<h3>
Answer:</h3>
Lead-205 (Pb-205)
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;
- Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
- When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
- Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
- The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.
- The equation for the decay is;
²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He
- Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.
D. Is a fly shot effective in preventing the flu?
Answer A touches on the topics of economics and industrial feasibility of the flu shot.
B is more of an ethical / situational question.
C is a social question.
D is the only question which focuses on the science of microbiology and medicine.
Answer:
0.8 mL of protein solution, 9.2 mL of water
Explanation:
The dilution equation can be used to relate the concentration C₁ and volume V₁ of the stock/undiluted solution to the concentration C₂ and volume V₂ of the diluted solution:
C₁V₁ = C₂V₂
We would like to calculate the value for V₁, the volume of the inital solution that we need to dilute to make the required solution.
V₁ = (C₂V₂) / C₁ = (2mg/mL x 10mL) / (25 mg/mL) = 0.8 mL
Thus, a volume of 0.8 mL of protein solution should be diluted with enough water to bring the total volume to 10 mL. The amount of water needed is:
(10 mL - 0.8 mL) = 9.2 mL
Answer:
The direct channels by which extraction can affect the economy are of particular interest. The development of mines or oil and gas fields can result in significant shocks to a regional economy, generating jobs and drawing in capital from other regions and countries.
