;
0.0745 mole of sulfuric acid will produce 0.0745 mole of hydrogen gas
The rate of growth is faster in the (10 - 14) age group and slows down after the age of 14. After the age of 16 the growth is the slowest
Answer:
Detail is given below
Explanation:
Atomic radii trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.
In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm
In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N
In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.
