7 0

Answer:

yes, they were

Explanation:

The history of the metric system began in the Age of Enlightenment with notions of length and weighttaken from natural ones, and decimal multiples and fractions of them. The system became the standard of France and Europe in half a century. Other dimensions with unity ratios[Note 1] were added, and it went on to be adopted by the world.

Write the beta decay equation for the following isotope: 91 38 Sr? Please write out steps
babymother [125]

Answer:

\rm _{38}^{91}Sr \longrightarrow \,  _{-1}^{0}e + \,  _{39}^{91}Y

Explanation:

The unbalanced nuclear equation is

\rm _{38}^{91}Sr \longrightarrow \,  _{-1}^{0}e \, + \, ?

Let's write the question mark as a nuclear symbol.

\rm _{38}^{91}Se} \longrightarrow \,  _{-1}^{0}e \, + \,  _{Z}^{A}X

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that the sums of the superscripts and the subscripts must be the same on each side of the equation.  

Then

98 =  0 + A, so A =  98 -  0 = 98, and

38 = -1 + Z, so Z  = 38 + 1 = 39

Then, your nuclear equation becomes

\rm _{38}^{91}Sr \longrightarrow \,  _{-1}^{0}e + \,  _{39}^{91}X

Element 39 is yttrium, so the balanced nuclear equation is

\rm _{38}^{91}Sr \longrightarrow \,  _{-1}^{0}e + \,  _{39}^{91}Y
