Alpha partical is a He nucleus. When decaying alpha particle mass is reduced by 4 and atomic number is reduced by 2.

The actual element which has 102 protons is No (Nobelium). 
Since it has 167 neutrons, the mass = protons + neutrons = 102 + 167 = 269

after an alpha decay, the new element formed has 100 protons which is Fm ( Fermium)

the alpha decaying equation is,

    ₁₀₂²⁶⁹No → ₁₀₀²⁶⁵Fm + ₂⁴α + heat

the total mass and the atomic number( numbe rof protons) must be equal in both sides.

All of the following statements concerning voltaic cells are true EXCEPT
MissTica

Answer:

oxidation occurs at the cathode.

Explanation:

In a voltaic cell electrons move from anode to cathode. At the anode, species give up electrons. This is an oxidation reaction depicted by the oxidation half equation. At the cathode, species accept electrons and become reduced. This is depicted by the reduction half equation. In summary; in a Voltaic cell, oxidation occurs at the anode while reduction occurs at the cathode.

J. Explain how an atom's valence electron configuration determines its place on the periodic table.​
Darya [45]

Answer:

Elements having same valence electrons are placed in <u>same group.</u>

Explanation:

First, let's start with some basic concepts of modern periodic table:

1. Modern Periodic table : It is the arrangement of element in the increasing order of their atomic numbers

The Modern periodic table is divided into Periods and groups .

Periods : These are the horizontal rows. There are seven periods in the periodic table . Period 1 has 2 element. Period two and three has 8 elements , period 4 and 5 have 18 elements and the period 6 and 7 have 32 elements.

Same period have same number of atomic orbital(Shell)

Group : The group is the vertical columns . There are 18 groups in the modern periodic table.Those element which have same group number will also have same number of electron in their outermost shell. The number of electron in the outermost shell determines the valency of the element.

So, elements showing same valency are placed in same group.

All alkali are place in group 1 and have 1 valance electron in the outermost shell

Separating techniques - Chromatography
vodomira [7]

The method that can be used to separate the mixture is chromatography.

<h3>What is chromatography?</h3>

"Chromatography" is obtained form a Greek word which literarily means, color writing. It is a method of separation which is common in separating a mixture of pigments.

To obtain the colors used, two solvents are mixed and the sample ink is dissolved in the solvents then spotted on a thin layer and put into a TLC chamber then the chromatogram is allowed to develop.

The various components of the pigment will appear on the chromatogram and can be identified using spectrophotometry. The Rf values of each component can also be used to identify it.'
