Explanation:

This process ensures that the pressure inside of the graduated cylinder is the same as the atmospheric pressure in the room.

Suppose the level of water inside and outside the cylinder is same, pressure stays the same. Therefore, total pressure of the is made equal to atmospheric pressure by adjusting the height of cylinder. it is done till the water level is equal.

What is the product if an atom of Po-209<br> undergoes alpha decay?
g100num [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Lead-205 (Pb-205)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • An atom of Po-209

We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;

  • Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
  • When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
  • Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
  • The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.
  • The equation for the decay is;

²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He

  • Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.

Do you feel that people’s safety is compromised when they live near a nuclear power plant? Why or why not? What sort of informat
Olegator [25]
So, personally, I think it's not that safe to live right by a nuclear plant because it contains radioactive energy and that is unhealthy to the human body. Living by one a person should also take the precautions that it could have a malfunction and that could cause a fatal accident, an explosion. With that radioactive energy is released and both ruins the area and destroys everything. Well my answer is not that great but I hope this helps.
