What are the three types of nuclear particles emitted when a radioactive atom decay?

Chemistry
2 answers:
NISA [10]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Alpha particles, Beta particles and Gamma rays

Explanation:

The emission of particles when a radioactive atom decays is called radioactivity.

An atom is radioactive as a result of unstable nucleus. This unstable nucleus of the atom disinintegrates and leads to emission of Alpha particles, Beta particles and gamma rays.

Alpha particles contain 2 protons and 2 neutrons. They are positively charged

Beta particles are negatively charged

Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves with short wavelength

The iron content of foods can be determined by dissolving them in acid (forming Fe3+), reducing the iron(III) to iron(II), and t
____ [38]

Answer:

  • <em>Oxidation half-reaction</em>:

Fe²⁺(aq) →  Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

  • <em>Reduction half-reaction</em>:

Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ →  Ce³⁺(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • Fe²⁺(aq) + Ce⁴⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + Ce³⁺(aq)

The <em>oxidation half-reaction</em> is:

  • Fe²⁺(aq) →  Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

It is an oxidation because the oxidation state of Fe increases from 2+ to 3+.

The <em>reduction half-reaction</em> is:

  • Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ →  Ce³⁺(aq)

It is a reduction because the oxidation state of Ce decreases from 4+ to 3+.

The polymerization of amino acids produces:
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Proteins

Explanation:

Polymerization, in chemistry, is the chemical combination of monomeric units to form a polymer. Polymers are large molecules made up of smaller units called monomers. Amino acids are the monomeric units of proteins i.e. A protein is made up of of many amino acids joined together.

Therefore, the chemical combination of amino acids will form a peptide bond between the carbon atom of the acid group and nitrogen atom of the amine group in the structure of the amino acids. This is done by the loss of a water molecule. The continuous repetition of this polymerization process will form a chain called polypeptide, which is the PROTEIN.
