A=mass number   (protons + neutrons)
Z=atomic number  (protons)
N=number of neutrons.

A=Z+N

Data:
A=24
N=13

Therefore:
24=Z+13
Z=24-13=11

Answer: The atomic number of this atom is 11. (The element is sodium)

Tritium 3 1H decays to 3 2He by beta emission. Find the energy released in the process. Answer in units of keV.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The energy released in the decay process = 18.63 keV

Explanation:

To solve this question, we have to calculate the binding energy of each isotope and then take the difference.

The mass of Tritium = 3.016049 amu.

So,the binding energy of Tritium =  3.016049 *931.494 MeV

= 2809.43155 MeV.

The mass of Helium 3 = 3.016029 amu.

So, the binding energy of Helium 3 = 3.016029 * 931.494 MeV

= 2809.41292 MeV.

The difference between the binding energy of Tritium and the binding energy of Helium is: 32809.43155 - 2809.412 = 0.01863 MeV

1 MeV = 1000keV.

Thus, 0.01863 MeV = 0.01863*1000keV = 18.63 keV.

So, the energy released in the decay process = 18.63 keV.

DanielleElmas [232]
The are made from star stuffs...
Galaxies are composed of stars, dust, and dark matter, all held together by gravity. Below we discuss galaxy formation, galactic collisions and other facts about these so-called “island universes.” The Milky Way Galaxy is organized into spiral arms of giant stars that illuminate interstellar gas and dust.
