Answer 1: The electron is a subatomic particle that has a negative charge. Electron cannot be sub-divided further. An electron has a mass that ia ~ 1/1836 that of the proton.
The positron is also refereed as an antielectron. The positron has the charge of +1e, a spin of 1⁄2. The similarity between positron and electron is that they have same mass.
Answer 2: <span>Positron decay occurs in nuclei having heavy mass. Positron emission decreases proton number relative to the neutron number. Positron also exhibits nuclear transmutation thereby producing an atom of a different element, as compared to parent element,. Them atomic number of daughter element is less as compared to parent element by 1.
Example: </span><span><span>23 12</span>Mg </span><span>→ </span><span><span>23 11</span>Na </span><span> + </span><span>e+ </span><span>+ energy
</span><span>
Answer 3: </span><span>Electron capture is also referred as </span>K-electron capture. It <span>involves absorption of energy, thereby resulting in loss of electron usually from K or L shell. In this process,following thing occurs simultaneously
i) a nuclear proton present in nuclei changes to a neutron, after reacting with an electron which falls into the nucleus from one of its orbitals (preferentially from K or L)
2) Emission of an electron neutrino.
Following is an example of K-electron capture.
7 4Be + 0 -1e </span>→ 7 3Li + energy
Answer 4: Following are the distinct features of <span>transmutations caused by positron emissions and electron capture.
i) Positron: </span><span>A proton get converted into neutron due to radio-active process. This process results in the emission of positron and neutrino. The<span> process results in decrease in atomic number by one unit, and however atomic mass number remains unchanged.
ii) Electron capture: </span></span><span>A electron from the low energy level (K-shell or L-shell) falls into the nucleus. Due to this proton is converted into neutron. During this process, neutrino is emitted from the nucleus. As seen in positron emission, t<span>he atomic number goes down by one unit, but atomic mass number remains unchanged.</span></span>
Answer:
6.475 M
Explanation:
Number of moles = 25.9 moles
Volume = 4.00 L
Molarity = ?
The relationship between the quantities is given as;
Molarity = Number of moles / Volume
Molarity = 25.9 / 4
Molarity = 6.475 M
We won't be able to see the moon
equation is balanced when the number of molecules are the equal in both reacting side and the product side.
Li(s) + n2(g) ---> Li3n(s)
From the equation above the reaction is not balanced since the molecules are not equal in both reacting side and the product side.
The reaction is balanced by adding 6 in front of Li and 2 infront of Li3n
that is
6Li(s) + n2(g)-----> 2Li3n(s)
Answer:
two north poles and two south poles
Explanation:
A single magnet has a north pole and a south pole. If it is broken into two pieces, then each of the two pieces will have a north pole and a south pole.
No matter how many times or into how many pieces a magnet is broken, the resulting pieces will have two poles each.
