19) The nuclear symbol of helium,
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Alpha particle

Explanation:

The helium symbol is also used to represent he alpha particles.

For example:

The americium with atomic wight  224 undergo alpha decay and produce

₉₃Np²³⁷ . The alpha particle emitted is also called helium nuclei. During this decay some gamma radiations also produce as a byproduct.

₉₅Am²²⁴   →    ₉₃Np²³⁷ + ₂He⁴

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

Extension: Cedric has been in the hospital for 15 weeks, how many minutes is that? Use
almond37 [142]

Answer:

151200 minutes.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (in week) = 15 weeks

Time (in min) =?

Next, we shall convert 15 weeks to days. This can be obtained as follow:

1 week = 7 days

Therefore,

15 weeks = 15 weeks × 7 days / 1 week

15 weeks = 105 days

Next, we shall convert 105 days to hours. This can be obtained as follow:

1 day = 24 h

Therefore,

105 days = 105 days × 24 h / 1 day

105 days = 2520 h

Finally, we shall convert 2520 h to mins. This can be obtained as follow:

1 h = 60 mins

Therefore,

2520 h = 2520 h × 60 mins / 1 h

2520 h = 151200 mins

Thus, 15 weeks is equivalent to 151200 minutes.

During which change of state would the volume of a substance increase the most?
Alika [10]

Answer:

The most state has the high volume is the gas state.

So here the answer is vaporization!!!!

Explanation:

The most state has the high volume is the gas state.

So here the answer is between vaporization and sublimation???

and when the sublimation is: the change of the material from the solid state to the gas state directly without pass to liquid state from the solid first then to the gas

and the vaporization is : The change of the material from the liquid state to the gas state by heating Ex: water vaporize at 100°

here, the answer is sublimation because the difference of volume which resulted from this process is more than the volume resulted from vaporization.
