The first one has 35 atoms and the elements hydrogen, oxygen and chlorine
The second one has 9 atoms and the elements sodium, carbon, and helium
Answer: There are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
Explanation:
Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.
Beta Decay : It is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron. This is also known as -decay. In this the mass number remains same but the atomic number is increased by 1.
In radioactive decay the sum of atomic number or mass number of reactants must be equal to the sum of atomic number or mass number of products .
Thus for mass number : 235 = 207+4X
4X= 28
X = 7
Thus for atomic number : 92 = 82+2X-Y
2X- Y = 10
2(7) - Y= 10
14-10 = Y
Y= 4
Thus there are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
Answer:
B. Negative ion with a radius larger than the radius of the atom
Explanation:
When a negative ion is formed, electrons are added to the atom. As electrons are added to the atom, the size of the electron cloud increases accordingly.
As a result of this, a negative ion is always larger than its corresponding atom. Hence, nitrogen ion must be larger than the nitrogen atom based on the facts stated above.
They discovered this since S waves don’t travel through the earth but P waves do. P waves tend to travel faster than S waves in speed, 1&14km/s vs 1&8km/s
Answer:
Calcium
Explanation:
The symbol for the element with a mass number of 27 is actually Al for Aluminum instead of Co for Cobalt. Mass number refers to atomic mass, not atomic number.
Aluminum has an atomic mass of 26.982 or 27.
The letters to unscramble are I, M, C, Al, U, and C.
The mystery element is Calcium.
Hope that helps.
